Hi there! Transitioning your pet from one urinary diet to another is an important process, and I’m glad you’re reaching out to ensure it’s done smoothly. Both Hill's C/D and Royal Canin SO are designed to support urinary health by managing and preventing the formation of urinary crystals and stones.
When making a diet switch, it’s best to do it gradually over the course of 7-10 days to avoid digestive upset. Start by mixing a small amount of the new food with your pet's current diet. Gradually increase the proportion of the new food while decreasing the old food each day. This helps your pet's digestive system adjust to the new formula.
Watch for any signs of gastrointestinal discomfort, such as vomiting, diarrhea, or a decreased appetite. Additionally, monitor your pet closely for any changes in their urination habits, such as straining or increased frequency, which could indicate a urinary issue.
If transitioning foods doesn’t go as planned, or you notice any concerning symptoms, it’s a good idea to consult with a vet. You may also need professional guidance to confirm that Royal Canin SO is a suitable choice for your pet’s specific needs. Feel free to book a video consult with one of our vets on Dial A Vet to discuss any concerns or to get more personalized advice. We're here to help!

Real questions, vet reviewed answers and quality care.
It was so easy, I needed some eye drops for my dog and thinking about going to the vet on a weekend made me nervous about the cost involved. Dial A Vet was a much simpler, cheaper option with faster results. Within 10 minutes of the call, I had the medicine I needed for my dog without an expensive consultation.
A great fast efficient service with a qualified vet who was lovely and helpful. Thank you Samantha. I was able to sort my dog at 6pm on a Sunday night for $49 - amazing. Highly recommend.

What an amazing service, at my wits end as I knew my beautiful dog had an ear infection, could not get into the vet for 4 days. Never knew there was vets online until I googled. Within 15 minutes on a Sunday I was taking to beautiful Samantha who diagnosed and treated our Jasper. Only $49. She trusted that we knew our boy and gave us lots of advice. I will definitely be using dial a vet every time and sharing with all my friends and family. Absolutely fantastic kind caring service. 11/10
