Dr. Pol Launches Veterinary-Formulated Non-Prescription Dog Food Line Exclusively at Walmart

Trusted veterinarian Dr. Jan Pol is expanding his expert pet care portfolio with the launch of Dr. Pol Clinical Nutrition, a new line of veterinarian-formulated dog food designed to support dogs with specific nutritional needs, no prescription required.

The new product line, manufactured and distributed by Consumers Supply Distributing, LLC (CSD), will be available exclusively at Walmart stores nationwide and on Walmart.combeginning in March.

Expertly designed with targeted nutrition in mind, the Dr. Pol Clinical Nutrition line features three specialized formulas designed to help support dogs with unique nutritional needs: weight management, food sensitivities and gastrointestinal care.

“Over my 50 years as a vet, I’ve watched too many dog owners get priced out of doing what they feel is right for their animals,” explained Dr. Pol. “Prescription dog food isn’t medicine. It’s nutrition — carefully selected ingredients formulated for specific needs. So, I took those same proven ingredients and made them accessible in my Dr. Pol® Clinical Nutrition dog food without the high price tag or the barriers. I’m proud to be partnering with Walmart to challenge the status quo and bring practical, affordable clinical nutrition to the families who need it most.”

Pet owners looking for targeted nutrition have historically needed veterinary prescriptions to access specialized formulas. Dr. Pol Clinical Nutrition was developed to provide many of the same targeted benefits, while offering greater accessibility and affordability. Centered on science-based nutrition and Dr. Pol’s clinical experience, each recipe is a complete and balanced diet that meets the nutritional requirements established by the AAFCO Dog Food Nutrient Profiles for maintenance, while incorporating thoughtfully selected ingredients, multi-fiber blends, and a proprietary six-strain probiotic pack to support digestion, health and vitality.
