Q:My 7 year old lab has early stage kidney disease. The Dr. has prescribed Eukanuba Early Kidney, but frankly it's too costly.
Are there similar commercial products? Needs low protein and low phosphorus.
I am considering Hi-Tor Neo Pet or Regal Lean---

A:RCori,I don't mean to be rude,but you should follow the vets suggestion.
Eukaneba is actually not highpriced,compared to others and paying a little extra for food,will be a lot cheaper than advanced kidney-disease.
As a 7yr old,she/he is senior and probably got kidney disease from crappy food to begin with.Please do what is prescribed,does he/she not deserve better

A:Chico: The dog has been on ProPlan for 7 years--hardly a cheap dog food---
probably got the kidney disease from Lyme Disease a couple of years ago.
The only thing that holds off more disease is low phosphorus in the food---there has to be a commercial product available-I just haven't found it yet.

A:RCori,someone else,more knowledgable about dogs will try to help,I am sure,so stick around.
I have 3 cats,but know the seriousness of kidney disease,be it a dog or cat.
I don't know about Pro-Plan,but there are a lot of good people here,so,as I said stick around!
