Full details

Calibra Veterinary Diets Struvite is a complete dietetic dry food designed for dogs suffering from struvite uroliths and recurring urinary tract infections.

FAQs

Do I need a prescription to buy this food?

Yes, this is a veterinary dietetic food and should only be used under the direction and supervision of your veterinarian.

Can I feed this to my other dogs?

No, this formula is specifically balanced for struvite management and may not meet the nutritional requirements of healthy adult dogs.

How long will my dog need to stay on this diet?

The duration depends on your dog's clinical history and your vet's recommendation. Follow-up urinalysis is required to monitor progress.

Does this diet help with calcium oxalate stones?

No, this diet is specific to struvite stones. If your dog has a history of different stone types, consult your vet for the appropriate formula.

Can I give treats while using this diet?

Only if they are approved by your veterinarian. Most standard treats can alter the urine pH and mineral balance, rendering the diet ineffective.

Troubleshooting

Dog refuses to eat the new diet

Try warming the food slightly or adding a small amount of warm water to enhance the aroma.

Digestive upset during transition

Slow down the transition period by increasing the percentage of the new diet over a longer window of 10 days.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Specifically formulated to dissolve struvite stones
  • Contains therapeutic herbal extracts for urinary support
  • Rich in omega-3 fatty acids from salmon oil and algae
  • High palatability for dogs on restrictive diets

Cons

  • Requires a veterinary prescription for safe use
  • Not suitable for dogs with non-struvite urinary stones
  • Requires strict adherence to feeding guidelines to be effective

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Transitioning to this diet should only be done following a veterinarian's diagnosis of struvite urolithiasis. Always ensure that fresh, clean water is available 24/7, as proper hydration is essential for any urinary-focused diet. The product should be stored in a cool, dry place and the bag should be resealed tightly after every feeding to maintain the integrity of the omega-3 fatty acids and preserve freshness. Do not supplement this diet with human food or high-mineral treats, as these can easily negate the precisely balanced mineral content of the formula.
