Food sensitivities and intolerance are potentially serious problems that can result in sensitive or irritated skin, coat and ear conditions or even gastrointestinal upset. Dogs that have a food sensitivity or intolerance, also called adverse reactions to food, typically experience an abnormal response to the protein in the food. If your dog suffers from adverse reactions to food, it is even more important to feed them the right kind of food. Hill's nutritionists and veterinarians developed Prescription Diet z/d clinical nutrition especially formulated to support your dog's skin and food sensitivities. In fact, z/d is clinically proven nutrition to help avoid adverse reactions to food.
Key Benefits- Helps improve digestion and stool quality with highly hydrolyzed protein
- Helps eliminate food related causes of skin irritation and results in visible improvement to the skin and coat
- Helps maintain a healthy skin barrier and enriched with essential fatty acid
- Developed with a single carbohydrate source: Corn Starch
- Clinically proven antioxidants are added for optimal health benefits

Pets can be sensitive to sudden changes in their diets. For this reason, it is extremely important to follow a gradual transition plan to best support your pet's health and product effectiveness. 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.

| Days 3-4 | 50% | 50% |
| Days 5-6 | 25% | 75% |

Perfect food for Sensitive Furbaby
By LabMom on Aug 24, 2021
This food is by far the best and has helped my dog's skin allergies and tummy sensitivity. I use to by it at the local vets office and then they stopped carrying dog foods so I was happy to see it available here. My only complaint is that I always receive damaged and dented cans. The last time I ordered it, every single can was dented and one was even so damaged that the crease in the can appeared to have created a hole. I had to throw the can away - which is a costly waste. I don't understand why every can was dented, it didn't happen in shipping so I can only assume that they were packaged that way. It's very dissappointing to receive damaged cans.

Dog loves it but her Mom is tired of dented cans
By Peep on Aug 30, 2021
This a difficult review to write as there are two opposing responses. Rosie was prescribed the ZD diet and loves it. BUT I am absolutely getting tired of finding dented cans hidden in the middle of almost every case of Hillls Science Diet food received. Because this is a prescription diet, it is especially important to me. No, I have not reached out to Chewy. Why? Because I'm tired of doing so. I've tried to call the company.

Good dog food but pricey
By Presley on Sep 1, 2021
Got this on prescription for my 13 year old chihuahua mix who has had ear infections this year. Vet thought maybe change of food might help. Not sure if it’s helping yet, but sure is a nice texture and smells good. Better than the Blue i was buying at the grocery store. No oils or grease or goo in it.

Doggos love it
By BCBC on Aug 14, 2021
Like any other canned doggo food it naturally stinks but my 2 doggos love it. I use them as treats. I make little snack balls out of them and use them for pills, treats, ect. Since they can't have other treats because of their sensitivity it makes it easy and they love it. My doggos have been less itchy but I also use the dry food and hypo treats to go along with their strict special diet. No regrets!!!

Product is good, procedures need work
By Ilca on Sep 13, 2021
Grateful to be able to buy this but the back and forth regarding prescription that was already present caused problematic delays for a dog with food allergies. We were lucky enough to find some locally. We love Chewy but this system needs to be better.

Hill's Prescription z/d canned dog food can't be beat!
By Doglover on Jul 29, 2021
My rescue lab's always had ear infections and other allergies. After starting her on Hill's z/d dog food, most of her ear infection and allergies disappeared. Now, that she's a senior dog having difficulty eating her food due to worn-down teeth and a partial jaw removal related to cancer, I spoon-feed feed my dog z/d straight from the can. She loves it. Chewy delivers this straight to my door, so I don't have to worry about running out!

Dog won't eat
By roccogino on Aug 15, 2021
My dog will not eat this unless I mix it with meat or cheese. He's picky but usually will eat food after a while but not this. He was prescribed Hill's Prescription Diet d/d Skin/Food Sensitivities Canned Dog Food but it is not available in either flavor so tried this but won't buy again. We'll just keep with the dry dog food.

Fast Results
By Lori on Aug 5, 2021
Our local vet has been super busy in the past few months, and it's hard to get an appointment or even reach anyone on the phone to get a prescription. But when I put in my order with Chewy, they persisted in trying to contact the vet and eventually got the prescription filled and immediately mailed out my order. My dog and I thank you, Chewy!

Jill’s z/d
By Wolfie on Sep 10, 2021
My little guy has a sensitive stomach. His doctor prescribed this food for him. And he likes the kibble and moist food. As a result of eating the Hills z/d, there has not been any more episodes.

Dog wouldn’t even consider eating
By Matt on Aug 23, 2021
Vet recommended this for our dog with digestive issues. I’m giving 1 star because of the price and the look and smell of the food was really bad. Our dog wanted nothing to do with this. I know can food doesn’t smell great but this was bad.
