These guideline amounts are a starting point and your dog may need more food depending upon age, activity and temperament. In order to reach optimal body condition, you may need to adjust food intake. This represents the total recommended volume of food per day. You should divide the total recommended feeding amount by the number of times you feed your dog per day to get the actual portion size per feeding.
• Remember to have clean, fresh water available for your dog at all times.
• Because IAMS Healthy Weight Large Breed Adult Dog Food is complete and balanced for adult dogs, you do not need to add vitamin or mineral supplements.
• When introducing IAMS Dog Food, gradually mix it with your dog's current food over the course of 4 days.

Will return
I bought this dog food and did not read the ingredients first. I will return and choose another Iams product. I don't want to feed my dog food that is mostly corn meal. I want something that is mostly meat, fruit and some veggies. This dog food has listed corn meal as the first ingredient, so I know that is what it is mainly made of. I know you have products with meat listed first, and I will select one of those even if they are not for over weight dogs.
I not unhappy with Iams, but wish I had taken time to read the ingredients.

Frequent changes to packaging
I had been feeding my dog Iams Proactive Health Weight Control because of the low fat content. it has been working well for her for a few years. The packaging has changed twice recently which causes me anxiety. I wish the website would make a note of this when it occurs. The most recent change is to the name: Optimal Weight. It appears the ingredients are almost the same, but my dog did have some digestive issues with the new bag including colitis. I will not be buying Iams again.

15 lb bag becoming very hard to find
I fed my prior miniature schnauzer and my current young MS this kibble because it is lower in fat. Now becoming hard to find in 15 lb. bags. I'm not feeding her stale food or having to store huge bags. Very concerned about having to change brands. IAMs makes good dog food; product marketing is poor.

Tried & True
We've been feeding our dogs this Proactive Weight Control food for about 5 years now, and I highly recommend it! We tried changing their food, slowly of course, but our dogs either got stomach issues or plain refused to eat the other brands (Blue Buffalo and Nature's Domain). We're officially an Iams family for life. Helps keep my chubby girl's figure in check, and my younger boy's weight at a healthy level, and they enjoy the food. That's a huge win in my book!

Great results
My large mix breed, Lola has been losing at least two pounds per month. Not too much or too little for her health and exercise level. Her vet is very happy.

My chocolate lab Blue absolutely loves it.
He is a large dog with thyroid issues. This food suits him very much in maintaining his weight and health.

My Dog loves the bite size crunchy and the taste
Jack was put on weight control due to surgery which required him to be sedate (hard thing to do), All of my previous dogs were fed Iams. As Jack has free choice and he maintains his weight, I see no reason to change until he gets a little older. He is very fit now.
