Little old man with kidney disease
By Janna on Aug 28, 2021
Our vet had us start using this a couple months ago for our little old man (stage 1 kidney disease they found thru bloodwork & urine sample). He was already on the EN food for his tummy problems, but now we are halfing that with this food. He seems to like it for now, even tho the vet warned us a lot of dogs get picky with this. We’ve been pleasantly surprised because our guy is picky with his foods, but eats this up. So far, a couple months in, we feel he still likes this food and we don’t have to mix anything special in with this one to motivate him.

Beagle Reject
By Ejerry on Aug 8, 2021
Bella ate the first can but then rejected all future offerings which shocked us because, as a beagle, she eats everything. We did not like the smell or appearance of the food, even though it had all of the nutrients required for Bella’s diet, prescribed because she had high protein in her urine. We are awaiting the vet’s future examination as she went on a hunger strike until we returned to Farmers Dog.

She won't eat it
By SueM on Aug 5, 2021
It may 'work' but they have to eat it. She ate the first three times then turned her nose up. I must say it does not even look appealing; very dry compared to other canned food. Because she needs something for her kidneys I've ordered the dry to see if she'll eat that mixed with a more appetizing canned food. Will donate the rest of these cans to a rescue group.

Tango loves his breakfast and dinner
By Charlene on Sep 17, 2021
My dog (a black lab mix) took to this with no issue. I also like that the can has a pull top so I can throw a can in my car in case we need to feed Tango while out and about.

Process took over 2 weeks!
By Doggonepups on Aug 20, 2021
After a quite lengthily process, talking with 3 reps. and getting the run around, I finally got what I needed. My dog loves his special food. I hope it is helping him. No changes after 2 weeks of use

Kidney Dogs Are Picky Eaters
By Dalton on Jul 9, 2021
My Sheltie is in end stage kidney disease. He used to eat anything! I had him on a 100% homemade organic diet when he was first diagnosed and he LOVED it! Now he is very picky and had to have a stomach tube put in so he can get the nourishment he needs. I tried all the K/D foods out there. Some he will try, others he will not. My vet says dogs with kidney disease are like this. One day they will eat something, the next day they won't. Some food they won't even taste. My dog used to love Hills K/D stew - now he won't touch it. Same with Royal Canin. So, I think this is a good food because he will eat it from time to time, but we humans have to get past the fact that because we think it looks awful My Sheltie is in end stage kidney disease.

So, I think this is a good food because he will eat it from time to time, but we humans have to get past the fact that because we think it looks awful or smells, it is ultimately our pet's decision to eat it and dogs with kidney disease are very unpredictable when it comes to eating, especially if they are nearing end stage. It is unfortunate that Chewy won't sell individual cans because some of this is very expensive!! I was able to buy individual cans through my vet but I did get stuck with 2 cases of Hill's K/D stew! … more

We just had to start our Weimaraner on a diet for kidney disease. He actually seems to like this food better than his original regular food.

NF Formula Diet
By KarenE on Jul 12, 2021
Just started my puppy on this due to recent blood work indicating kidney issues. Hopefully this will help with that and keep her going for a while. The only drawback is she does not find it as tasty as her other food, so she is not eating it as well.

She loves it!
By Sunny on Aug 9, 2021
I just started her on this & the dry. She likes both & has no problems eating them. Have to repeat bloodwork in 3 wks to see if this food is helping her kidney levels.
