SUMMARY: During tonight’s Empower Hour! webinar Dr. Jody Bearman shared great information about the prevention and treatment of kidney dis-ease in dogs and cats.

The most important aspect of treatment is to keep them eating (regardless of protein). Doing so will help prevent muscle wasting and decreased quality of life. The free Kindle book “Natural Prescription Diets for Dogs and Cats” has some tasty home-prepared recipes.

Prescription diet a/d is another palatable option (and with decent ingredients) that you can get from your vet.
