Well balanced food
By BullyMama on Mar 24, 2021
My dog has been sensitive to so many foods due to her allergies. I purchased this with the z/d wet food from Hills prescription line. I slowly added this dry food to her wet food to add a little flavor for my poor girl. She really enjoys it!! She did have to transition into it a lot slower than recommended but has been doing well with the combination!!! I cannot imagine what I would do if I did not have this and the many options Hills prescription offers! Thank You!!

Works Like A Charm!
By NicksDad on Feb 12, 2021
Our 13-year old male German Shepherd, Nick, has a VERY sensitive stomach and has been having a lot of skin problems (itching, licking, chewing). Our vet dermatologist recommended Hill's Prescription Diet d/d Skin/Food Sensitivities Potato & Salmon Formula Dry Dog Food and it appears to be working very well. He likes the food and his skin problems appear better.

Helped our dog a great deal
By LexieLovesIt on Feb 21, 2021
Our dog had ongoing digestive issues. After much consultation with our vet and a specialist, this diet was prescribed about a year ago. (She also takes probiotics, a vitamin B supplement and folic acid daily) She has had “ beautiful “ bowel movements ever since. Hooray

Feed is not consistent in taste color and smell
By TL100 on Feb 3, 2021
I ordered this feed in a small bag from vet and it was amazing. I then ordered a larger bag from chewy and the dogs will not touch it! It has an awful smell also. The first small bag was good but not the same product that originally came from my vet. I would not recommend this because each bag is not the same and it is extremely expensive.

LIFE CHANGER
By BingsMom on Apr 24, 2020
This food is a miracle worker. After nearly 6 months of trying to figure out what wouldn't upset my cavalier puppy's stomach, this food did it. Most dog foods (even those designed for dogs with sensitive stomachs) contains some kind of rice and chicken. After exhausting our options with conventional foods, specialty foods, and a home cooked meal, we came to this food. Within 25 hours, our dog's stool was perfect (something we had NEVER seen with him), his gas decreased, he stopped itching his ears and face, and he was calmer and happier. I am not sure if he was allergic to chicken or to rice, but I'm not about to find out because we are never going off this food. His coat is exquisite and shiny This food is a miracle worker.

I am not sure if he was allergic to chicken or to rice, but I'm not about to find out because we are never going off this food. His coat is exquisite and shiny, his weight is perfect, and strangers often comment on what a stunning dog he is. It was one of the quickest turn arounds I have ever seen in a dog. What makes the difference in this food is the novel protein and carbohydrate choices. Hills SD ensures that there is no cross contamination between their different foods. An 8 lb bag lasts our 17 pound dog a little over a month, and the price is reasonable. … more
