I've had a cat & dog rxd food, both death diet (Hill's Science Diet).

I did't go with either one.

The dog was dxd with "cancer." He did not have cancer, he had ehrylichiosis, a coinfection of lyme.

Common mistake.

But when I looked at the ingredients, I asked the vet whe he would rx food for a dog with cancer dx a diet with known carcinogens in it!

Vet didn't really have an answer. Greedy moron.
