As the kidneys become damaged, they lose their ability to remove waste products, which accumulate in the body causing various signs including loss of appetite. The dog also loses the ability to concentrate its urine and starts producing larger volumes of urine, increasing the risk of dehydration, and drinking more to compensate. Weight loss is also common. The earlier the disease is identified, the more effective the treatment will be.
A correct diet is at least as important as any medication in helping to control the condition, to slow its progression and to help your dog achieve a good quality of life.
Reducing dietary phosphorus is key to slowing the progression of Chronic Kidney Disease. Optimising the amount and type of protein can also help improve quality of life of dogs by helping minimise signs, whilst still providing energy and helping to maintain healthy muscles, organs and immune function.
Dogs with Chronic Kidney Disease often have poor appetites so PURINA® PRO PLAN®VETERINARY DIETS Canine NF Renal Function is highly palatable and encourages your dog to eat despite a reduced appetite.
