Prescription Diet k/d Kidney Care Beef & Vegetable Stew Canned Dog Food
Product Description
Hill's® Prescription Diet® k/d® is a specialized therapeutic diet clinically proven to improve and extend quality of life in dogs with kidney issues. This vital nutrition supports kidney health in dogs whose renal tissues may become damaged over time, affecting their body's natural ability to filter waste and toxins from the blood and maintain proper fluid and mineral balance.
Developed by Hill's expert team of nutritionists and veterinarians, this clinical nutrition provides targeted support for dogs experiencing kidney challenges. The scientifically formulated diet addresses the complex needs of renal patients, including those who may experience decreased appetite and reduced caloric intake, which can lead to muscle mass loss. While kidney damage is irreversible, Prescription Diet® k/d® offers proven nutritional support to help manage your dog's kidney health and maintain their overall well-being. This carefully balanced formula has been clinically tested to help improve and extend quality of life for dogs with kidney issues.
