If you are feeding a Veterinary or Prescription Diet™, you probably believe that you are buying a medicine for the treatment or prevention of a disease of your pet. If you do, you are mistaken.

Choosing the Right Food

Burns Pet Nutrition diets can replace most of the Veterinary and Prescription Diets™ at a fraction of the cost. The food selector above shows, in broad terms, which Burns food can be used to replace the Veterinary-only Diets. This information is not a blanket recommendation. We advise that pet owners consult with the Burns Pet Nutrition Team and involve their vets in decisions about nutrition as diets should be tailored to suit the individual pet.
