If your dog inhales their food and immediately looks for more, or if the vet has mentioned they're carrying a few extra kilos — you're not alone. Weight issues in dogs are incredibly common, and most owners assume the answer is simply feeding less.

It's rarely that simple.

Why dogs struggle with weight

Most commercial dog food is calorie-dense and low in fibre. Dogs eat it quickly, their stomach empties fast, and they're looking for more food within an hour. Over time this leads to overeating, weight gain and a dog that always seems unsatisfied.

The missing piece is fibre.

What fibre does for weight management

Soluble fibre absorbs water and expands in the stomach, creating genuine physical fullness. It also slows the rate at which food moves through the digestive system, which means your dog feels satisfied for longer after each meal.

This isn't a trick; it's basic digestive physiology. The same reason humans are told to eat more fibre when trying to manage weight applies directly to dogs.

Fibre also helps regulate blood sugar levels, which reduces the energy spikes and crashes that drive hunger between meals.

How Logs helps

One scoop of Logs on your dog's food once a day adds the fibre their diet is almost certainly missing. No calorie restriction. No expensive prescription food. Just a natural daily supplement that helps their body do what it's supposed to do.

Our greyhound Honey was a food-obsessed dog who never seemed full. Adding fibre to her diet made a noticeable difference within two weeks.

Good dogs deserve good Logs.
