As dogs age, they may require food designed to help reduce nutrient excesses that could be harmful to their system. For example, high levels of sodium, phosphorus and protein can cause increased workload in the kidneys and heart. Kidneys are very important to the health of your dogs because they remove waste substances from the blood and maintain the normal balance of fluid and minerals within the body. Once kidney damage occurs, the consequences are usually irreversible. The heart is the most important organ in you pet's body, and factors such as age or weight may affect its function. Poor heart health can affect your dog's lifestyle and mood. Because the food your dog eats plays an important role in his or her overall health and well-being, at Hill's, nutritionists and veterinarians developed clinical nutrition especially formulated to support your older dog's kidneys and heart for overall health.
Key Benefits- Clinical nutrition especially formulated to support your older dog's kidneys and heart for overall health
- Reduced phosphorus helps minimize stress on aging kidneys and reduced sodium helps maintain normal blood pressure
- Reduced protein and targeted levels of high quality protein help decrease kidney workload
- Optimal fat levels to reduce pancreatic workload
- Increased levels of omega-3 fatty acids and controlled calories support kidney health

My toy rat terrier is a diabetic and we were told Merrick was the only low glycemic dog food. Of course we ordered it right away. After being on it for a few years he became really sick requiring hospitalization. The vet got him rehydrated and started him on g/d wet food. To my surprise he loves it and is still eating it. Thank you Hills for great food. And thank you chewy for beating everyone else's price. Awesome company. Auto ship is a great feature so I never run out of food.

As I was searching for a senior food that had no fish or fish oil in it, in popped Hill's Prescription Diet Aging Care (G/d). It had exactly what we had been looking for. We asked our Vet if this would work for her as a long term food. He said Yes. We ordered it ASAP. Since the first bite she has been growing stronger. Thank for Hill's and Chewy for helping a puppy that has been thru a lot continue to be a strong and lovely pup.

My Boxer has heart failure and I have the hard food and she loves it! So I thought I would try this with her hard food just now and then and oh my, she absolutely loves it! Haha if any is left in her bowl she will keep an eye on it from the other dog I have and she don’t want him near it at all. It’s funny she has never been like that so it has to be pretty darn good. I recommend it highly. Thank you Chewy.

Dog had to cut out protein from his diet being elderly and his kidneys becoming involved so this was recommended by the Vet. Had been buying there and was double the price in their office Chewy personnel were great with responding with emails and took care of contacting them for the prescription needed and sent the case to us quickly.

The Vet instructed us to switch to Hill's G/D dog food for health reasons. My dog will be 14 years old next week, 4/18/18. I've given my dog half a can every day for about two weeks. My dog appears to like it as he eats most of it. The food is difficult to get out of the can compared to the previous blend that we had been using for about 4 years. The food is packed solid, very thick, and I have to cut it up into small pieces to get it out of the can. Other than the task to get it out of the can, it appears that my dog enjoys eating it.

Our 15-year-old pomeranian is doing great on this new diet. No issues at all and, despite beginning renal failure, he is back to his old happy self. He runs around like a puppy.

My Tzu has been on several Hill's rx diets. All have done her well during different stages of life . I have 2 issues with this food . 1- u need a can opener to open the can unlike the others that have the tab top easy open. 2-although it's a canned food, it's very hard & I have to mash it down into her bowl.These are just in-convenience factors for the human serving the food which I hope Hill's will change. Especially changing to an the easy open can. Overall, the food has kept her healthy and she finds it digestible.

My two senior dogs don't seem to mind this food - I mix it in with some dry kibble and they eat most of it. The canned food (Turkey) is so dry and hard to work with. I opened one can and it seemed to have more moisture out of the two cases I received but so far thats all. Im not sure at this point if the food is dried (shelf life dried out) or that is the way the food is manufactured from Prescription Hills. Time will tell as I work through the rest of the cans.
