Your dog doesn't have a diagnosed digestive issue, since prescription diets like this are meant to be used under veterinary guidance rather than as an everyday food for a healthy dog.

Overview
["This Hill's Prescription Diet i/d Digestive Care formula is a chicken and vegetable stew sold in 12.5 oz cans, packaged 12 to a case. The label lists sensitive stomach as its specific use, with a probiotic style special ingredient and an ActivBiome+ prebiotic blend aimed at supporting your dog's gut microbiome.", "Hill's describes the formula as nourishing dogs with sensitive stomachs and formulated to support digestive health and help manage digestive upsets in adult dogs. Chicken is the named allergen source, so it's built around a single, clear protein.", "At $63.99 for a 12-pack of 12.5 oz cans, this is a premium price point compared to everyday wet food, which is typical for a veterinary diet. With 816 reviews at a 4.5 star average and roughly 1,000 units bought in the past month, it has a smaller but steady base, consistent with a formula that's mainly purchased on a veterinarian's recommendation rather than picked off the shelf."]

Performance notes
The stew format combines chicken and vegetables with Hill's ActivBiome+ prebiotic fiber blend, which is designed to work with your dog's existing gut bacteria as part of managing digestive upsets, rather than functioning as a probiotic supplement on its own.
What buyers say
With 816 reviews averaging 4.5 stars and roughly 1,000 units bought in the past month, this formula shows the smaller, steadier purchase pattern typical of prescription diets, which owners tend to buy only after a veterinarian recommends a specific product.
This is not veterinary advice, but Hill's Prescription Diet formulas are made for specific health needs and are intended to be used under veterinary guidance, so it's worth confirming with your vet that this formula fits your dog's situation.
What is ActivBiome+ in this formula?
It's Hill's prebiotic fiber blend included in this recipe, which is formulated to support your dog's gut microbiome as part of managing digestive upsets.
Is this a good everyday food for a healthy dog?
It's formulated specifically for dogs with digestive issues or sensitive stomachs, so a healthy dog without those needs would likely do fine on a standard adult formula instead.
