Royal Canin Veterinary Diet Hydrolyzed Protein Adult HP Canned Dog Food, 13.8-oz, case of 24

Received our first shipment from Chewy last week. Until then we bought this from the veterinarian. It is not the same! The label looks the same, but the food from Chewy was a totally different consistency and smell. Our dogs stools have reflected this change as well. We have a message sent to Chewy to find out what’s going on. With extreme allergies we can’t afford to deal with inconsistencies and hope this isn’t going to send us into a real setback with her skin.

My super finicky Yorkie was diagnosed with PLE and had to change her whole diet to a prescription hydrolyzed protein food only, and I was worried sick. She’s always been a picky eater and turns her nose up to some great foods. Well, I was worried for no reason because she loves it!! She eats it all right away, which has never happened before. Definitely recommend it for those also prescribed.

My Vet told me to try this for 8 weeks, to see if it helps my fur babies allergies. He has pretty bad allergies and nothing else has worked, so far. I’m looking now and I have to be honest, I don’t think I can afford to put him on this. It breaks my heart, I love him so much. We take very good care of him, however we don’t have the money for food that costs this much. It’s even worse, because it’s not possible to purchase a few cans, or small bag to see if he even likes it. I just don’t know what to do. They don’t seem to have the Purina HA vegetarian dog food, which is the other one I could try for him. I was hoping one would be reasonably priced.

When yeah have a dog with issues, it’s very expensive just with all the Vet visits, sprays, special shampoo, ear cleaner, wipes, special ear drops for allergies, shots, constant exams, along with normal things like flea and tick medicine, heart worm medicine, etc. How do they think on top of everything, all of us can afford food that costs this much for the rest of they’re life? It wouldn’t have been a problem a few years ago when I could work, but I’m now unable to work, it’s just my husband working now and I was the main money maker. I don’t know what to do. What’s with the first ingredient? I’m thinking that’s not great?? … more

My Scooter has severe allergies. He was in constant reaction, we took him to a dermatologist Vet and she suspected a food allergy. Royal Canin dog food was prescribed. Scooter loves the taste of this food and he is a picky eater so we were pleased he transitioned to this food with the first feeding. This food has helped with his allergies and he isn’t scratching and biting himself.

Great product and my dog loves the food, however gets delivered every two months with dented cans, up to 50% of the delivery have cans dented on a consistent basis.

Both of my dogs have been on Royal Canin prescription diets for several years. They used to be on the low fat intestinal diet now they've been switched to the Hp. I give them their medicine in the wet food. So I'm not happy with the texture of this. I try to put their pill inside the food and its dry, rubber like texture just seems to crumble.

We had to take our IBD dog off hills z/d which he did like but due to his elevated vitamin d level it was time to get him off that food. Our vet preferred switching to Royal Canin hydrolyzed and we are having a time of it getting him to eat this and he isn’t a finicky eater. He just looks at me like Why mom :( The RC hydrolyzed canned seems more dry I add warm water to the kibble and canned combo we feed and it doesn’t help. $200 later I’m hoping he will eat this but it’s currently not working well for us.

The price is higher than competitors. Good delivery under difficult circumstances (Covid 19 restrictions). Also, I received double the order for some unknown reason.

The product has helped save my dobie from awful skin allergies. But the cost of a case of canned food has gone up $20 in 3 years. Similar increase in dry food cost. In my opinion, this is price gauging of a medical necessity. There is no way cost of producing it has gone up that much in this timeframe. It’s disappointing that manufacturer/supplier and Chewy would allow this kind of price shift for a medically necessary product.

My poor English Setter has IBS, he’s 6 years old now but he was the tiniest of his litter! He’s been on this food for a couple of years now after having vomiting, diarrhea & a bloody stool at times, thankfully it works great with his stomach. I love that you get 24 cans & you can order from Chewy because it last longer & I don’t have to go to the store each time or do any heavy lifting (though I do thank my FedEx guy all the time!) Thanks Chewy!
