Pets can be sensitive to sudden changes in their diets. For this reason, it is extremely important to follow a gradual transition plan to best support your pet's health and product effectiveness. 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.

Can Food Help My Itchy Dog?
Scratching, biting and rubbing are signs of what is happening under your dog's coat. Skin issues in dogs can be due to food sensitivities and environmental irritants.
About Food Sensitivities
Food sensitivities are reactions to normally harmless proteins in the diet and can occur with a dog of any age. A food sensitivity is determined by a food elimination trial which is performed under the supervision of a veterinarian. Your veterinarian may choose a diet that contains hydrolyzed proteins (ones that have already been partially broken down) or novel proteins (ones that your pet is unlikely to have been exposed to).
Signs of Food Sensitivity
Sensitivities to the proteins in your dog's food or environmental irritants can result in a variety of clinical signs and only your veterinarian can determine if a veterinary-exclusive diet is appropriate for your pet. If a diet change is recommended, for best results, it is very important to feed only that food while strictly adhering to your veterinarian's feeding directions.
What About Enviromental Irritants
Like you, your dog can have sensitivities to certain things in the environment such as pollens, house dust or even fleas. Your veterinarian may recommend a diet that contains optimal amounts of vitamins and nutrients which helps reinforce your dog's skin barrier.

RC vet diet selected protein adult PW moderat caloried dry dog food
By Yokes on Jan 21, 2022
This is a winner! May dog cannot have meat except for venison or hydrolyzed protein. I have tried several RC vet diet foods and he didn't like any of them. He is so happy with this one! I also like the fat, fiber, moisture ratio. My daughter's dog loves it also.

Dramatic Difference!
By ivymtn on Oct 13, 2021
My Sophie who will turn 13 in 5 days was really fading. Not wanting to eat anything, acting depressed, runny poops, etc. Our vet suggested Royal Canin PW food and it has totally changed her life! Her poops are prefectly normal, she is perky, wants to go on walks, and loves her food. We have tried both the canned and kibble- at this time she prefers the kibble. She is doing so much better- it is really dramatic! She even barks for her food and she has never been food motivated. I think she is allergic to chicken and we never knew. Our vet is getting the regular calorie version in as soon as it is in stock and we will switch back to that as she could use the calories. Thank you for producing My Sophie who will turn 13 in 5 days was really fading.

This works....its plain and simple.....it just works
By Peachamp on Oct 16, 2021
We have an 11 year old yellow lab, with Cushing's, who is very allergic to meat proteins. Once our vet tried him on this food, four years ago, it has made all the difference! He no longer chews on his paws all day long. The food allergies are under control. Chewy's delivery is very fast and I love being able to give Galen something that I know is right for him.

Helped for perfect bowel movements!
By TucksFam on Oct 6, 2021
We were on Hill's i/d low fat chicken and rice for some bowel and tummy problems. But, diarrhea still had not resolved fully. After speaking with an internist, she recommended trying this low fat diet, and it has changed our lives! Tucker had not had one incident of diarrhea since starting it, he is on low fat for possible GI issues which have not been defined at the moment. We cannot rave about this food enough! Worth the price!

Senior bulldog
By Bulldogmama on Aug 20, 2021
I was not a Royal Canin fan. Especially a prescription. But my bulldog has suffered with allergies too long. She had gained a few lbs. in the last few months too. Along with special allergy drops thru her vet, Royal Canin prescription diet & a couple of other things I use she seems to be getting thru the skin allergies. She likes the food & gobbles it up. As long as she is healthy I am happy.

great experience
By dogpal on Aug 19, 2021
This prescription diet has helped my dog tremendously. She is a pit mix almost 14 years old and suffering with IBS. Worked well from the first time she ate it. She loves it and is doing so much better. Even though it is expensive, I don't think she would have survived without it. She was in pretty bad shape before switching the food.

Chewy always makes it easier
By sheilajplus7 on Jun 30, 2021
We've used Chewy for several years for special foods as well as veterinary only foods. Chewy has consistently made it easier to get these foods than we ever imagined. My days of trying to lug that 30 lb bag of food off the shelf and into a cart and into my car and into my house, are gone. Chewy brings it to my door! Yay!
