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% |

After 3 years of trial and error, this was the one.
By Dogmom on Jan 14, 2022
From now on, I’m just going to shut my mouth and listen to my vet. He’s been telling me to use this food for a while, but I was so stubborn thinking my home cooking was better for her. It took about 6 weeks before all her itching/licking went away, so stay the course and you’ll see results with this food. I’m amazed. Oh! Side note, my dog has severe allergies (reverse sneezing and itching/licking) and irritable bowel (practically everything she eats eventually gives her diarrhea/vomiting) and this food is perfect to handle both her issues. No more tummy issues and no itching/licking, while only eating this food and nothing else.

Dexter Approved!
By Sarah on Jan 11, 2022
When we first rescued Dexter he was an absolute mess. After trying out 7 different brands of dog foods, days of refusing to eat, and allergic reactions--we finally nailed it! Within a few weeks of starting this vet-recommended food our pupdog was noticeably happy and putting on much needed weight. He seems to love the taste and size of the small bites and spends less time scratching himself miserable. We are pleased with Z/D and the difference it has made in all of our lives.

My baby girl liked it a lot
By IsoBetriv on Jan 3, 2022
I thank you for the help you gave me when I need to buy items and medicines for my beloved baby and for sending me the food on time. With my heart broken, I tell you although she could not eat it completely because she passed away on December 30th. 2021. Thank you for everything

She Loves it!
By michiminni24 on Jan 2, 2022
So picky about treats and dry food. She mostly had only eaten canned for 5 years. She ate it first try! It's tiny enough for her lil apple head Chihuahua 6 pound mouth. But she still chews it! I think it smells Good too.

Z/d Prescription Diet Dogs
By cheesecakelady24 on Nov 17, 2021 top1000Contributor
Need to feed French Bulldog due to irritable stomach to see what she's allergic to. Surprised that I got the last bag of the small bites from Chewy and my dog seems to like the taste once I put a topper on as she is a picky dog. The smell is horrible to me but not to her. I have had to change brands of food at least five times, but this food she likes. I use the wet can food, which is pasty, as a topper and to hide her meds in. So far so good.

Good for the skin
By Dottie on Nov 10, 2021
MY itty bitty Maizy loves the food and I love it's good for her too! The matching treats are great too, I can give her a treat when I give my other two dogs treats and not worry about them harming her allergies, thanks so much for my peace of mind.

Prescription Science Diet z/d
By squirt on Nov 6, 2021
My Minnie really loves this dog food. She has food allergies and this was one of the food recommendations for her. I've wasted more dry food trying to find a product she loves and I am so thankful that she truly loves this dry food.

Love this food
By KFowler on Sep 27, 2021
After a year of not being able to figure out what was wrong, my new vet diagnosed my Chihuahua with IBD, and switched his food, which is never easy for him, he usually doesn’t like most of the foods I’ve tried. Much to my surprise he loves this. I have never seen him eat like he eats this kibble. You would think he was starving! It has made a huge difference in his digestive issues. We’re never going to switch.

Game changer
By Kellykay04 on Sep 5, 2021
In July our beagle started throwing up, it took forever and some begging but we finally found someone to squeeze us in for an endoscope. Vet said inflammation at the small intestine, we tried prednisone but she was still throwing up some. Finally we started this and it seems to be working! She’s getting back to her happy/sassy self again! Chewy was amazing to work with through this entire process! We can’t thank them enough!
