Aweful food. Stay away from.. corn is one of the major ingredients along with chicken meal, barley, rice, oats, sorghum..ugh.. very bad for your dog. by on 06/15/2023
Fantastic Product
My dog hair is much better now, one year after starting with this food. Thank you for doing quality products by on 03/20/2023
My dogs love it!
My dogs have grass allergies. We had them on grain free in another brand, but they started having digestion issues. Our vet suggested we try this. Our dogs love the flavor. They try to burrow in it when we open a new bag. Their coats are now glossy, scratching and biting has stopped, and they are no longer having upset stomachs. Hooray! by on 05/07/2022

My dog loves this food and seems healthier because of it. by on 09/21/2020

Neither of dogs like this food. We've always had them on Science Diet. This new formula is definitely in the wrong direction for us. by on 08/07/2019
I would recommend for any senior dog!
I switched my dogs over to this diet as a recommendation by my veterinarian and I have absolutely loved it! Both of my little dogs have been on this food for about 1 year and they are both doing great. They are very energetic, their coats are beautiful, and both of them act as if they were 3 years younger! Would definitely recommend to any senior dog! by on 08/01/2019
Everyone thinks my 12 year old poodle is a puppy!
My 10 lb, 12 year old poodle can be a bit of a picky eater and is typically not food-motivated but switching to this product has got him engaged with his food for the first time in his life. Since he's been on Youthful Vitality, he gets a daily case of the zoomies, something he hasn't done in years! by on 12/17/2018
Excellent product!
My dog was having digestion issues with other food and my vet recommended Healthy Vitality. My dog loved it immediately and is thrilled when it is time for breakfast or dinner! I have recommended to friends with older dogs. I am so pleased that this food works perfectly for my boy! Thank you, Hills! by on 09/01/2018
Tasty Husky Food
My husky loves this food. She was on another grain free food as a puppy but once she got older I was looking for a new brand and picked science diet. My previous dog was on science diet and did great on it. I trust this brand and love the new bag with the velcro top! I hope to have my girl for many years and plan to feed her the best food I can afford. Thank you science diet. by on 08/28/2018
Best product!
I have a 6 year old golden retriever that started having hip problems. It was hard for her to get up after laying down or even stopped laying in bed. After taking to my vet I made the switch to science diet. And within 1-2 months I started seeing small differences. It's been a year on the food and she sleeps on the bed again. No more limping! Her coat is also 100x better. Way less visits to the groomer! Love the food! by on 08/22/2018
All varieties healthy and safe for our dogs.
With our veternarians' advice through the years, we have always been encouraged to purchase Science Diet for our large dogs. by on 08/31/2017
Picky too
We have two dog who will eat everything so making sure they get the right thing is important, and we have one who will not eat anything without checking it first. Hill's appeals to all three and the bowl is always empty. We have had as many as 13 dogs, we rescue, and they have all been fed Hill's by on 07/29/2017
So Happy
Should have tried this a long time ago. After a couple of months Brandy's itching was almost gone & her dark red skin was a light pink. Great product. by on 06/09/2017
Vet Recommended
I've been using Science Diet petfood since aquiring my Labrador in 2010. It was recommended to me by my veterinarian. I cannot give a full 5 stars because it is pricey and i cant compare it to something i have not tried yet. by on 04/18/2017
My Review
After just one bag my dog's skin has cleared up no more chewing himself raw no more constant licking coat soft and shiny want a relief by on 04/15/2017
Unsure of taste!
I have noticed that my pet is unsure of the taste. He will put in his mouth and spit out! His eating habits have changed. I don't believe he is happy with the new food. I didn't really see a change of his activity. He continues to sleep often and inactive. by on 04/05/2017
Lifelong Science Diet users
My husband is a retired veterinarian and we've used nothing but Science Diet for all our pets for well over 30 years. We were buying it back when the bags were brown and unlined! He always told clients if you care for your pet you'll either feed good quality food or spend your money on veterinary care....but you'd have an unhealthy pet. Our mother dogs always looked fit even right after giving birth, our pets always have had healthy, shiny coats, and the only problems they have had was getting in the way of cars....not a food related problem. You can't put junk in and expect to get quality of life out. We'll never feed anything else. by on 03/29/2017
No more vomiting.
We have two long hair Chihuahuas that we adopted from the shelter. We were feeding them the same dog food the shelter did, but they would throw up bile each time they ate. We switched to science diet and the vomiting stopped and they like the taste of Science Diet too. They are now more active and happier dogs! by on 03/20/2017
Lively dogs!
My two small dogs have been on Hill's food for several years, and now they're eating the Hill's Canine 7+ (healthy vitality) dry food. They both eat it happily, and the 11 year old seems to have extra pep in his step since he's been on it - bounces around like a puppy sometimes! My 7-year-old Chihuahua is always spry anyway. I would give this product 5 stars, but it does seem to make the dogs' feces softer than it used to be. All in all, this seems like a good food for older dogs that is helping my guys stay active. by on 03/12/2017
