Product Information
Full details
Burns Weight Control Chicken and Oats is a specialized diet formulated for overweight adult dogs and those prone to weight gain, offering a balanced approach to feline health through high-fiber, low-calorie ingredients. This hypo-allergenic formula utilizes wholegrain oats to provide a steady energy release, helping your pet feel fuller for longer periods. While it is highly effective for weight management and digestion, owners should note that it is designed primarily as a long-term maintenance diet and may not be suitable for high-performance working dogs requiring high-fat intake.

Troubleshooting
Dog is still hungry after eating
Ensure the recommended portion size is being followed and verify that no other calorie-dense treats are being provided throughout the day.
Soft stools during transition
Slow down the transition process by keeping the ratio of the new food lower for a few extra days until the digestive system stabilizes.
Dog refuses to eat the food
Try adding a small amount of warm water to the dry kibble to release the natural aromas and soften the texture.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To begin using Burns Weight Control, replace your dog's current food gradually by mixing in increasing amounts over one week. Ensure your dog always has access to fresh, clean water, as the high fiber content requires proper hydration for optimal digestion. Store the 12kg bag in a cool, dry place and keep it sealed to maintain freshness. Monitor your dog's weight weekly; if they continue to gain weight, check that they are not receiving excessive treats from other sources. If weight loss is too rapid, slightly increase the portion size according to the feeding guidelines provided on the packaging.
