Great Food
By Elizabeth on Sep 8, 2020
My dog loves this food, it has more meat than vegetables which I think my dog appreciates. My dog is 14yrs old with bad arthritis in his hind legs, after he Started eating this food i saw almost an immediate improvement in his physicality. He is running around like a dog half his age. I’ve started taking him on short walks again, when his legs started giving him issues he would go lay down right away after a walk, now he wants to go outside in the backyard and be chased around.

He loves this food!
By Buck on Sep 12, 2020
My eight year old yellow lab in stage four renal failure LOVES this food! We have been cooking for him and just received our first shipment. He has his own large cabinet in our kitchen for all things Buckley and he was immediately interested when I put his food away. He eats this food with the same voracity as his home cooked meals. I, without question, recommend this food.

She loves this
By Annabell on Oct 22, 2020
A dog with kidney failure can be fussy about eating. My dog loves this food. It contains an appetite enhancer which apparently really works. Her food is now one less worry for me.

Bad packing
By Joebass on Jul 13, 2020
My order was delivered this morning (7/13/2020). There was four cases of Hills can food. The person packing the shipment did not put filler with the order keeping it from bursting open. This was the top and side of the order. I believe with this happening and with the poor handing of Fed X the package burst open. Eight cans were damaged. Then Fed X put them back in th box and did a terrible job of retaping the package. Please follow up with your people with the importance of packing properly.

HILLS SCIENCE DIET k/d
By hills on Jun 12, 2020
My dog was 15 years old when my vet suggested Hills. She is now 16 years old and still has a lot of "good" days. I believe one of the reasons she is still perky is this special diet produced by Hills. Maggie loves it. She comes to me and tells me it is time for her to eat. She has never done this before. I see a difference in my Maggie while taking this Hills k/d formula food.

My Precious Puppy
By Sissy on Mar 26, 2020
This food is special. My little pup has 30% kidney disease and her diet is restricted. I was impressed because she loves this over other brands. And believe me she has a very picky attitude. She is ten and a half and I’m so grateful I have found this special food.Chewy is special as they have a wide variety of foods to choose from and deliver as fast as possible. Chewy is the best.

Food helped kidneys but messy
By UBUREVIEW on Mar 21, 2020
So, it helped my dog who stopped eating due to poor kidney function but was messy. Big chunks of fake meat that for my dog was hard to eat so I had to break up. Was feeding by hand so very messy. But with 2 weeks on this food, she could transition to a dry kidney care kibble that she liked. So it did it's main job well, to help her kidney function.

My dog loves it!
By LeoFood on Apr 7, 2020
My dog is 12 years old and has kidney failure. I had tried the dry k/d and he didn’t want to eat it, so I bought the wet type. He loves it! He gets so excited to eat now.