A+ for taste!
My dogs love the food! I'm not noticing a difference on activity level but they seem to enjoy the food a lot more. I love how small the kibble size is. It's perfect for my little ones. I'll continue to monitor their activity the next several weeks for changes. by on 03/10/2017
I have my active girl back!
My female rat terrier had always been addicted to fetch, but she had started slowing down in recent years especially after the passing of our other dog. With an introduction to the new food, she has returned to her usual active self and is loving fetch once again. by on 02/27/2017
Tasty food, great quality!
My Chihuahua really likes this food, the pieces are small and the food itself is very palatable. She gets excited to eat it and eats the entire portion pretty quickly. Her last food she seemed to enjoy but she would pick out various pieces and not eat them. As an older dog (almost 12) she sleeps a lot, but she does seem to have longer bursts of energy. I'm not sure if it's related to the change of food, but every night she becomes playful and wants to chase her ball, and recently it seems like she wants to play a little more exuberantly and for a longer period of time. My only concern is that the portion sizes seem to be a little large. With her last food, she was eating 1/4 per day, and was at a good weight with that much food. This food suggested she should get 1/2 cup. I've kept her on 1/4 cup per day, and she has maintained her weight. Every dog is different, however, so perhaps her metabolism and activity level are just low. Overall, I like this food, and think she has done well on it! by on 02/26/2017
Amazing food
His appetite has gotten better. He is thrilled when I open the bag for him to eat. Definitely a happier pet. by on 02/26/2017
Amazing Results
We had been using another food designed to improve cognitive function in our 10 year old Miniature Schnauzer. We were pleased with the results we saw with that food, so when the opportunity presented itself to try the similar product from Hill's with her, we were very excited. Well, the results were far better than we ever expected. Our 10 year old schnauzer now has more energy than our 5 year old Cairn terrier and is even more eager to play, jump up on the bed with out using the pet steps, barks at strangers again and is very alert. by on 02/26/2017
Wow Energy
Since going on this new food her energy level has increased almost double she's like a puppy again. The other day she didn't Zumiez in the yard Non-Stop without stop it. She gets excited to go for walks and loves the dog park again. She also loves the new food I don't have to put stinky what food on top to get her to eat it eat it just dry and her stool seems good and normal. When I run out I hope I can buy more. by on 02/26/2017
Awesome energy!
I see a lot more playfulness! Definitely more energy and spunk in my two little guys! by on 02/26/2017
My Dogs love it!!!
I have 4 little finicky eaters who empty every bowl of this that o put out! They were all rescued and had poor coats and other problems when I got them. Thanks to Hill's they are all looking fabulous and have more energy. I HIGHLY recommend this food to everyone. by on 11/20/2016
Pups love < 3
I have three chihuahuas over 7 years old. They are the most picky eating pups. Day one: they gobbled up the food. The small kibble was easy for them to eat yet, large enough for them to have to chew-which helps with their improved dental health-AKA dog breath. Week three: Honey has not climbed up the stairs in a little over a year. She is now running up and down the stairs and playing again at the age of 13.5. My grumpy pup, Petey, also 13.5, is happy to partake in playing as well. by on 11/19/2016
Great food
I tried the sample on Lucy. She loved the food and after four weeks I noticed she was more active and more willing to play. by on 11/13/2016
New easy seal bag
The Engineering and Marketing Departments scored a home run when they replaced the old fashion bag seal with a velcro type seal. It's easy to open and easy to close. Bravo! by on 07/13/2016
My Review
Been buying the product for quite some time I'd wish that I would receive more $10.00 coupon for my future purchase. Dogs love it. by on 07/09/2016
My dogs love it!
My two dogs were having some serious digestive issues with their old brand. Within a week the issues were completely gone. The funny thing is my female was picking out the hills pieces and leaving behind the old brand during the switch, so I feel like that speaks volumes for your product. Thanks again! by on 06/29/2016
Your senior dog food is the best!
Our Bernese Mountain Dog just received her annual checkup. The vet continues to be amazed at how healthy she is. Duchess shows absolutely no signs of aging other than sprinkles of white fur on her face. She just passed her Therapy Dogs International test, and my daughter shows her in obedience and agility in 4-H. Duchess clears the 20" jumps easily...and she will be 11 years old in March 2016. Last year at our state fair, one of the judges mistook Duchess for a 4 or 5 year old dog because she is so active and moves so well. She has been on Science Diet products all her life and currently enjoys your large breed senior products. We feel that her superior diet has contributed to her being in such amazingly good health. by on 12/30/2015
this product is great for all dogs
my dog loves the science diet dog food he eats it all up and its good for his stomach and bones to keep him healthy by on 10/22/2015

