I have an 11 year old Doberman. She is spayed and basically healthy. She has a tendancy to be on the heavy side and especially as she's aged and become less active. I know it's important to keep her on a diet designed for seniors but I'm having a hard time finding something that also is designed to keep her weight down. I feel like I'm starving her (she gets about 3/4 of a cup 2x a day and she's an ideally 85 lb dog) and I'd like to give her something more appropriate. She has been on Science Diet active longevity (dry) for about 6 months and before that she was on the mature adult large breed. I struggle with all the choices because I don't know what is most important as far as senior, diet or large breed formulas. I haven't been terribly impressed with the Science Diet but it did seem to do better than the others I tried. Anyway I'm at a loss so any help would be great so I I'm not just doing trial and error constantly! Thanks!
