My dog needs to lose weight. Is her veggie diet enough protein?

Question

My border collie needs to lose weight within 3 months as my vet had told me. I am currently trying out for her meals 20% dry food and 80% vegetables. Is this not good for her? Does she require more meat to be in her diet for her to healthily and quickly lose weight? Pet's info: Dog | Border Collie | Female | spayed | 61.7 lbs

This won't be enough protein for Jaguar. Try a mixture of dry and canned food for her. Canned food has more water content, so it has fewer calories, but will still provide all the nutrients she needs. Best of luck.
