Royal Canin Veterinary Diet Gastrointestinal Low Fat Dry Dog Food

Our Veterinarian prescribed this special food for our dog. Our dog loves it, and she is no longer vomiting. The proof will be in the results at our next doctor visit. We ordered this on a Friday morning and knowing it would require approval from our Vet, I expected it would take a bout a week. You can imagine my shock when it arrived the next day - on a Saturday. Website works great and obtaining approval was a non-issue. And thanks for the new customer coupon code - we will be back.

My previous Shih Tzu was on this kibble for being overweight when he was 13 years old. He lost 2 lbs within a year. He continued on this diet for another 2 years. He was able to maintain his ideal weight while on this kibble. He got to live for 17 long dog years. Now, my 11 yr old Shih Tzu is now on this prescribed kibbles. She need to lose about 3 lbs. I am hoping for the same result with her. My girl Shih Tzu is a little picky eater so I have to add some bone broth. One complain I have is that this dry food is good for all size breeds, including the small breeds - per the packaging.

This is why I am only giving it 4 stars. … more

I have 2 18mo Cockaliers. From the day we got them from the breeder, they refused to eat his recommended food. He had told us to give local raw honey to lessen allergies which cocker spaniels have. They would lick the honey and leave the food. The vet rec Royal Canin puppy, and they started regurgitating, different from vomiting. The breeder said get them off of that, so I did, went back to his and then they started vomiting. Gave boiled chicken and they tanked. Clearly not tolerating chicken. Vet said Ultamino and they improved some but I was not happy with protein content. Gradually tried Wellness and they got diarrhea, Merrick beef, no chicken. They were on that a while but still would drink I have 2 18mo Cockaliers. From the day we got them from the breeder, they refused to eat his recommended food.

I am talking 4-8 times a day respectively. Finally surrendered and put them on this food. They are doing great, almost no vomiting or regurgitation. I’m going to slowly try scrambled egg to get more protein onboard, and perhaps a fish oil supplement for their skin and coat. Yes, if all else fails, I do recommend this dog food. … more

I am happy with this food. Had used it before. I am just as happy with your customer service. You all are about the nicest people I have ever dealt with. Your customer service is A++++ in my book. My dog has been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. That is the reason I had to change her food. I have dealt with you all for some time now and I cannot thank you enough for being so kind.

Our 1-1/2 year old Australian Labradoodle would throw up yellow bile a minimum of once per week and sometimes as much as 4 times per week which started around 6 months of age. We kept trying different types of quality dog food from Nature's Logic to Fromm to even trying a raw diet (which Derbie would NOT even consider!) Everything checked out health wise with our vet. Our vet suggested we try a prescription diet, Royal Canin Vet Diet Gastrointestinal Low Fat Dry Dog Food. We have been on this food now for 2 weeks with no vomit and the transition to this food was very easy. Derbie gobbles this up as soon as it hits the bowl, which she had never done before.

I am thrill with the food! My German Shepherd has IBS and this was a recommendation from her vet. It works great for the IBS. Although after being on it for several months, she still seemed hungry. I introduced Blue Buffalo HF Hydrolyzed Salmon to hopefully help with the problem and now I use half and half and we have found the perfect mix. She no longer has problem with IBS and she is satisfied with her meals and her coat looks fantastic. We are also so pleased with Chewy! Great company, super wonderful service!

This review is not about the product, but about working with Chewy's in general. As the heading states, we have always received 5-star treatment at Chewy's when ordering, or having to return and item that we miss ordered. There have been two occasions that we have ordered a product that didn't work out for our pet that was suffering from pancreatitis. On both occasions, Chewy's simply had us donate the food to our local shelter. We can't speak highly enough about Chewy's customer service and responsiveness!

My dog was always at the dr every few months with severe diarrhea. The dr would always put him on this for awhile until his poop returned to normal . This would happen every few months so we just decided to keep him on it and he hasn’t had to go to the dr since we made the change !

I had never even heard of a dog having pancreatitis when Stanley was diagnosed. My vet switched him to this food, and it has made a huge difference. It helped with the bloating, vomiting, acid reflux, etc. Not to mention, my dog LOVES meal time now. I always thought he was just not super into meal time—but turns out he just wasn’t feeling the greatest on his other food. Now he’s healthy and gets majorly excited to eat each meal. I can even use this food as treats. No more begging and bribing him to eat!

I have been doing business with Chewy for many years. When my Vet recommended I change my Beagles diet to a Low Fat dry dog food because of stomach issues, I didn't know Chewy carried this item. Royal Canin Vetinary Diet is perfect for my Dog. He loves it and the stomach and intestinal discomfort have disappeared. Chewy is so good to work with because they take care of you you quickly and efficiently.
