Hill's Prescription Diet: u/d Dry Dog Food
Hill's Prescription Diet u/d Dry Dog Food is a specially formulated therapeutic diet developed by Hill's nutritionists and veterinarians to support urinary tract health in dogs. Bladder stones form when minerals in the urine crystallize and accumulate, potentially causing pain and serious complications requiring veterinary care. Because your dog's diet plays a critical role in overall health, this formula is designed to promote a healthy bladder environment by carefully managing mineral and nutrient levels.
How it works:
- Controls the quantity of high-quality, highly digestible protein to reduce urinary mineral load
- Formulated with low sodium and low calcium levels to minimize crystal formation
- Optimizes urinary pH to create an environment less conducive to stone development
- Enriched with taurine, L-carnitine, and antioxidants to support overall health and immune function
Key Benefits:
- Reduces the risk of multiple stone types (excluding struvite stones) by managing key mineral levels
- Supports kidney health through controlled phosphorus and protein content
- Promotes a strong immune system with antioxidant vitamins E and beta-carotene
- Supports heart health with added taurine and L-carnitine
- Complete and balanced nutrition meeting all of your adult dog's daily nutritional requirements
