For dogs with kidney problems, Purina Pro Plan Veterinary Diets NF Kidney Function Canine Formula offers balanced nutrition to help support the kidneys. NF is formulated with low sodium, phosphorus and protein to help reduce the workload on the kidneys and help dogs with kidney problems feel better. It offers dietary benefits that provide optimal nutrition while meeting your adult dog's special needs.
Key Benefits- Kidney disease can occur in dogs of all ages, but it normally appears in that of older pets. It can't be cured, but with proper treatment and dietary management you can help make your pup much more comfortable.
- Purina Pro Plan Veterinary Diets NF has been specifically formulated to minimize the sign of kidney failure and help slow the progression of the disease.
- Restricted amounts of high-quality protein, low phosphorus levels, and a reduction in sodium all help reduce the workload on the kidneys. Added B-complex vitamins help to protect the body and break down nutrients.
- Designed for dogs with chronic renal failure, hepatic disease associated with encephalopathy, or any condition that benefits from restricted sodium levels.
- Made in the USA!

We just found out that our 16 year old Japanese Spitz has moderate kidney disease. He was not feeling or looking well for a while before we took him to the vet, and was not eating much at all. We decided to give the food a try (dry and this canned food) and he actually started eating it! He doesn't always eat when I offer it to him, but I try frequently throughout the day and he will usually eat a little chunk or two of the can when he does eat. His energy level and general health was back to "normal" after 1.5-2 weeks of immediately switching to the diet. I am amazed at how dramatic the results are in him since we have switched. Would definitely recommend this and the dry food.

I have the world's pickiest dog. He turns down everything but meat and cheese. No pasta, candy, vegetables, oh, and no sushi. He loves cooked salmon, but literally spits out raw salmon. There are only 6 kinds of NF food that I could find. A dry and a wet by 3 different producers. We literally tried all the other 5 and were really concerned he wouldn't eat this either. But he loved it!

My regular vet prescribed Hill's KD for my dog's kidney condition but but Johnny didn't like it and started losing weight. By chance Johnny's eye vet had some cans of Purina's NF which she gave me. Johnny is so happy now! He eats this food right up and has stopped the weight loss.

I'm hoping for the best. I am a huge fan of Purina, but I'm having a terrible time getting Sneaky Pete to eat it. I bought the wet food to mix with the dry to make it more appetizing. So, I'm currently baking and grinding chicken to get him to eat.

I am thrilled. I have a dog that has just recently been diagnosed with kidney disease. His veterinarian said it was very important for him to be on a low protein food and I was worried he would not like anything but his high protein Merrick but he is eating it and I am thrilled. Never did I think I would feed anything "Purina" but I can sure recommend this.

It’s hard for any dog to resist canned dog food so it wasn’t a problem to get her to eat it. I’ve seen an improvement in her daily life so far. I will continue to give her this canned along with the dry food.

What determines good taste for a dog? Our dachshund has kidney problems and we bought this food for her in hopes that she would eat it. Alas, she just turns away from her bowl even if we offer it to her with a spoon or even on our hands.

I did not realize that this was a solid mass of canned dog food, not in any type of gravy. After refrigeration, it was difficult getting it out of the can. While the dog isn't excited over any of the prescription food, she picks out chunks of this and spits it out.

I ordered ProPlan as Thought my dog would eat it, she will not. My other dogs love it, but the dog it was purchased for, does not like at all and refuses to eat it.

My sweet fur baby is in renal failure & this is the only NF food that I have found that he will even consider eating & he loves it.
