I absolutely agree with you, Diana. I have a bad feeling about giving her so little protein, so I am not going to do so. Even if she does loose weight on all those vegs. she won't be able to eat them all! Her little tummy would be very distended and surely it would give her indigestion to eat a huge amount of food like this!
Thanks for letting me know that your vet speaks highly of petdiets.com. This really helps with making the decision to use them. I am feeling very cross, though, about spending all that money on a veterinary dietitian and then not being happy with the recommended diet.
