Veterinary recommends Hills Science z/d diet - Due to anal gland issues? HELP!!

[Lisa Duarte]

So our 2-year old labradoodle has continued to experience impacted/full anal glands which need to be cleaned out by the vet almost monthly. The vet is now thinking it may be a food sensitivity (which I have inquired with the vet previously) and is now suggesting Hills Science z/d to try and rule out anything?

I know Hills Science isn’t a great food, but wondering if anyone else has dealt with this issue or food? Any thoughts and suggestions would be appreciated. 

Thanks

We used to have anal gland issues with Oliver—lasting about three years. We were considering surgery and were having to get his anal glands expressed every three weeks. We then switched Oliver to Orijen Six Fish (previously Acana Duck and Pear) and his issues resolved immediately. Now that Oliver has been on Six Fish for four years (and now using Stella and Chewy as toppers) we’ve never had another anal gland issue! I couldn’t recommend trying Six Fish more.

I'm so glad the Six Fish worked for you and Oliver didn't have to go through surgery!
