Not crazy about it
My pup isn't crazy about the g/d dry food so I mix it with the g/d wet food which she likes. Sometimes she'll eat it all and other times she'll pick the wet food out of it and leave the dry food there. Have tried wetting the dry food but she doesn't like it like that either. In order to get her to eat it I have to hand feed her or put a bite of something she likes in it and she'll usually eat it once I get her started. I want her to get dry food too which is better for her teeth and bowels. It's a bit hard too.

Love the taste!
I'm a 14 year old Pomeranian recently diagnosed with an enlarged heart and calcium oxalate stones in the kidneys and bladder. Hills recommended this food as optimal for my needs, and to be honest I LOVE this stuff! Always a picky eater, I eat this stuff like it's candy. Nice sized kibbles for a petite girl such as myself, even my old teeth are able to handle the tasty bites. Thanks Hills for making such good food!

My 16-yr old yorkie-poo LOVES it!
My little guy has a worsening heart murmur and needs to be on a special diet that supports heart and kidney function as well as provide the proper nutrients for a super-senior dog. We've tried other brands of prescription food, but it became a struggle to get him to eat it. We're trying out Hills Aging Care g/d kibble and so far our pup eats ever morsel and gets very excited (if not demanding) for his 2nd meal!

Hills dog food
My dog is 14 and has some aging problems. Her appetite is not the best so I was excited to see that she seems eager to eat and is finishing her portion since I switched to the g/d bag. I’m very pleased with this product.

Easy To Chew Dog Food for My Aging Dog
Vet prescribed this food for my Shih Tzu due to her age (12/12 birthday - 15 years) So far, she likes it because it is easier to chew. Food is a small circular thin flat disc. We are gradually implementing it into her diet and since we started, I noticed she is eating more food which is good since she is underweight now. Love having it shipped right to our front door too.
