He had calcium oxalate, thus the Hill's U/D diet. I know it's higher in fat but that's the trade off. I'd rather a few extra ounces on him than to ever have to put him thru surgery ever again. I was feeding him all excellent foods before, i.e. the last was Life's Abundance for a long time, Natural Balance, Canidae, and the funny thing is he is livelier now than ever before and he no longer has gooey stuff in his eyes. The weight thing does bother me though...probably because I am fanatical about myself.
