and she's on bene-bac probiotic to help her GI.
don't touch the RC low fat as my dog relapsed on it back in november;
i heard the z/d and purina HA were good.
but from my experience (for the past 2 years going thru this); the iams low residue wet food is great.

good luck
glad you posted this

just make sure ULTRA z/d not z/d as ultra is hydrolized and z/d is not
