Any news on the test results? Hope all is okay.

Another idea is to keep him on the Wellness if he likes it and does well on it, but then maybe find an add'l Wellness brand food that has less protein - and mix the 2 together to 'cut' the protein content of the Core. Barring that, you could still keep the Core and find another brand with which to cut the protein.

Btw, why does the vet want to cut protein? Does he have kidney or liver issues? Or is he worrying about bone mass? As far as bone mass density, I really think the info out there is so conflicting. One study says that ONLY plant protein truly leeches protein from bones (ie, as related to senior diets, human or animal) while animal protein increases BMD....another study says the opposite. VERY frustrating.
