Im in a bit of a pickle. My mom wants to switch our dogs from Hills to a homemade diet. Ive tried talking her out of it but that hasnt gone anywhere. I think ive at least convinced her to call our vets for advice. Are there any like pet nutritionists who could at least attempt to formulate a balanced diet so she doesnt screw it up.

Yes, there are board-certified veterinary nutritionists that can help with formulation of a home-cooked diet, often at your closest vet school, although some are offering telemedicine at the moment - ask your regular vet for a referral. balanceit.com is written by veterinary nutritionists and has recipes and supplements for home-cooked foods and is trusted by a lot of veterinarians with clients that want to home-cook pet diets.

I will say that home-cooking a diet is far more expensive and time-consuming than using kibble and there is a demonstrated STRONG tendency that only something like 10% of people who start out creating a balanced home-cooked diet with consultation from a veterinary nutritionist will continue to make that same diet over time. They either “drift”, which means that they select a substitute for an ingredient due to convenience or cost, or go back to using kibble. I’d have to look up the study for exact numbers. Home cooked diets are also implicated in the FDA’s investigation into diet-related heart failure. 

Best of luck!

We just took my cat to the vet today, and our vet wants to cut her food down to a single 5.5 oz can of food a day. However, the feeding guide on this food says you should give 3/4 to 1 oz of food per pound of body weight, and our target weight is to go down from 12.7 pounds to 12 pounds. I intend to follow what my vet told us to do, but I guess my question is whether this seems like a reasonable idea or healthy amount, because feeding only 5.5 ounces seems like too little to me. Thanks in advance!

For extra context for my last ask, we feed her a can and a half (about 8.25 oz) now, which according to the feeding label, is close to the amount recommended by the guide.

This is a really great question for you to ask your vet. We cannot give specific veterinary advice here since we have not seen or put hands on your pet. In general, pet feeding is not about volume; rather, about calories. And, the guide is just that - a guide. It is not meant to be the end-all, be-all for every pet. Your vet will be able to explain to you why they are making this recommendation for you.
