The food, besides being very expensive, ever since my dog started eating it (immediately after being neutered, shortly after becoming one), she defecates 4 to 5 times a day. Of course, she eats the recommended amount. The result is, naturally, weight loss. It has nothing to do with the corresponding food from the same company for puppies, which we were very satisfied with. It goes without saying that we will not buy it again. It was tested for a reasonable period of time in order to draw conclusions. The dog seems to not be getting the necessary nutrients and is losing weight due to the continuous defecations.
