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.

Why should I buy veterinary diets from Chewy?
We offer competitive prices and free shipping on orders over $49. Plus, you'll save more if you sign up for automatic refills with Autoship at Checkout. Chewy experts are available 24/7 to answer any questions you have.
How do I order veterinary diets?
- Search for the diet your veterinarian recommends and add it to your cart. You can purchase your veterinary diets along with any other items you need.
- At Checkout, you'll be asked for your pet's name and veterinary clinic information so we can confirm that the item is authorized by your veterinarian.
- Place your order and we'll take care of contacting your veterinarian. If you have a copy of your authorization, you can expedite the process by uploading a scan or photo of it to the Prescriptions section in your account or your order confirmation. You can also email it to vetdiet@chewy.com.
If your clinic needs more information from you or recommends a different diet, we'll let you know immediately.
I have a copy of the authorization from my veterinarian. Can I send it to you?
Yes. If you have a paper copy of your veterinarian's authorization, you can upload a scan or photo to the Prescriptions section in your account or your order confirmation. You can also email it to vetdiet@chewy.com.
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?
Veterinary diets are formulated with the precise ingredients and nutrients needed to address specific medical issues. Because these diets are formulated for medical issues, veterinary authorization is needed to advise you on the best way to give them to your pet and to monitor your pet's health while they are on the diet.
Can someone else (such as a caretaker or family member) place an order for my pet?
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.
Do authorizations expire?
Yes. Your veterinarian will tell us when your authorization expires and how many refills you have before they'd like you to check back in with them.
Can I set up automatic refills? Yes. Sign up for Autoship at Checkout and select how often you need refills. We'll automatically ship your veterinary diets for as long as your authorization allows. If you run out of refills or your authorization expires, we'll automatically contact your veterinarian for a new authorization.

She Eats It Up!
By HuskyMom on Apr 2, 2021
Our oldest Husky was recently diagnosed with diabetes and put on Rx Royal Canin Glycobalance dry dog food. Because she was so ill and not eating, we didn't have time to slowly transition her from her previous food. We simply started feeding her the Royal Canin. She immediately ate it with no problems. She loves the taste and has been able to keep her weight down. I'm very pleased with this product.

Faster than a speeding Springer!
By Justice on Feb 5, 2021
Hi. I’m Justice an English Springer Spaniel and now I am diabetic. My great vet is 45 minutes away so getting a take out meal is rough. Chewy was able to ship my special food in 24 hours! Wow! Looking forward to those automatic shipments too. Now my person can relax and take me for more rides in the UTV in the orchard!

Out of stock everywhere except Chewy
By MITCH on Jan 19, 2021
My 12 y/o dog is diabetic and can only eat Glycobalance dog food. I was unable to find any place that had stock. Not only did Chewy have both dry kibble and canned, but at a good price. The food was shipped for free and it was delivered at my door in 2 days. I am on "Auto refill" so I will have the food when I need it! I have previously ordered from Chewy and been very satisfied. Importantly, their Staff is very pleasant and knowledgable. Thank you Chewy!!

The diabetic doggy
By Gadget on Jan 23, 2021
New life with my mom. Have to have shots twice a day. Twelve hours apart. Plus more exercise(her butt is big)but is getting smaller cause I need to walk more. Plus I love spending time with mom. We've found lots of new places to walk. I have marked most of s.w.Houston. We are both eating better. I've lost over 10lbs thanks to the special food we get from Chewy!! Chewy is my fav for my new diet. Thank you Gadget

way too expensive
By bbeer on Mar 11, 2021
I understand that this formula is more expensive than most dog foods. but my last auto shipment was a lot more expensive than my previous shipments. I will go back to buying it from my vet.

Keeps my Diabetic Dog Healthy
By MollysMom on Feb 23, 2021
This food is recommended by my Vet and now I see why. Molly is a 13-yr old Cavalier and suddenly showed as a diabetic. She's been on this food for a year and has held stable and she's not put on weight either! Success!
