The Hill's Prescription Diet k/d Kidney Care with Chicken Dry 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 and supports the natural ability to build lean muscle daily.
- Enhanced Appetite Trigger (E.A.T.) technology helps increase the appetite and food intake.
- 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.
This product requires a veterinary prescription. Simply provide your vet's information during checkout and we'll follow up to confirm the prescription, or email a copy of your prescription to vetdiet@chewy.com and we'll get your order out right away.

My vet suggest Hill's for my dog. At first she ate it with no problem. However, in a few days she didn't want to eat it,which is strange for a beagle to be picky. I bought Hill's canned food and mixed it with the dry. She eats it a little bit better, but really only eats the canned food. Will be trying a different brand of dry. Don't know if this food is helping, it is to soon to tell. Service from Chewy is great and will continue to buy from them.

Our dog needs this special diet due to chronic kidney failure and the price here is more affordable than purchasing it through our vet. Our vet is also a 30 minute drive away, so having it delivered is a time-saver. Our dog was previously on a grain-free diet, but she has tolerated this food well and her activity level and coat health have improved since making the switch (she is 13 and 1/2 and in late stages of kidney failure).

VERY PRICEY but my 15yo rescue blonde lab/boxer mix is in beginning stages of kidney disease/failure so I've just switched her to this (and the k/d canned) from Hill's Science Diet Large Breed; thankfully she loves it! I joked with vet that for the price I could be feeding her steak twice a day and she said, "yes, but it wouldn't be nearly as good for her"! ;)

Our 13 year old border collie needs this dog food to help with the meds he takes for his heart condition. What I love about Chewy.com is how easy the Autoship function is. I got a reminder before the second shipment would have been sent -- checked how much was left of the original shipment -- and was able to set a more accurate frequency.

When my vet said my dog needed to be changed to a diet that was better for his kidneys I was worried. My dog has a delicate stomach and cannot eat multiple things without upset, I was also worried if he would eat it or not. Fortunately neither was a issue. Its expensive but everywhere I priced it is about the same and chewy delivers.

The product no doubt is as advertised, but our dog recently diagnosed with kidney disease absolutely refused to eat it. Even when mixed with his usual kibble in the treat dispensing toy, he selected only the old food, and left all the Hill's kibble on the floor. We eventually had to switch to a different brand kidney prescription diet.

We have not opened the bag yet. The vet suggested it for her kidney disease and stomach ulcer; but I’ve been making her food as she wouldn’t eat anything not puréed. She just started eating from the small bag we bought earlier at the vet. We will let you know as her condition improves. We are hopeful it will be great.

Scout, our 10 year old greyound, loves her new food! We are also adding a canine herbal kidney supplement. Within a week, she is acting noticably more energetic. A routine blood test discovered a kidney issue without our observing any symptoms of a problem. It's remarkable how much peppier she is acting!

This food was advised by my vet when we found that my againg dog was starting to have kidney issues. The price however is enough to give one a stroke. If somone is on a fixed income the poor dog might not get the food. Your folks were so helpful and pointing there was another food available, less expensive and if my vet OK'd it we could change my order to this food. Now how many people go out of their way like that. I've always been happy to work with the Chewy folks-- they really are dog friendly

My 13 year old Bailey, who is part Border Collie & part Australian Shepherd, was diagnosed with kidney disease, so far I have seen a change in her energy and livley hood increase, we go for a recheck in about a month to see how well her kidneys are reacting.
