It is recommended to follow at least a 7-day transition plan before exclusively feeding your pet a new food. Start by mixing 75% of your pet's current diet with 25% of the new diet on Day 1 and Day 2. On Day 3 and Day 4, mix 50% of the current diet with 50% of the new diet. On Day 5 and Day 6, mix 25% of the current diet with 75% of the new diet. On Day 7, you can feed your pet the new food exclusively. Ask your Veterinarian about the best way to transition your pet to a new food.

German Shepherd wouldn't eat it
By RidgeDog on Apr 13, 2021
Prescribed by our vet we tried this food for years & just thought out G/S was a finicky eater so we'd add chicken broth, fish oil or other amendments to get her to eat. Finally she stopped eating it entirely so we switched to Dr. Gary's. Now she eats with vigor and bounces around with a lot more energy and spring in her step.

Swing and a miss
By Adrienne on Feb 18, 2021
My dog is the type who inhales her food.... She lives for feeding time. She ended up not liking this, it took her about a week of very slow eating to finally refusing it. I offered her other food and she went right back to inhaling it... So she just didn't like this for some reason. Just because it's fancy prescription food doesn't mean the pups will like it.

Hills jd worked miracles with my Springer
By Weasel on Jan 18, 2021
The formula for j/d has changed from previous years when it had salmon. Years back I had a Springer with bad arthritis in a shoulder. I put him n the J/d formula at age 8 and he hunted until age 13. This chicken flavor j/d is new to me and I’m using it with my 9 year old Brittany who is starting to limp after a hunt. I’m hoping this dog responds as well as my Springer did.

Good quality food
By Bella on Jan 5, 2021
Our Bella, a Yorkie tore a ligament in her leg and was hopping around a lot so we took her to the Vet. He recommended this dog food along with the canned version and it has really helped. Most days she walks normal. She loves the taste and the small bites works for her.

My dog’s joints are less swollen
By Susan on Jan 9, 2021
We use a daily combo of Hill’s jd, Dasuquin, and carprofen. Our vet says they each contribute in a different way to help joint function, so we keep doing all three. I can’t say how big the Hills jd effect is, but we are keeping the combo the same.

Don’t waste your money
By Deee on Nov 15, 2020
Was told by vet to give this to my 6 month old puppy. Compared it with the ingredients in his puppy food and it was the same but had omega 3’s and glucosamine and chondroitin. So basically just give you dog puppy food, cosequin and some omega 3’s and save yourself the money.

So far so good!
By AmyF on Nov 2, 2020
We are trying this food for our 12-year-old labradoodle who is very active still, but seems to limp and struggle with joint issues if he's been running and playing too much. He liked this food right out of the bag, and it seems to make a nice firm pick-uppable poop! That's very important when you live in an urban area.
