If your dog is a little overweight, a good bulking agent to replace high calorie foods is Rutabaga (called Swede in UK) it's very low in calories.
Grated fresh raw beetroot, or boiled, is a good addition to a diet.
In hot weather, or if the dog has a very high protein diet, and gets red or inflamed skin, along with reducing protein levels, boiled celery juice is good for cooling the blood.
Don't forget to subtract the calorie content of treats from the main meal, also check salt content of packet treats. High salt levels, not good.
