Should I consult my vet before starting this diet?

Troubleshooting
Dog is hesitant to switch to the new food
Try mixing in a small amount of warm water or a low-sodium, dog-safe broth to enhance the aroma.
Minor digestive upset during transition
Slow down the transition process by keeping the ratio of old-to-new food consistent for an extra 2-3 days before increasing the amount.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
When introducing Fat Dog Slim to your dog's diet, always transition gradually over 5-7 days by mixing it with the previous food, slowly increasing the ratio of the new kibble. Store the bag in a cool, dry place and ensure the seal is closed tightly after every use to maintain the freshness of the fats and oils. Because this formula is intended for weight management, it is compatible with most adult dogs, but should not be fed to puppies, pregnant dogs, or nursing dogs who require high energy densities. Always ensure your dog has constant access to fresh, clean water.
