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.

This is for my adult dog with Inflammatory Bowel Disease 2
By Disease2 on Nov 16, 2021
My Chihuahua had to change foods because Hill's Science Diet wet food she needed was not available right now and my vet recommended Royal Canin. So in changing her over to their wet food, I also saw they had gastrointestinal dry food as well. She loves it. It's different from the Hill's Science Diet W/D formula she was on, and both the new wet & dry gastrointestinal food has made for much better bowel movements for her. And less gas on her stomach. It seems to be working out very well. This dry formula is low calorie which is good and makes up for the high calorie puppy wet food. I would like to see an adult wet formula of gastrointestinal that is not high calorie. That way I wouldn't have to My Chihuahua had to change foods because Hill's Science Diet wet food she needed was not available right now and my vet recommended Royal Canin.

Gastrointestinal Low Fat Dog Food
By Minnie on Dec 3, 2021
My Chihuahua was diagnosed with gall bladder issues. She was prescribed Royal Canin Gastrointestinal dog food, both canned food and dry. She likes the canned food. She is so-so with the dry. I wish Royal Canin would make the kibble smaller for small dogs. When I wrote to Royal Canin, the rep replied to add some water. I tried that and chicken broth but she is picky and does not like it much more.

Best Dof Food
By Ruffus on Dec 2, 2021
This has been the best dog food my dog has ate in his 8 years of life. Never knew he had a bad metabolism. Gained weight terribly and couldn't lose weight until I got this prescribed food from the Vet. He is losing weight slowly but surely but he finally is losing and has lost seven pounds already. Hopefully I can get him to lose seven more.

Must Be Good!
By Terri on Nov 18, 2021
My Daisy has no choice but to eat this food. She was very sick, and her vet said this is the food she has to be on. It made me a little nervous because if it did not taste good, it was going to be hard to get her to eat. But apparently it tastes wonderful. She gobbles it up every time I put it in her bowl. Even Mickey, who is not on a special diet, really likes it.

Miracle food for pancreatic issues
By Works on Oct 30, 2021
My Connie started eating this food a few weeks ago. Her pancreas had not been getting the enzymes it needed to do its job. Her poop was very very soft. After changing to diet to Royal Canin Gastrointestinal food, her poop firmed up almost overnight. We were amazed! We started her on pancreatic enzymes powder we mix with her food to help her pancreas do its job. Great Conbination! She is already starting to gain some weight back on and that's the goal. Thanks Royal Canin! Best food ever!

Pancreatitis doggo
By Thordog on Oct 19, 2021
I ordered this after being prescribed by my vet. My dog is just now starting on it slowly so I don't know how it will work for him yet. I am writing this review to let folks know that it took almost 2 weeks to arrive. I usually get my Chewy orders within 48 hours, liv Chewy and will stay with them. However, I was surprised about how long it took to arrive.

Vet recommended, pup recommended, owner recommended!!!
By Kaybee on Oct 6, 2021
This food has been a true life-saver for us! My senior girl developed pancreatitis, couldn't/wouldn't eat, and was going downhill every day. My vet recommended this specific dog food for her & it has worked wonders!!! She ate it all up from the very first offering, and continues to do so. I plan to keep her on this specific food unless othrwise directed by the vet.

It helped my dog
By Barb on Oct 14, 2021
I have a 10 pound Yorkie mix, 7 years old. I started her on this food because she was having trouble with her bowels. She always had nice firm poops, then they started getting squishy and very loose. My Vet suggested to try this food and it helped tremendously. The kibble was larger than what she was use to, but she didn't have any trouble eating it.

My Dog Loves This Food
By pranaba on Oct 18, 2021
My dog loves the food! Had to order the l as the bag because I couldn’t find the smaller bags anywhere. I hope it’s not being discontinued. The shipping of this large bag was less than professional. The box looked like it had been dropped from a 747. The box was ripped, dented, and had been taped and re-taped. Not good!

New customer/Love this RX food!
By Waltersmomma on Sep 20, 2021
Our 9 year old Morkie has pancreatitis. His blood work returned to normal levels after one and a half weeks on this food. Diarrhea is gone! He loves this food (so does other dog that is not sick) and he is feeling so much better! Great customer service! Great website! Chewey please restock the snacks and treats for gastrointestinal patients. This is the only type food this little dog can have now. Good job! I’m on auto ship
