What actually makes urinary care dog food unique?
Post Body

Our family dog just had kidney stone surgery at 3 years old. She's now on Hill's Urinary Care food.

As I examined the ingredients and claims on the Hill's food, I couldn't help but wonder what was actually special about this food? I couldn't see an active ingredient/medicine to my knowledge. What does the food have/do to actually do what is says like reducing stone size, recurrence, etc. I see the S Ox shield advertised too, but I couldn't find too much on that.

Another thing I noticed is with cat food there seems to be non-prescription "urinary care" food in addition to prescription, but for dogs I've only been able to find prescription. Curious as to why this may be?

Just to clarify I'm not questioning the success of the food. I'd just like to understand better what it's actually doing.
