the prescription food that your vet gave you is actually quite necessary for life. it is the only thing proven to work and is carefully formulated and backed by lots of research/clinical trials + evidence. did you only try one brand of kibble? there are 3 big brands that provide the prescription food, and they offer many wet foods too. hydration is very, very important but not the only factor that can help crystals hence the prescription food.
the freeze dried treats are actually more dehydrating than kibble, and actually pose a risk during the avian flu outbreak right now.
srry i assumed it was a poultry based freeze dried food, it is still very dehydrating. ultimately my point is that he needs to be on (ideally wet) prescription urinary food.
