1 Sometimes dogs need something a little extra!

2 Hills

3 a/d Used for pets recovering from serious illness/surgery. High protein/fat/omega- 3/carbohydrates/glutamine Aid in promoting wound healing, supports metabolic requirements of the small intestine and may stimulate the immune system. Consistency becomes more liquid with stirring Allows for tube/force feeding High palatability Causes inappetant acceptance

4 b/d Formulated to help fight age related behavior changes Specifically formulated to help fight the signs of brain aging. Antioxidants Defend cells from free radicals and promotes a healthy immune system High omega- 3 fatty acids Low protein and Sodium to maintain kidney and heart health.

5 c/d For dogs with urinary tract disease assoc. with Struvite Reduced levels of magnesium and phosphorus Promotes an acid urine, limits struvite formation Reduced protein and sodium Reduces calcium levels in the kidneys

6 d/d For dogs with inflammatory skin conditions and food allergy Most food reactions are caused by the protein source Protein source is usually beef, dairy, and wheat d/d has four varieties, all with protein sources that are not common to allergic reactions. Potato and duck Potato and salmon Potato and venison lamb

7 g/d For older (geriatric) dogs Low sodium Helps minimize systemic and renal hypertension Low phosphorus helps slow progression of kidney disease High omega- 3 Helps improve blood flow to the kidneys Reduced protein Helps decrease kidney workload

8 h/d For dogs with heart disease B- complex vitamins and magnesium added Counters loss of these nurtients in urine of dogs on diuretics Reduced phosphorus and protein Slows progression of concurrent kidney disease Low sodium and reduced chloride Controls signs of hypertension and edema High taurine and carnitine Maintain heart muscle function

9 i/d For dogs with gastrointestinal disorders (intestinal diet) High B- Complex and Potassium Helps replace those lost with vomiting and diarrhea High Digestibility Easy assimilation by the GI tract Moderate Fat Ensure adequate intake with smaller portions of food

10 j/d For limping and mobility (joint diet) High levels of EPA Omega- 3 that maintains joint function High levels of glucosamine and chondroitin Promotes healthy cartilage High carnatine Helps dogs burn fat while maintaining lean muscle

11 k/d For dogs with kidney disease Low sodium Helps control edema Low Phosphorus Slows progression of kidney disease Reduced Protein Reduces kidney workload by avoiding by- products that require kidney excretion

12 l/d For dogs with liver disease Highly digestible High quality protein Reduces liver workload. Helps healing and regeneration of liver tissue High carnitine Improves fat metabolism in the liver High zinc (dry) added vitamin K (canned) Avoid deficiencies common with liver disease Low Copper Avoids accumulation of copper in the liver

13 n/d For dogs with cancer High protein, high fat Meets protein and energy demands while starving cancer cells Low carbohydrates Reduce lactate production by cancer cells High Arginine and omega- 3 Help stimulate immune system

14 r/d Weight control for obese or overweight dogs Low fat/high fiber Decreased caloric intake, reduces body fat while maintaining satiety, and lowers lipid levels in patients with hyperlipidemia High carnitine Helps do burn fat while increasing muscle mass

15 s/d (canned only) For dogs with urinary tract disease Cases associated with struvite crystals Low magnesium, phosphorus and protein Aid in the dissolution of struvites, promotes acid urine.

16 t/d For dogs with dental disease Dental disease is usually caused by a build- up of tartar at and under the gum line Increased fiber kibble size Fiber matrix resists crumbling, fibers clean the tooths surface Reduced protein and calcium Limits the production of plaque and the mineralization of plaque to tartar.

17 u/d For dogs with urolithiasis Mineral stones forming in the urinary tract Low protein and calcium Decreased concentrations of stone- forming constituents Increased omega- 3/low sodium Improve blood flow to the kidneys

18 w/d For dogs with excess weight, diabetes, and digestive troubles (colitis, diarrhea, constipation, and even severe struvite urolithiasis) Increased fiber Diabetes- helps minimized blood glucose fluctuation Colitis- modifies bowel transit time Constipation- absorbs water and increases intestinal motility Reduced magnesium/low sodium Helps limit the formation of struvite crystals

19 z/d and z/d ultra For dogs with food allergy and intolerance z/d is low allergen z/d ultra is allergen free Hydrolyzed protein No intact animal protein Single source carbohydrate Avoids common food allergens Omega- 3 and omega- 6 fatty acids Manage associated inflammation and nourish the skin and coat

21 CV- CARDIOVASCULAR Low Sodium Added Potassium Easily digestible

22 DCO- DUAL FIBER CONTROL High levels of Complex carbohydrates Increased fiber (and soluble fiber) High omega 6:3 ratio

23 HA- HYPOALLERGENIC Vegetarian Diet Single Protein Source High Digestibility Low Allergen Carbohydrate Source Meat not included, main ingredient is Soy Protein Prescribed for dogs that have an allergy to a common food ingredient.

24 JM- JOINT MOBILITY Promotes Joint Health High levels of omega- 3 fatty acids High levels of vitamins E and C (antioxidants) Natural source of glucosamine (joint protectant) Prescribed for dogs with difficulty getting up, limping/stiff after exercise, reluctant to climb steps/jump up.

25 DRM- DERMATOLOGIC MANAGEMENT High omega- 3 fatty acid content Increased vitamin A and E Salmon Meal for protein Good levels of omega- 6 fatty acid

26 NF- KIDNEY FUNCTION Low phosphorus Low sodium Added potassium Low protein Omega- 3 and omega- 6 fatty acids

27 OM- OVERWEIGHT MANAGEMENT Low fat Low Calorie High protein- maintains lean body mass (stimulates metabolism) Natural fiber- helps dogs feel full

28 DH- DENTAL HEALTH Kibble texture Optimal kibble size Antioxidants A and E Natural source of glucosamine Moderate calories Perfect for adult and senior dogs

29 EN- GASTROENTERIC High digestibility Low fiber Added zinc Increased vitamins E and C Source of MCTs Moderate fat
