Toby's blood has been checked for three different reasons now and they say that each time his sugar/diabetic levels have been high. They suggested that I change his food to Hills W/D. The only problem with this is that weight loss sometimes follows this food...in July, Toby weighed 5.3, last week when we went back, he only weighed 4.6. Which means that we don't have a lot of room to play with here. I have to take him back to be weighed and keep a close eye on his wieght. Does anyone have experience with diabetes or this food and have any tips? I am open to any advice or suggestions that anyone may have.
