Did some research just looking at fat/protein % as well as overall calories. Here’s the info on the current food, chicken soup:
Crude Protein 26.0% minimum
Crude Fat 14.0% minimum
Crude Fiber 4.0% maximum
335 cal/cup
Victor high-pro:
Crude Protein 30.0% minimum
Crude Fat 20.0% minimum
Crude Fiber 3.8% maximum
429 cal/cup
Victor Select Chicken Meal Brown Rice with Lamb Meal:
Crude Protein 24.0% minimum
Crude Fat 12.0% minimum
Crude Fiber 3.8% maximum
391 cal/cup
The high-pro is clearly the best food, I’m just concerned with it being too many calories- that would be a significant bump from what she currently eats, and she’s an ideal weight right now. I’m still considering the high-pro and maybe even the chicken recipe as that is closer in line with what she currently east (even though it is likely only ~3.5 stars), but really could use more info. Biggest concern is the extra calories and if those are a cause for concern – looks like for a ~48lb dog all recommend around 2.5 cups so there isn’t any evening out due to serving sizes.
