Excellent food for itchy dogs
:"So grateful this food exists! I have a highly allergic dog (beef, chicken, eggs, venison, oats, rice, turkey, peas, carrots), so that rules out a lot of dog food. She was ill on the Anallergenic diet "
A complete dry food for adult dogs, formulated to reduce allergic reactions and intolerances. For chronic, acute diarrhoea, colitis and inflammation of the intestinal tract and skin.
Royal Canin Veterinary Diet - Sensitivity Control SC 21 is a special feed for dogs with food allergies or intolerances, which have lead to diseases of the digestive system. The feed supports healthy intestinal mucosa and balanced intestinal flora.
Typical symptoms include chronic, acute diarrhoea and inflammation of the intestines or stomach. Also itching, skin inflammation and fur problems often imply the existence of an allergy. The limited protein sources in this feed (duck and tapioca) do not commonly result in allergic reactions and are highly digestible. The recipe contains digestion-boosting fibres like beetroot pulp and FOS.
It contains a patented complex (biotin, niacin, pantothenic acid, zinc, linoleic acid) to improve skin and fur health. Skin and ear infections can also be relieved by the added omega 3 fatty acids (EPA & DHA).
Recommended for (indications):
Chronic idiopathic colitis
Chronic enteritis
Chronic and acute diarrhea
Food elimination diet
Food allergy
Food intolerance
Growth
Not recommended for (contraindications):
Acute pancreatitis (if appropriate may be fed for chronic pancreatitis)
Pregnant or nursing bitches
Puppies
Key Benefits:
Selected protein: a limited number of protein sources helps reduce the potential risk of food allergies.
Skin barrier: a patented complex (biotin, niacin, pantothenic acid, zinc, linoleic acid) to support the barrier effect on the skin.
EPA / DHA: fatty acids to help maintain a healthy digestive system and healthy skin, while reducing existing inflammation.
Digestive security: select nutrients which support a balanced digestive system.
Further information:
SENSITIVITY CONTROL contains "Intensive Colour" (high L-tyrosine content) for optimum coat pigmentation.
Duration of treatment:
If your dog is presenting with a food allergy or intolerance, you should immediately switch feeds. Continue to feed your pet the diet feed that causes the least allergic reaction for your pet's whole life.
So grateful this food exists! I have a highly allergic dog (beef, chicken, eggs, venison, oats, rice, turkey, peas, carrots), so that rules out a lot of dog food. She was ill on the Anallergenic diet (lethargy, itching, nausea), and the Hypoallergenic diet contains rice. Maize makes her yeastiness worse, which is also in a lot of dry dog food. This contains tapioca and duck, which reduces her itching and improves her energy. Wish they did a wet food version too, as this makes her very thirsty.

Thank you
My border collie has been poorly for several months with severe diahorhea and loss of weight After much investigations and scans My vet suggested to try Royal Caninn sensitivity dog food
Not much success with the tin dog food but I have tried her on these biscuits she loves them and its such a wonderful site to see her enjoy meals again.
My last visit to the vet on Friday she has gained weight I am now in possession of three bags and cannot thank you enough from me and my mate Leah the dog

Life saver
My elderly dog/bitch has been struggling with her bowels for months and I have tried numerous things - Fish and rice which made her very lethargic, re-introducing her normal Royal Canin Adult dry food, steroids all of which had very little effect with her ranging from very smelly loose stools to mucus filled slop and straining constantly. Then I discovered this food and hey presto within 1 week she is producing soft but normal stools what a relief worth every penny.

Bag Change? Ingredient change ? Further Review
This is a follow on review since 26/9/19. I will be changing from Royal Canin -after also reading other reviews since the new bag change. Something is wrong with this dog food . Both the two older dogs are now itching with not a 'flea in sight'. We haven't changed anything else in their environment and they are treated for flea /tick /lice -skin also checked by vet. After feeding the dogs SC21 for 5yrs+ and no problems - The new bag and smell change - something is very amiss!!!

Bag change
My two older dogs sometimes have not eaten this new food even though it says SC 21 and have wasted a few bowls. The food doesn't have the same strong smell as before so think the manufacturer or supplier has changed.Would therefore prefer the old SC 21.

