Description
The Hill's Prescription Diet k/d Kidney Care Chicken & Vegetable Stew Canned Dog Food is clinically proven nutrition that can help transform your pet’s life. As pets age, damage to the kidney tissues may occur, which affects the kidney’s role to function properly and filter toxins and waste from the blood. It is irreversible, and will lead to further loss of kidney function. This may also decrease their appetite, which could eventually result in the loss of muscle mass. And so the Hill’s nutritionists and veterinarians created this special diet, which supports your dog’s kidney function and helps to sustain muscle mass—in fact, the nutrition of k/d is clinically tested to improve and lengthen the quality of life.
Key Benefits
- Protects vital kidney and heart function with proven nutrition developed by nutritionists and veterinarians.
- Boosts vitality and energy and supports the natural ability to build lean muscle daily.
- Made with controlled phosphorus and low sodium, plus therapeutic levels of l-carnitine and omega-3 fatty acids.
- Also includes high levels of essential amino acids, which are the building blocks of protein.
- Made in USA and clinically tested to improve and lengthen the quality of life.
Special Note
Hill's Prescription Diets require a veterinary prescription. This product will not be shipped until a copy of a valid prescription authorization is faxed to 1-800-619-7973 or e-mailed to rx@chewy.com.

We have a German Shepard Rottenwieler mix who will be 15-yrs old on Halloween 2017. Just before Christmas 2015 this CHOW-HOUND stopped eating, not even try milk or chicken broth. We were ready to end her suffering when our VET offered to take the old girl to our Vet's Home to give her around-the-clock IV, attention, etc., charging us only for actual medications while waiting for lab results. Finally, Lab results indicated Kidney problems because of age. Since then we have been feeding her Hill's Prescription Diet K/D roughly 3/4-cup Dry and 1/4-can alternating between Original and Lamb for variety twice per day, roughly half of what she ate when she was in her prime.

Coincidentally, Angel stopped eating on 15-Aug and on the mornings of Aug 16 thru 18 we found where she had vomited at the back door overnight. 19-Aug breakfast we tried 1/2-can of the Hill's K/D Chicken Stew and she inhaled it and has been eating normally ever since! Sure, she may have had a short-term bug but the Hill's K/D Chicken Stew was mild enough to not upset her stomach while she was recovering from not feeling well yet smelled interesting enough to her to get her to eat. … more

I took my pom puppy in to get neutered and when they did a routine blood test they found his kidney function was very poor and were concerned he might have a congenital kidney issue. After 4 weeks of feeding him both the dry and wet kd food I just got his labs back and they are now well within the normal range! I now have an incredibly energetic little Auggie! Poms are very picky about food and after a week or so he now eats it no problem. I have another 9 year old pom with urinary issues that were also reversed on the Hill's urinary food. I will never feed my dogs anything besides a Hill's Science Diet food! Very happy!

Our Vet had recently discovered high levels on Casey's bloodwork, re: Kidneys. Another test was almost normal. I had tried Hill's Regular canned diet. I've had her tested 2 times since, and the phosphorus level had gone up. She's almost 14, so I thought I'd try a different flavor. I got her the dry this time, as well as the cans. Happy to report she loves it. I'm shocked. Thanks to Chewy for the understanding ear (I go on...) She seems better, she's hungry- YAY!

Goodie was put on k/d when she was recently diagnosed with early stage renal failure. Since her previous diet consisted of kibble with a bit of canned I wanted to do the same with her new diet. She was able to transition easily to the new food. She enjoys it and I am confident she is getting the nutrition she needs and not too much protein which was an issue with her previous diet.

Customer service is amazing! The representative spent as much time as needed on the phone to discuss the issues with my dog and went above and beyond to make recommendations. He never once rushed me. Chewy even phoned my vets office to obtain the needed script for the food as well. Mabel (5lb Pomeranian) is a finiteky eater and seems to like variety. I wanted to try the k/d stews and love that they come in the 5.5oz cans which is helps me manage her caloric intake as she is on a diet of 175 kcal/day (I also feed her k/d kibble as well) She still seems to prefer the lamb but likes the chicken stew. Beef stew not so much as of yet. PS. The representative sent us a hand written get Customer service is amazing!

My dog was just diagnosed with decreased kidney function. She is a very picky eater and I was worried she would not like a different food. She loves it! It is available by prescription only but Chewy contacted my vet and got the rx approved the same day. Also very fast delivery. I love this company!

Hi, my name is Jack and I have kidney disease. My mom feeds my KD dry food for kidneys and I just don't like it anymore. My mom bought this food and I love it!! She mixes it with my dry food so it tastes better now. She thinks I don't notice but I do!!!

By MomofMilo on Jul 22, 2017
I was hesitant about whether or not he would like it, but when your options are limited and you know the one thing you can control is his diet, you'll try just about anything. My longtime furry boy has been part of our family for 15 years and I'm hoping even longer. This food gave us hope as he is eating it and slowly gaining the weight he lost. Thank you!

LucyLu was diagnosed with kidney failure and a tumor on her liver...ugh! Shortly after diagnosis, she lost her appetite and let me say: Lucy would eat anything!! This product was a life saver... Not only did she start eating, but it put a bounce in her step! Thank you.

Hill's k/d Kidney Care prescription diet is not available in stores. Chewy made it easy to order and receive--Chewy even made it easy to contact our vet to get a copy of the prescription sent to them! Canned food came undamaged and in 2 days as promised. Great Service!
