Help keep your pet feeling great with the Hill's Prescription Diet Derm Defense Environmental Sensitivities Chicken Flavor Dry Dog Food. From fleas and pollen to the dust inside your own home, there are environmental irritants everywhere. For many dogs, these irritants can cause a skin condition that may lead to scratching, sometimes excessively. But there is good news—many of these dogs can benefit from the right food. That’s why the Hill’s nutritionists and veterinarians developed this special recipe, which is formulated to help support skin recovery and normalize responses to environmental irritants.
Key Benefits- Helps strengthen skin barrier with a proprietary complex of bioactives and phytonutrients.
- Drives healthy skin from within with high levels of omega 3 and 6 fatty acids.
- Formulated to help soothe and nourish the skin and coat, helping the skin to recover naturally.
- A long-term solution to supporting a healthy immune system, with clinically-proven antioxidants.
- Made in the USA with no corn, chicken by product meal or artificial colors, flavors or preservatives.

We have had my dog on this food for about 2 weeks. Not long enough to judge, but so far she likes it, her fur has taken on a luster I haven't seen before, and she is not licking or scratching nearly as much. Fingers crossed that this does the trick! Expensive, but not as expensive as all of the vet bills for this ongoing issue. Also, having it delivered by Chewy has been great, and they contacted my vet promptly. Easy Peasy.

Our bulldog has a sensitive stomach and some skin issues. This food was an easy transition for his tummy and has greatly helped our skin issues. Chewy also makes the process so easy by working with our vet for approval and the auto ship so in my busy life I don't run out!

My pup has always been so itchy. With this food it has helped to calm him down.

So far, so good. She’s not licking her paws and from spring to mid winter our dog a pit bull licks her paws constantly. She actually has tuffs of hair in her paws which we’ve never seen because of her licking and severe allergies. She hasn’t been on the food too long, so after at least 4-5 weeks I’ll post an update

I have a pittie with bad skin: major hair loss, flaky skin, bumps/pimples, irritated eyes. He would have at least one major incident a year that would require steroids and antibiotics from scratching himself. He was on two types of allergy meds twice daily, drops for his eyes and fish oil as well as weekly baths in medicated soap. He was a mess, poor boy. I was able to stop all of the above after two months of being on this dog food (been on it since Oct 2017). He hasn't had any issues and this was a bad allergy season in AZ (hair hasn't grown back, but that's probably not fixable). I don't like how expensive it is, but it's the only thing that has helped him. I'm glad my vet recommended I have a pittie with bad skin: major hair loss, flaky skin, bumps/pimples, irritated eyes.

I was pretty skeptical that a food could help with my dog's allergies but we have not had any skin problems since we started the food almost two years ago. I have a weim, he is doing well on this product.

My dogs love this food and constantly beg for it. Haven't noticed a change in my dog's skin, especially my one with severe environment allergies but she's only had the food one month. I'm curious to see how she does after more time.

After hundreds of dollars in vet bills and allgery medications steroid shots countless other meds our German Shepherd has Finally gotten much needed relief with this food. He’s been treated for environmental allergies for two years without Much success. So far after being on this food for Six weeks his skin is clearing up His hair feels smoother and most of all he’s not constantly scratching and licking himself . This food is expensive but cheaper than allergy meds and vet visits that wasn’t getting results. Apparently his problem has been food allergies all the time.
