I have a 7 year old chipoo rescue that can only eat wet food because she is missing many teeth. I am trying to get her off of Hills ID low fat which she has been on for about a year. She was put on it after gastro bleeding. She seems to be doing well on it but I am worried about long term use and of course Hills food. Lately I’ve been mixing in Wellness core beef and lamb. Half wellness half hills. I am so confused when checking percentages of ingredients that I’m making myself crazy. Also, Marley won’t eat pate, but does eat the stews. I have cured her severe anal gland problem (every 2 weeks at the vet) with 1-2 teaspoons of pumpkin a day. Haven’t been to the vet in 2 months. What a sweet victory. Will really appreciate your input. Thanks.

Are you working with your Vet to wean her off Rx food? What has your Vet recommended you look for in a new food? If a food needs to be similar in guaranteed analysis as the Rx food finding a similar OTC food could prove difficult. Do you plan on continuing feeding pumpkin if you find a new food? How has she done with adding Cores to her diet?I agree with you and feeding some Rx foods long term, but not all depending on the health condition, would be a concern of mine as well. However, I would not be concerned with it being made by Science Diet or any other Rx food manufacturer.
