Questions
How do I change my prescription dog food order from a 25lb bag to a 17.6lb bag?
- You can cancel your current autoship order and place a new order with the smaller bag size.
Helpful?
Did they change the size of the 25lb bag? With the change of the picture, the bag seems to contain less food. I can fit it in the bin I have where I couldn't before and I also run out quicker. I have repeat delivery and have had to order much sooner.
- It is possible. After our dog being on z/d for two years we had to change her diet as she got pancreatitis. Was it the z/d? Wasn't anything else since that was all she ate.
Helpful?
Has anybody noticed the color of the poop that sacked for a few days if it turns dark brown almost black concerned puppy owner with allergies!!!
- No, That has not happened with us and we have 2 dogs age 6 and 8 years old on this dog food.
Helpful?
Did anyone’s dog get worse before getting better?
- My girlie (Ozzie) maintained a status quo, no better and no worse on the z/d. Her allergy symptoms manifest as scratching especially her ears repeated frequent ear infections, She chewed on her front paws. I answered your question so you can get some idea of how many had decreased symptoms or more/increased symptoms. She has changed to a different brand of food and is seeing a skin and allergy specialist. She is showing the first signs of improvement I’ve seen.

Does this food have the S/O+ Shield component?
Is this dog food grain free?
- Sorry! I originally said yes, but I believe I was incorrect.

I have a 4 months French bulldog and I wanted to know if it’s for puppies too
- I'm sorry, I do not know if it is for puppies too. I would ask your vet how they feel about feeding a 4 month old dog the Hills Z/D. My very allergic bubs started eating this brand when he was around a year old. It took a while because I tried different brands and even raw before I tried Hills Z/D. Raw worked well with eliminating his constant itch and red muzzle, but he always had soft stool. Long story short, it seems like my dog is allergic to seafood - and most dog foods have omega-3 from fish oil. In the end, Hills Z/D is amazing for my dog! I believe the soft food version has had recall issues. But the dry dog food hasn't. I hope this is helpful.

My shelters have been eating this food for years. However, we just bought a new bag and since we started feeding it to my dogs they have been acting differently. They leave half of the food in their bowls and don’t seem interested in eating it.
- This happened with my dog, Geo - when I first opened a 25 lb bag! He was hesitant to eat it, and his bowel movements (timing and texture) changed. After a few days (to ensure it was the food), I ordered another bag (17 lb bag so as to not have to throw away a 25 lb bag), and he is back to normal!
Helpful?
I am doing a food trial using this dog food to rule out food allergies. I noticed there is chicken liver in the food. How is that going to rule out chicken as an allergy? It is the same as chicken in other dog foods correct?
- according to my vet, it is hydrolyzed chicken which means all of the allergens have been taken out

Recently my vet suggested changing my Golden Doodles food from Blue Buffalo Freedom Chicken recipe to ZD Hills Prescription Diet due to reoccurring ear infections and licking of paws. She thought a digestive and allergy issue. Is there a comparable brand or food that may be a better fit? Although our Blue Buffalo is pricing, this price point for the ZD is not attainable for us to continue. She spoke of hydrolized protein being important but it's not economical either. Thank you!
I currently feed my male dog prescription Hill's z/d dry dog food I get from his vet. My female dog, who is on a normal food diet and does not need z/d food, wants to eat only the male's z/d food. It is challenging keeping them separated at meal time. Is there a comparable non-prescription food I can feed my female from Hill's that I can buy from Petco at a (considerably) lower price than the z/d?
My one year-old French bulldog and Boston terrier mix was diagnosed with a food intolerance. Her body is unable to break down the proteins in her food. Hope veterinarian prescribed hills ZD ultra canned dog food. I am thrilled with the hills brand reviews that I have been seeing. Can you recommend a different food that I can feed her.
Hi how would you compare blue buffalo Rx diet HF hydrolyzed canned food to hills Z/d hydrolyzed rx canned diet? Trying to find an alternative to royal Canin Selected protein Rx diets which Trixie will no longer eat .. nor does she like the hills z/d. Thanks
What else can I add to supplement my Dog's diet? He's just had the Bladder surgery but ongoing monthly costs for a 35kg dog on other than Hills Prescription u/d diet (375kg.) dry ^ Hills UD 375 cans (I've purchased a month's worth) is VERY expensive on an ongoing basis.Thank you
My vet Recommend Hill’s prescription diet for for 14lb dog who is overweight. Is there another more affordable option for her ?
Hello- Chester has been on prescription dry dog food (z/d) for approximately 8 months. He was prescribed this after bouts of loose stool. (First we had him on this yellow powder med and it worked but once he was off that the firm stool eent back to mush) I did have him on the vegan natural balance formula before switching to the z/d. As this is very expensive, I am wondering if it would be okay to try him on a new food. Was thinking the Rachel ray zero grain dry food. Thoughts?
My dog has a history of urinary infections so is permanently on a diet of Hills UD wet food but I've run out and the tins are out of stock everywhere?
My dog a few weeks ago she vomited so I gave her chicken n rice with Prescription Hills K/D she she got better now she wants it every time...now she wont eat without! I had no ideal chicken can cause her functions to get high...so I Changed her to Royal Canin exclusive Renal in a can its its like thick Pate' so I add water to soften it up! she eats it now but has not poops day 2. I'm worried now
I have an 8 year old female Min Pin / Rat Terrier mix who is about 6 lbs over weight. She’s currently on Hills Science Diet Youthful Vitality, but her vet said she should be on a grain less low calorie food. What do you suggest? I’d like to keep it in the Hills line if possible, unless they don’t have that kind of option. Thank you.
We have a 25 lb labradoodle that must eat hills prescription diet w/d. She has slowly gotten tired of the food and we have been adding bits of chicken and even hamburger to get her to eat. That has been successful but is now wearing off to the point where all she wants is the meat. Any suggestions as to how to entice her to eat? She is healthy otherwise.
I feed my cat Hill's Prescription Diet k/d Early Support Chicken Canned Cat Food, and order it from chewy.com, but the are out of stock and vet doesn't carry it. She has only 10 cans left. Is there any other place to get this food quickly?
