About this product
1. What Does U D Stand for in Dog Food?
Answer
UD stands for Urinary Care Diet for dogs and has a positive effect on maintaining the healthy bladder of your pet. The formula of Hills prescription diet gives a healthy bladder and prevents your dog from developing cystine stones. It is a balanced diet that has all the nutrients that fulfill your dog's health requirements. Hills u/d dog food effectively dissolves cystine stones and also minimizes the chances of its recurrence. It also helps in maintaining a strong immunity in dogs. The ingredients of the Hills u/d diet include antioxidants, L-carnitine, and taurine. It has low levels of calcium and sodium, which prevents the formation of bladder stones. It maintains the desired urine pH and controls the level of quality and highly digestible proteins.
2. What is Hills U D?
Answer
Hills U D is a balanced and complete dry dog food and has all the nutrition that your pet dog needs. Every dog requires an ideal quantity of minerals for maintaining a healthy bladder. Extra minerals can boost the development of urine crystals which could lead to the formation of bladder stones. Hills prescription UD diet minimizes the risk of bladder and kidney stones in dogs vulnerable to non-struvite kidney stones. The UD diet has low levels of calcium and protein that prevent bladder stone formation. It is also effective in maintaining your dog's urine pH level, which avoids the formation of stones. It is also supplemented with antioxidants to regulate oxidative injuries to cells and provides strong immunity in dogs.
3. What Dog Food is Best for Urinary Tract Health?
Answer
If your dog has urinary tract infections, you should consider giving your dog a prescription u/d diet. The u/d diet helps to dissolve kidney and bladder stones and also stops their re-occurrence. The formulated diet dilutes your dog’s urine and has a positive effect on their urine pH level. But these diets usually require a prescription, and so you must get one prescribed by your Vet. Urinary tract infections can be painful and require continuous access to a place for your dog to urinate. An ideal and balanced diet ensures a healthy urinary tract and is also suited for your dog’s good health and immunity. Apart from a healthy u/d diet, ensure that your dog drinks plenty of water daily.
4. What is the Difference Between Hill's Science Diet and Prescription Diet?
Answer
The pet foods that come under the Hills Prescription Diet caters to specific medical issues that develop in our pets. While the Science Diet takes care of the good health of your pet during their different life stages. A prescription diet requires a prescription from a vet and can be purchased through your veterinarian. On the other hand, Science diets are available at pet grooming centers, feed stores, and pet specialty stores. Hills is only inclined towards Prescription diets and does not make Science diets which are only a substitute to prescription diets.
5. Do you Need a Prescription to Buy Hill's Prescription Diet?
Answer
The formula of Hills Prescription Diet pet foods addresses specific health issues of our pets. Veterinarians specialize in treating our pets and other animals and also care for their patients. Hence, Hills diet supplements always recommend the involvement of a veterinarian to ensure your pet's nutrition and overall health. These diets address specific health conditions and have proper medicated and nutritional values attached to them. That is why a veterinarian’s involvement is necessary. He checks the health condition of your pet over time and suggests diet plans and medication with time.
6. Can Dry Food Cause UTI in Dogs?
Answer
Not all dry pet foods cause UTI in dogs. However, low-quality dry foods are the main reason for enhancing alkaline levels in urine. Hence, the first thing that we should do is shift towards high-quality prescription diets for dogs. However, you can also give a raw diet and homemade diet, properly balanced with nutrients. Consult your Vet and feed only a prescription u/d diet for UTI issues in dogs. Over-the-counter pet foods are not bound to any vet prescriptions, and hence we cannot be sure if it provides complete nutrition to our pet. Hills prescription u/d diet provides balanced nutrients and boosts immunity in dogs.
