Buy Hills Science Diet Adult Grain Free Dog Food

Customer Ratings:

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program I don't purport to be an expert on dog food -I just will say that my shih tzu likes this food just fine and hasn't had any issues with it. I generally free feed her and she keeps her bowl cleaned out! So it must taste pretty good -at least to my dog. And fortunately, the cats stay away from it. I don't notice any other differences in how my dog looks or behaves, but then again, I wasn't expecting to.

The ingredient list is interesting -reads like a salad bar, with all sorts of fruits and vegetables -potatoes, peas, beet pulp, cranberries, apples, carrots, and broccoli. Who knew? I'm guessing that dogs don't get beets and broccoli in their natural habitat. The bag has a big "Grain Free" banner across the front, but the second listed ingredient is potatoes, followed by peas, pea protein concentrate, and potato starch. I don't know if potatoes as a replacement for grain is all that beneficial to dogs -but it's probably better than corn filler. Since Hills purports to be the brand preferred by veterinarians, it must be pretty healthy. The label reads "adult 1-6, but I couldn't find any explanation of what that means. I'm assuming it is for dogs aged 1 to 6.

The package boasts of the following benefits:

-Prebiotic fibers from beet pulp contribute to good digestive health

-Natural, high-quality ingredients plus vitamins, minerals and amino acids; no artificial colors, flavors, or preservatives

-Omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acides from flaxseed and soybean oil promote a radiant and luxurious coat

-High-quality chicken helps maintain a healthy heart; vitamins E & C support your dog's immune system and promote healthy vision

This is kind of pricey -but for me, the large bag will last forever. Doubt that is the case if you have several big dogs around the house, and this could get expensive in a hurry.

Overall, I was pretty impressed, but I'm not sure I would shell out this kind of money for dog food on an ongoing basis.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program This food marks a new and welcome direction for Hill's Science Diet dog foods. In the past, Science Diet gained much of its reputation through being sold in veterinarians' offices, implying that vets considered it a superior food. In reality, it was a lower quality, grain-based formula with great marketing, including about a 40% profit margin for vets who sold it.

The Hill's Science Diet grain-free line is a great improvement in the Science Diet formulas. Although it still contains some questionable carbohydrates (potatoes, for example), they are not ones usually implicated in allergies, as wheat and corn are (by "questionable" I don't mean potatoes are a bad ingredient, just that whether dogs derive good nutrition from them is questionable). A high-quality protein source, chicken, is the #1 ingredient.

My dog ate this eagerly, but that doesn't really mean much with this particular dog, who eats anything eagerly, including some things I don't consider edible at all. She did have just a touch of digestive upset when we first switched over; however, she's doing fine on it now. I feed a variety of high-quality pet foods, and Hill's Science Diet Grain Free will have a place in the lineup.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program I have been using Hills's Science Diet in a different variety. I was feeding their Adult Lamb Meal & Rice Recipe Small Bites dog food and my dogs love it.

They love the taste of this one too. It's first ingredient is chicken, then potatoes and yellow peas.

My dogs love this high quality food. I feel good giving my dogs what they need.

It does cost more, but looking at the ingredients of some cheaper dog foods can be quite an eye opener.

I want my dogs healthy and happy.

For me this food ensures that I am feeding my dog one of the most nutricious foods there is.

Honest reviews on Hills Science Diet Adult Grain Free Dog Food

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program I've been trying out Hill's Science Diet for the last month, after switching my 55 lb husky/shepherd mix to it from Orijen Adult. My dog is very active, but I only feed him 2.5 cups of the Orijen a day. The feeding guide recommended 3-4 cups for my dog's weight, so I went with the lower end since it seemed like a lot more food than he was used to. The kibble is fairly small. Hill's does say they have food for larger breed dogs (over 55 lbs), but my dog didn't have a problem with the smaller kibble size. He seems to enjoy it and most importantly, he doesn't have any digestive problems on it at all. He still has plenty of energy on our hikes and his coat looks great. I haven't been able to see an actual improvement in his coat since I was feeding him a high quality dog food to begin with, but his shedding does seem to have decreased. One thing to note about the Hill's Science "Grain Free" formula, is that it eliminates several of the controversial ingredients from the regular Hill's Science Diet Adult Dry dog food.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program There are two things I look for when buying dog food for my dogs, it is healthy for them and they will actually eat it. Hills Science Diet Adult Grain Free Dog Food fits both description as one of the healthier options you can buy for your dogs. Plus both my dogs licked their bowls clean, then went to the other's bowl and licked it clean too. One of my dog has had some dental health problems and is missing most of his teeth, but he had no problem chewing this brand.
