Hill’s purchases help feed shelter pets

What is science-led nutrition?
Nutrition inspired by science — not trends — creates differences you can see, feel and trust. Our food scientists understand the combinations of nutrients and ingredients to help support lifelong health.
How much should I feed my pet?
Most Science Diet foods have a feeding guide on the package to help you determine the proper amount for your pet. It’s critical to your pet’s health that his or her physical condition be monitored regularly and the feeding amount adjusted as needed.
How can I tell if an unopened can or bag of dog food is still good?
The datecode on our plastic bags is located on the left gusset, near the 4 or 5-digit SKU number, toward the bottom of the bag. The datecode on our medium and large bags will be located on the top of the bag, generally the front flap.
How should I store my dog’s dry food?
Bags of dry Science Diet dog food should be stored in a cool, dry environment under 100°F (38°C).

Good dog food but….
I use to feed our dogs Science dog food.It’s a good quality dog food that my vet recommends because they do their research on what a dog actually needs to thrive. But I had to change to another brand because the Science Diet dog food was getting to expensive .So I started feeding another brand that was less expensive that my vet recommended.The dogs love the new brand as much as the old.Buy a quality dog food and save money at the same time.

Dogs say good food
My dogs seem to like it alright. If they could talk they would probably say “tasty stuff”. Mike fed us a little more at dinner time. We like the crunch. Breakfast and dinner would be more enjoyable if added with Hill’s beef stew mixed in.

Highly recommend
I have 2 shih tzus who love this food. My 2 year old shih tzu is the pickiest eater EVER, tends to have a sensitive stomach & gets really itchy sometimes. I have tried multiple brands of dog food over the years with him. He would turn his nose up to almost all of them, have to be bribed with treats to eat others or it would bother his stomach. I had my dogs on a grain free diet until my vet recently told me about some breeds developing dilated cardiomyopathy & studies have linked it to grain free diets. I didn’t want to take any chances so I decided to try this brand & I’m so glad I did. It definitely lives up to the hype & is worth the money. When I introduced this brand my picky eater immediately started eating it. Now he eats his dog food with no issues! This hasn’t bothered his stomach at all & he seems to be way less itchy after only a month. I would definitely recommend trying it!

Should have listened to the dogs
I had been feeding my 2 small pups Blue Buffalo since I got them a little over a year ago when they were just 4 months old. I gave in to the advertising that, although pricey, Blue Buffalo was exceptionally healthy and grain-free is the way to go. However, after recently talking to the vet, I was told that grain-free diets (especially those fed BB) were the cause of hundreds of cases of heart failure in dogs. The vet gave me a list of better options which I took home and did more research on, Hills Science was graded an A+ so I decided to give it a shot. The price is also a tad bit less than what I was paying for the other brand.Not to mention, when feeding them Blue Buffalo, my dogs never really enjoyed their food like they should, I even tried switching flavors several times. With the Hill’s food, THEY LOVE IT. It smells like stinky goldfish crackers but I find the stinkier….the more the dogs like it LOL

I use to feed this for many years. Then they added chicken meal.
As soon as I reread the ingredients and found the chicken meal had been added I instantly changed to a dog food that didn’t have all that added ingredients that I don’t want my dog’s to have. I was very disappointed that it had been changed.

Been feeding my dog this specific kibbles since birth – Vet says she is one healthy dog!
Been feeding my dog this specific kibbles since birth. She is now 3 years old.Just went for a yearly check up, and the vet said she is one healthy dog!As for the price, always compare other stores such as Petsmart and Petco. With online coupons, it is sometimes cheaper to buy it elsewhere than Amazon.Hope my review helps!

One Of My Dogs Is A Picky Eater
I was afraid to switch over to a new dog food again. I have been switching about every year for four years, actually more than four times I have switched their food. I know its not good to switch a dogs food that often, but my dog Lionel is a picky Chihuahua who I need to sit next to in order for him to even want to eat his food. Its been a week since using this dog food, and he loves it so much that he is actually excited to eat and doesn’t need me next to him to focus on eating his food. I never post reviews, but wanted to shout this out to people with small dogs that have a hard time finding a food they like. Molly my other dog will eat anything, so she is happy with it as well.

The healthy food my Dog loves.
I recently discovered that some dog foods that contain legumes can cause health problems for dogs. I went on a search for the very best dog food I could find that didn’t contain harmful products. This has been great. My Dog loves the flavor and I haven’t seen problems with gas or digestion. The food I was buying before was over $7 a pound and we thought it was the best. This brand beats it hands down so far, and for almost a third the cost. My dog empties the bowl almost as soon as I fill it. She never did this before with dry food. Also it helps keep her teeth clean and breath fresh. I can’t say enough.

Science Diet Dog Food
Science Diet Dog Food has been used in my home for over 24 years. I had an adopted miniature rat terrier (not positive) and a brindled longhair dachshund mix. Respectively they they lived for 14 and 18 years. They are still missed! Two years ago I adopted a multi poo (pretty sure). This fur baby is also feed Science Diet…would not use anything else.

My Watch Dogs Timex and Rolex love this Dog Food
My watch dogs, Timex and Rolex go through a bag of Hill’s Science Diet Adult Small & Toy Breed Dry Dog Food, Chicken Meal & Rice Recipe with squirrel sauce every month. They grab a mouth full, then bring it in the great room, drop it on the rug to eat with us. The Hill’s Science Diet Adult Small & Toy Breed Dry Dog Food, Chicken Meal & Rice Recipe has all the protein and nutrients they need for a well balanced meal. Since they regulate themselves, I leave it down and refill their bowls when they’re empty.

Yummy for puppy tummy
All good reviews coming from our Posey boy….not Buster……though he was in fact named after the 2010 Rookie of the year, subsequent MVP & allstar BUSTER POSEY….our little guy is just Posey.🧡🖤🐶I’ve noticed his digestion is quicker than when he,@ a tiny 4ish lbs, was on Costco’s brand. It was our initial go to because of great recommendations by family & friends. Equally as important, combined w/ a mint greenie & some good🪥, his little breath is clean all day…..That is after brushing his warm cute morning breath away.🫢😅

The only dog food we buy
This is our 4th dog and this is the only dog food brand we’ll buy! It was recommended by our veterinarian when our dog was overweight and we’ve used ever since with our new dog too! Some dog foods make dogs gassy and stink horrendously but this seems to ease any and all tummy problems and leaves no after effects for them and keeps their gas to a bare minimum practically non existent and makes them not stink!!! And even when picking up and disposing has minimal odor!!!

Add puréed pumpkin to pep up flavor
My dog wasn’t eating every day so it’s safe to add a little bit of organic purée pumpkin and mix it with the kibble. Then I hear it slightly. She never skips a day and she is more peppy. The heat makes it stink and all dogs love stinky food and stuff. 😂

My Dog’s love it, cheaper than purchasing from vet, no negatives for me so far
Was a little bit skeptical due to some of the negative reviews, But ordered it anyway, and that was the best decision I made. Did not have to ween my dog’s off their old food. Put it in the bowl and they loved it, did not have to mix wet food in at all. I am now 4 months in and dog’s still love it.

Good for Maltese
I started off with boutique organic grain free dog food and she had a lot of stomach issues. Switched to small paws because of the kibble size and no more issues. Vet recommended it to all her patients later anyway. 9 lb adult Maltese female. She gets 494 calories a day which is a little more than 2/3 cup per day. Plus blue buffalo treats.
