When your dog's kidneys are damaged, the kidneys cannot perform as well as before. The condition is not reversible, but progression may be slowed, and taking action early can be beneficial. Dietetic foods for kidney conditions are designed to help reduce workload on the kidneys, enabling them to function more effectively. Dogs with decreased kidney function may experience loss of appetite and their food intake might decline. Hill's nutritionists and veterinarians developed Hill's Prescription Diet k/d Early Stage clinical nutrition for early protection of a dog's vital kidney function and to encourage eating for strength and energy. It's formulated with ActivBiome+ Kidney Defense, a proprietary blend of prebiotics shown to nourish the gut microbiome to help support kidney function. This dry food has an irresistible taste that your dog will love.
How it works:
- Controlled phosphorus & low sodium, enriched with Omega-3s from fish oil
- ActivBiome+ Kidney Defense nourishes the gut microbiome to support kidney health
- Enhanced Appetite Trigger (E.A.T.) Technology for dogs
- High levels of essential amino acids and L-carnitine
- With a delicious taste your dog won't resist
How it helps:
- Formulated to help sustain vital kidney & heart function
- Helps manage the changes in the gut microbiome caused by impaired kidney function
- Stimulates appetite & encourages food intake
- Supports natural ability to build and maintain muscle mass
- S+OX SHIELD: Formulated to promote a urinary environment that reduces the risk of developing struvite and calcium oxalate crystals
