Help with Kidney Disease!

[Christian P]

Hi,

I’m looking to get some advice on which food from the editors choice list would you recommend for a dog with kidney disease?

Thank you

Hi Christian-
Unfortunately, I’m of little to no help at all, but I’d like to bump up your question. The resident kidney disease expert, Shawna, hasn’t posted for a while. We’ll see if we can get someone else with some knowledge interested. Curious, however, what are you feeding your dog right now? What stage of kidney disease is it in? Also, has your vet given you any advise on what to feed? Such as, protein, phosphorous or fat levels? I wish you well on your quest for a few good recommendations!

I’m not sure I would use any of those for a dog with kidney disease. I certainly wouldn’t use any kibble for a dog with kidney disease.

Depending on where your dog is with the disease, he may need no diet change other than getting off of dry, or he may need controlled phosphorus levels, or something else all together.

Can anyone recommend a food with low phosphorus?
