Indeed, the concept consisting in a reduced protein content diet is a little out of date. Renal anatomy and function are reviewed as well as the main renal pathologies. Incidence, symptoms, diagnosis and overall dietary management are developed. The different nutrients to be taken into consideration are discussed, according to the evolution's state of the disease. Finally, a comparison between different pet foods for chronic renal failure shows a largely variable composition and should help the practitioner to make the best choice for its patient. Home made food are also proposed.
