Hill's Prescription Diet

Hill's Prescription Diet k/d + Mobility Dog Food — canned (Flavoured with Chicken) review

We don't put a score on this food. It is a veterinary diet, formulated for a diagnosed condition and meant to be fed on a vet's advice. Your vet has seen your dog and we have not, so a number from us could only pull you towards their advice or away from it, and neither of those is ours to do. What follows is what the label declares, what the analysis works out at, and where to buy it, with no judgement attached to any of it.

k/d plus Mobility comes as a can flavoured with chicken, part of the Prescription Diet range. It is a kidney recipe built around pork liver and shellfish, and Hill's offers it to dogs it says need kidney and joint support from the same bowl.

WetAdult

A Prescription Diet kidney recipe in a can, flavoured with chicken, with joint support added; we do not score veterinary diets. Hill's names pork liver and chicken as the protein sources, with molluscs and crustaceans behind the mobility half of the name. Protein is held to 16.5% of dry matter, as a kidney brief asks.

Dogs of any size, with a feeding guide from 2.5kg upwards
A wet food routine, at 74.0% moisture
Owners who want the minerals and betaine printed with a dose

Worth watching

Pork liver is a protein source though only chicken carries a percentage
Molluscs and crustaceans on the list, relevant to a shellfish exclusion