Good food for a sensitive Great Dane
I have had to feed one of my Great Danes on a 50:50 mix of this and Royal Canin Anallergenic which controls her sensitivity issues 95% of the time

Sensitivity control
Our dog is plagued with allergies, so this vet recommended food is great for her.

Canin sensitivity control SC1 .
Our GSD was diagnosed with acute intestine and bowel inflammation. Was on food recommended by vet ...was good for a while then started to lose weight rapidly. Vet said to go onto Canin Vet sensitivity.....oh my word what a difference. He loves the food...putting weight back on...no vomit or runs. He is happier...getting his energy back....plus the canned food doesn't smell when we open it . HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT . HAPPY DOG...

highly recomended
2.5 years staffie breed cross. We adopt Zena and find out she is in bad condition because of diarrhea. After four days we went to the Vet who advised us to changed the food for this one. The stool has changed after first meal. After a few days was easy to see her fur is nice and shiny. Another plus is it is hard to overfeed dog with this food. Highly recomended A+++

Royal Canin SC21
12 month old Springer Spaniel. We had trouble (runs etc) from 8 weeks old with many of the leading brands of dry dog food we tried. We switched to this brand at 7months old and have been really pleased with the results. No more runs and firm stools. The only problem with this brand is that it is quite expensive. Vet advised cheaper hypoallergenic brand but 48hrs later he was back to square one. Just have to bite the bullet by the looks of it.

Excellent
My two year old Labrador has been on this food since he was 10 months old at the advice of our vet. He suffered with a severe sensitive stomach & switching to this food despite his young age cured this instantly. He still enjoys it now. No vomiting, no wind and firm stools.

Transformation!!!
I starting using this food to help my shar-pei with his terrible skin and within weeks the transformation was amazing. I also changed my 12 month British bulldog onto this food and her stools immediately became firm and her fur is soft and shiny.
An amazing find and I cannot recommend this food highly enough!!!

At last!
After many years of trying I have a last found a premium dog food that hasn't upset my Alaskan Malamute's tummy. She has always been picky, but now eats her food with no problems. Her skin and fur has improved and firm poo's. Great.

Very well accepted
Our 8 year old English Bulldog has always had problems with allergies. Especially in spring/summer when the pollen levels are high. In winter his skin is always very dry and scaly, and we also often have to express his anal glands. If he was getting on with a food, it would always change within a few months and we had to try a new one. After an extremely inflamed stomach and intestines for almost 1.5 years, we finally found Royal Canin Sensitivity Control. Initially we got it from the vet, then we finally found it at zooplus!!! We are very happy with it, and the dog's stool and skin problems have decreased dramatically.

Definitely recommend this
Last year we had to take our 5 year old French Bulldog to the vet for injections every month to control his allergies. It was the worst in the summer. He scratched his ears and they were constantly inflamed. He had red patches around his head and mouth. This did not stop all year, even in the winter, so we had to resort to allergy shots.
Our vet recommended this food late last year. Since January 2014, we've been feeding him exclusively with Royal Canin Sensitivity Control, and stopped giving him treats. It was hard at first, but after almost a year, our dog is unrecognisable. His fur is white again, he doesn't scratch any more, and we've saved money by not needing the injections any more!

Fantastic food
Ruby, my springer (now 4 years old) has always had a sensitive tummy and I tried a few different foods before finding this. She goes to 'doggy day care' at a local vets practice where they feed all the dogs this food - the dogs love it and its easier for the vets to keep the place clean! I switched her to this food and I've never looked back - she's not had a sensitive tummy since and her coat is beautiful and shiny

AMAZING!
After trying several food brands for our 6mth old Staff X puppy I am relieved to have finally found a product that helps with his irritable bowels!
He has suffered with bad digestion issues since the day we got him and I have tried all the brands plus the 'boiled rice and chicken diet' trying to improve this but it would still come and go. Picking up became scraping up!!
Alleluia for this food...improvement within 72hrs of using. Sticking to this from now.

My 4 month old German Shepherd Puppy had terrible diorrhea for over a month, the vet suggested we switch to this food & it worked miracles within just a week.
