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

Still has Farting Problems
By BMAC on Apr 14, 2021
We are in the process of figuring out my dog's food sensitivity. The vet prescribed the Z/D diet to help get him back on track and to let his gut recover. He's been on the dry kibble for the last couple months which has been great. I thought I would try the canned food to give him a LITTLE bit of variation to his diet (he literally has not eaten anything but the kibble for months). So I gave him a tablespoon to start with. The canned food still gives him gas, even though this food is supposed to be "intolerance" proof. I mostly wish there was a way I could have bought 1 can instead of a box because now I have 12 cans of expensive dog food I can't use.

The smell & texture of this can food is gross but my dog loves it
By Chelle on Apr 8, 2021
I’m leaving this product 5 stars because it’s a hypoallergenic dog food and my dog really enjoys it. Now for my opinion- The smell of the can food is terrible and it has a texture similar to peanut butter. I have an 11 year old white pitbull that has many allergies. He does very well on this food- so I deal with the weird can food. Ps: buy a can opener if you don’t already have one. This can food requires a can opener.

I was so surprised
By Sandi on Apr 22, 2021
When my Vet told me that my Mardy (Coton de Tulear) 14-year-old and his mother Lexi 15 had to go on a low ingredients diet food I thought that will not work. I have the pickiest dogs in the world. You can imagine my shock when the bowls were completely empty. I have gone from making food for years to top delivery foods on the market and they eat this better than any of it.

Surprisingly still eating this RX food
By Mtgsolver on Mar 17, 2021
So let me start out by stating I have a Very picky eater. She has developed severe allergies and has been on allergy medication for a couple years now. She became diabetic last year which resulted in more issues. After 3 weeks on the Hill's Science Z/D she's still eating this food and we're 2 weeks past her normal timeframe for her last allergy shot. Starting to see some light scratching that we normally see much earlier. Fingers crossed that she's on the way to less or no additional allergy medication. One last comment... as mentioned she is a picky eater... wouldn't eat the Hypoallergenic HS treats. That's not uncommon for dry cookie type treats. So Chewy refunded that portion So let me start out by stating I have a Very picky eater. She has developed severe allergies and has been on allergy medication for a couple years now.

Best Food for Food&Skin allergies
By BullyMama on Mar 24, 2021
I can't say enough on how much I appreciate this food for my extremely sensitive American Bully! I even tried another brand that bragged they had more protein and crude fat. Well the other brand caused my dog to have severe gas, diarrhea and bloating. Hills Prescription z/d has just the right amount of crude fat and protein for my dog! Her system has stabilized and her coat is healthier! She sleeps better (I do too) since the z/d food does NOT upset her GI tract! She has gained weight now and is full of life!!

He loves it
By Dagma on Feb 27, 2021
Our little guy has gastritis and possibly IBD. The vet put him on this for at least 30 days with no other food allowed. We got a few cans from the vet and then ordered a case from Chewy. He loves it. He is doing much better. Once the 30 days is over, we will begin introducing him to the dry food, and then adding one thing at a time to his diet. When we opened the first can we got from Chewy, the food was crumbly and darker brown and so were others we opened. I contacted Hills to see if they had changed their recipe, and they said it sounded like it had been frozen. I then called Chewy and they gave me the option of having my money refunded or sending another case. They said if the second Our little guy has gastritis and possibly IBD.

By Ruby on Mar 7, 2021
My baby has been having problems with diet since I adopted her. It appears that her tummy gets used to it and the problem starts all over again. I have to give her reglan along with the food and also she has to get flagyl. After all this the poor baby spits up but not as bad as before but she still spits up.

Prince wet food
By Prince on Apr 10, 2021
Prince enjoys this wet food. I use it to give with his medications. I also place the food in his plate and he’s so happy eating his food that I’m able to give him his injections with no problem.
