I'm guessing that the vet was aiming at high fiber content with the w/d... if that's the case, then there are other high-fiber prescription diets out there. Both Royal Canin and Purina have prescription lines that make high fiber diets. Maybe you could talk to the vet about trying one of those instead to see if it is more palatable? I'm not a big fan of Hill's, to be really honest. The clinic that I work at doesn't even carry their diets due to the amount of by-products and fillers in the food and the preservatives that they use.

If none of the prescription diets work, you could always try speaking to a nutritionist about home-cooking for your dog.
