Frequently Asked Questions

What conditions is Arden Grange VetCare Weight Control suitable for?

It is indicated for adult dogs requiring weight reduction or maintenance at a target bodyweight, and for dogs with diabetes mellitus requiring glucose supply regulation. Always use under veterinary guidance.

Why turkey and sweet potato?

Turkey is a lean novel protein — lower in fat than many common proteins and less likely to trigger sensitivities. Sweet potato is a naturally digestible, lower-glycaemic carbohydrate that supports steady glucose release — particularly relevant for dogs with diabetes mellitus or those prone to weight gain from high-glycaemic diets.

Can this be used for diabetic dogs?

Yes — VetCare Weight Control is indicated for glucose regulation in diabetes mellitus, with an initial recommended feeding period of up to 6 months. Always use under direct veterinary supervision for diabetic dogs, as dietary changes can significantly affect insulin requirements.

How long should I feed this diet?

For weight reduction: until the target bodyweight is reached, then continued to maintain that weight. For glucose regulation in diabetes: initially up to 6 months. Always follow your vet’s guidance on duration and reassessment.

How does this differ from the VetCare Weight Control cans?

Both share the same turkey and sweet potato formula and therapeutic positioning. The dry kibble format is convenient for daily feeding and portion control, while the canned wet format offers higher moisture content — useful for dogs who need increased hydration or prefer wet food. Both are nutritionally complete.

Is this suitable for puppies?

No — formulated for adult dogs only. Not suitable for puppies, pregnant bitches, lactating bitches, underweight dogs or dogs with increased energy requirements.

Do I need a prescription?

Arden Grange VetCare diets are veterinary nutrition products. We recommend veterinary consultation before feeding. Please contact us if you have questions about suitability for your dog.

What sizes are available?

Available in 2kg and 12kg (with free P&P on the 12kg).
