Royal Canin Veterinary Diet Urinary SO Moderate Calorie Dry Dog Food is a veterinary-exclusive dry dog food developed to nutritionally support your adult dog's urinary tract and bladder health. This formula promotes a urinary environment unfavorable to the formation of both struvite and calcium oxalate crystals. It increases the amount of urine your pet produces to help dilute excess minerals that can cause crystals and stones. Moderate calorie content helps her maintain a healthy weight. Relative Super Saturation (RSS) methodology is used to help lower ion concentration in urine, which contributes to stone formation. Lower urinary tract issues may be a recurring concern for some dogs. Talk to your veterinarian about keeping your canine on this urinary dog food for long-term urinary support.
Key Benefits- A veterinary-exclusive dry food for dogs prone to weight gain with urinary health concerns.
- Helps dissolve pure struvite stones and helps prevent calcium oxalate stones.
- Formulated with a moderate calorie content for ideal weight maintenance.
- Lowers the risk of crystal formation using RSS methodology for bladder health.
- Supports urinary health with an exclusive S/O Index, and creates an environment unfavorable to crystal formation in the bladder.

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.
| Transition Day | Current Diet | New Diet |
|---|---|---|
| Days 1-2 | 75% | 25% |
| Days 3-4 | 50% | 50% |
| Days 5-6 | 25% | 75% |

Can I use a veterinarian's authorization if it was written by a veterinarian out of state? Yes. We accept valid authorizations from anywhere in the United States, Canada, and U.S. territories such as Puerto Rico.
Why do I need a veterinarian's authorization?

Yes, but we'll need them to contact us and provide the full name of the pet's owner after the order is placed. This is so the veterinary clinic can locate your pet's records when we contact them. Email us at vetdiet@chewy.com or call us 24/7 at 1-800-672-4399.

It's working so far
By Andrea on Jan 18, 2022
Our fur baby has a very sensitive stomach so we switched foods. Apparently what we switched to didn't have specific products and she developed a UTI. This forced us to try a urinary SO food, which the vet suggested Royal Canin Urinary SO. She has been eating this food for approximately 2 months and things are going well. She really likes the food and there is no more diarrhea, no more blood in stool or urine. This food is more expensive and you need a vet prescription.

Truly Pitiful
By John on Nov 25, 2021
$70 + for a food my vet claims will cure my dog. OK. So, let me first say that the dog in question will eat virtually anything, pickles, wood, cow dung, anything!!!...well almost,...he wants absolutely nothing to do with this so called "food". So I pay the highly inflated price, and then must cover it in gravy, or mix it with something else just to get it in the animal. And I'll probably continue to buy it because my vet insists it's the only option. But the fact remains, a dog that eats anything, won't touch this stuff without camouflage.

Special diet
By Scarlett on Oct 18, 2021
Scarlett had the bladder surgery and has been put on a special food diet to help keep her bladder stones from returning. She loves chicken and beef flavored foods, but she has taken to this food and seems to like it. I do wish it was not so expensive especially since it is made only about 50 miles from where I live. But I am grateful to Chewy for being able to offer discount for setting it up for recurring order and it is something we have to have for a healthy little girl. I do wish it had some soft morsels mixed in for texture.

Moderate Calorie RC SO
By Diedre on Nov 16, 2021
I love the moderate calorie option but my little Cockapoo loves the tiny kibble in the Royal Canin SO formulation. Nothing wrong with the food, delivery, etc., she is just a little picky! I’m mixing it on with the full calorie and she eats it last!

A good choice
By Anniversarita on Oct 22, 2021
This is a good food, great nutrition and good for urianary problems, and it works for weight loss. For our little Schnoodle, however, it worked a bit too well, so we backed off and now mix it 25% into her regular calorie Royal Canin Uninary Diet dry food to keep her weight stable.

Not eating like she used to
By Roxy on Sep 9, 2021
Our dog has been on this food for about 5-6 years for crystals in her urine. The food has been doing it’s job and she used to LOVE it (even as her treats) and like another reviewer posted in August she is just not eating it like she used to. I even returned a bag and got another lot number and same thing. We have had to wet it, mix it and now I am feeling bad that I’m coaxing her to eat it if she’s not liking it or something is off. She has thrown up a few times but we have attributed that to drinking to much but now I’m wondering. I am going to try Hill’s and Purina’s prescription food for her urinary issues and see if that makes a difference.

Eats a steady diet of this everyday.
By Nicoah on Oct 11, 2021
A+ I like knowing I am feeding a healthy food. He eats it everyday. Thanks to Chewy, I never run out. I have been getting food from Chewy for several years. I like them and they never disappoint me. They want 50 characters and I have simply run out of words..............................
