Finally normal stools!
By Julia on Apr 15, 2020
After 6 months of loose stools and intermittent emergency diarrhea with little to no answers from stool tests and blood tests, the vet finally prescribed this food thinking my dog had a food intolerance. Transition was a little difficult but after 2 weeks on it, he has had the best stools he's ever had! Usually 2nd and 3rd poops of the day get softer and softer, but on the Purina EN ALL his stools are perfect. Love the results and he's finally gaining weight again. He even loves the taste! Only thing is I wish this food wasn't so pricey...

Wonderfully Tasty
By Patti on Mar 26, 2020
Hello my name is Grady. After months of loose stools and many medications Mom finally found something that I will eat although with a bit of canned food added. After trying two other RX products by another company without any changes my Mom tried PPP. Following a 50/50 mixture and now integrated to PPP my stool issues are finally resolved. I am a bit rare for a golden retriever in that I am no longer food driven but continue to play and will hopefully gain weight. I have adjusted to my new food and Mom caught me knocking on some kibble before bedtime last night. Mom says thank you to chewy for their patience in trying foods and delivering my new protein packed food.

Amazing Results
By WillowsMum on Mar 22, 2020
Our German Shorthair Pointer was switched to this food because of digestive issues, within a week of being on it she was doing great. No more vomiting, stools were normal. After being on it for two months we have noticed that her coat has more shine, soft and smooth. I would say this..... if your pup has vomiting issues this would be a great choice to try. Customer service at chewy.com takes care of the prescription end, contact and communicates with your vet and make the ordering process easy.

Great food but you might wanna try Purina smart blend digestive! Cost friendly!
By Tiff on Jan 9, 2020
This food is Amazing! Vets had no clue why my dog was pooping soft stool and having diarrhea for months. Kept testing him for parasites. The 3rd vet wrote me a prescription for this food. Wow! My Boston terrier had uncontrollable diarrhea. It was terrible! And I was losing my mind. Lol.. After a day of eating this he is completely fine! Hard stool & not pooping everywhere! Potty training is actually working now. Update! So this food is pretty expensive. So I tried Purina smart blend digestive. It’s like 1/3 of the cost. And it’s actually working! My dog is eating it and still has solid stool. I just mixed a little with his regular food everyday. Until eventually I was just feeding him This food is Amazing!

But I also am on a budget. Buy a small bag and gradually mix it with his pro plan. Give it a try! My Boston loves it! And it doesn’t require a prescription. Win!! Win! … more

My pet is usually pretty picky when it comes to his dog food, but he likes these. He is 10 lbs and the kibble size is not too big or too small. My 17 lb and 6 lb dogs will also eat these without any issues.

Fixes gassy dogs!
By dogsbody on Jan 11, 2020
I was given a bag of Purina EN as a thank you for volunteering at a spay-neuter clinic. When I switched back to my regular food, I was surprised at how much gas my dogs had. This food really cuts down big time on doggy farts. They have smaller, more compact stools, and every one of my dogs likes it, which surprised me. My vet uses it for all of her hospital patients, as she says it doesn't upset their stomachs. The only downside is the price, and I should take away 1/2 star.

Amazing Food
By Karen on Nov 30, 2019
My Aussie has had stomach issues since we got him at 3 months old. We tried multiple foods with no success. Our vet suggested the Purina PPVD En. I was hesitant because of the cost and ingredients. I decided to give it a try because nothing else was helping. It made a big difference in just a few days! He was on it for about 4 months and I thought I could try to gradually switch him to a non prescription food. I thought the switch was going good and then after a month or so he was back not feeling good and having upset stomach. Went back to the vet and we put him back on the Purina PPVD. His stomach settled down right away and has been doing great since. I don't think we will ever My Aussie has had stomach issues since we got him at 3 months old.
