Solid poops finally
I have a Rottie who is only about 5 months at this point. We got him at about 9 weeks, and ever since, he's had issues with diarrhea even though we originally didn't change his food from what the breeder fed. He's been treated a few times for Giardia without change. Then a fecal sample said he had whipworm so we treated for that and huge tapeworms came out. I've scoured the internet. Apparently tapeworms shouldn't cause diarrhea. The puppy is otherwise fine. The vet said to put him on W/D, so he's been on it for several weeks now. No treats, nothing, except adding FortiFlora each day. Finally, we get solid poops---but even now, it's not every single time. I do worry my puppy isn't getting enough nutrients from a food that is mostly wood pulp just to make him poop. But I'm doing what the vet says. I really hope my puppy grows out of this...but at least for now it's much easier to clean up the yard after him.

Dog food price
I absolutely love the convenience and fast shipping of chewy, but the constant increase of prices over the past two years is a lot. They have increased 5 times in the past two years, will consider other vendors. Aside from that chewy is great, and this particular dog food is great for diabetic control!

My Dog Says it's Delicious
I'm mixing the w/d with the Victor's kibble I've always fed my pup. She likes it so much that she picks out the pieces of w/d to eat them first. My vet recommended it because she had several bouts of diarrhea in a short time and she might have colitis. So far, so good. My only concern is that it's nearly twice as expensive.

My baby crossed the rainbow bridge...
I believe Hill's products are really great and that they help in most times. Chewy always been really good with the delivery. Unfortunately, after trying everything possible for 2 months, my baby girl crossed the rainbow bridge on 02-20-23 leaving my heart broken.

Very thankful
I am very thankful for this product. One of my dogs has had a GI issue his entire life. Nothing worked long term. My vet suggested we replace a portion of his food with this RX diet and it has been a miracle cure!

GREEDY PEOPLE
As much as I need this for my diabetic dog, it's no longer financially affordable, BECAUSE YOU'VE RAISED THE PRICE MULTIPLE TIMES IN THE PAST TWO YEARS.

Does the trick but the dogs hate it
My dogs would not go near this food. I got smart and added water and some wet food and now they will eat it but they definitely don't like it. Their poops are super solid so it did the trick but they don't love it.

Prescription Diet
I finally switched to chewy when my vets office started being hit and miss with getting my dogs prescription food in with their orders. I signed up for auto ship and saved a bit too. Plus free shipping! This food is sky high everywhere. My vets office couldn't even get the 27 lb bags and the price is the same so it was a no brainer for us so our girl has her food and no more uncertainty!
