Hill's Prescription Diet k/d Kidney Care with Chicken Canned Dog Food
When a dog's kidney tissue is damaged, the kidneys cannot function as well as they used to. For example, their ability to filter and reabsorb water and nutrients decreases. This condition is irreversible, but we can help slow the progression of the damage with nutritional therapy for kidney disease, which is designed to reduce the workload on the kidneys and allow them to function more efficiently. Generally, dogs with decreased kidney function may experience loss of appetite and reduced food intake. Hills' nutritionists and veterinarians have developed a therapeutic diet. Hill's Prescription Diet k/d combines ActivBiome+ Kidney Defense, a proprietary blend of betaine and prebiotics that promotes a balanced gut microbiome. This helps protect kidney function, stimulates appetite, and enhances food intake with Hill's exclusive Enhanced Appetite Trigger (E.A.T) technology.