My dog has struggled with all food until now. Thanks by on 09/22/2015

My dogs love it but.......
The price of Science Diet has increase so much that it is getting very hard to feed my dogs (3) a quality food like Science Diet. by on 08/18/2015

My dog loves it!
Me and my wife switched from another band that contained additives that could have been harmful to our dog. Hills is gray and our dog loves it! Hands down a great choice by on 06/04/2015
This dog food is an excellent healthy choice
We have three large breed dogs and they have been on Science Diet since they were puppies and they are now 7 years old. Their energy is high, coats are shiny and they are still playful and in excellent health. by on 04/16/2015
great for older dogs
have an older dog in great shape and want to do everything I can to keep her that way. I believe feeding her science diet will help. by on 12/18/2014
This product is very good for joint issues, even for young
This product is very good for joint issues, enjoys. by on 12/02/2014
My dog loved this
I have to feed grain free for my older dog and he is very picky. Had a coupon and tried the science diet grain free and he loved it. by on 10/06/2014
Food that my dog loved from the start....
I have a dog with various health issues so I'm careful as to what I feed him. I switched to the Hills Grain Free because is was slightly less expensive than the other grain free food brand I was feeding my dog and Hills offers coupons from time to time. From the minute I set the food down my dog loved it and, knock on wood, he hasn't had any bouts of diarrhea (which is one problem I was having with him). Love the Velcro closure on the bag, always a tight seal! by on 10/02/2014
Dog lovesit
Great flavor the dog enjoys the food what else you want me to say by on 09/25/2014
My 12 year old Rottweiller was not eating on a regular daily
My 12 year old Rottweiller was not eating on a regular daily basis. We were concerned so we tried Science Diet - now she chows down every day. We think it has given her new life. She was getting thin and weak, now she's walking the block every day and she looks healthier. We hope she makes it to ripe old age of 15 on Science Diet. Pretty long life for a Rotty! Great dog food! by on 09/08/2014
My dog loves it
I like the size of kibble my 16 yr old dog doesn't choke on it. by on 08/23/2014
Love food
Hi, my lab is 10 years old, and love the food, but I donยดt know why she is still hungry, I just change the food. by on 08/22/2014
The price is excellent
My dog enjoys this product and the grain free treats. by on 08/03/2014
This food has great results.
We like this food because it makes my dog have to go outside less. He seems quite healthy too. I recommend Science Diet to everyone. by on 08/01/2014
good but expensive
my dog seems to like the food and product seems to be healthy but it does cost a bit more than other brands. by on 07/21/2014
we have only fed our dogs with Science Diet! We appreciate
As we see other dog food companies have recalls for problems with the quality of their food, we have never seen this with Science Diet. We had our first dog for 15 years and she only ate dry Science Diet. Now, we have two dogs for 10+ years and, again, they have only consumed Science Diet. Please keep up the wonderful quality control! And, don't change the formula--if it ain't broke, don't fix it! by on 07/16/2014
The product is a great value.
Our 3 dogs just love the adult large breed food. They consume a lot of it, so it helps that Science Diet coupons are available! by on 07/14/2014
dog appeal
have two completely breeds , pekinese and shi tzu/chiua mix and have tried lots of different grain free brands and your brand both the salmon and chicken are the only one that they both like. i use grain free in my battle against yeast infections since i live in humid florida and grain free is definately a factor in wellness for my dogs by on 07/09/2014
undesirable
I have two large senior dogs and neither one likes this dry food. I have even tried mixing Science Diet can with it and pouring chicken broth on it to give it better flavor. by on 06/25/2014
American Made
Our two dogs safety and health are important. AMerican made is critical. This is a quality product that meets our needs. by on 06/19/2014
My dogs love the taste!
This food works well for my dogs, and keeps them healthy and happy. Also, it doesn't give them much flatulence which is always a perk! by on 06/05/2014
Science Diet Grain Free
I feed my 14 year old Science Diet Grain Free. My dog is a picky eater and likes it. The Vets recommended it after we ran into a dry dog food that was on a recall and my dog got sick. It has no fillers and is healthy and does not put weight on my dog by on 05/05/2014
Great for my dog's skin and coat
I was looking for a dog food that would help with my dogs skin and coat, as well as shedding and better digestive health. I have found it! Science Diet has always been a brand I trust and this new formula is just what my dog needed. by on 04/25/2014
Love the product and so does my dog, Sam!
I am especially pleased with the fact that my dog does not require as much food as with other dog food products. He stays fuller longer, his appearance is beautiful (Golden Retriever) and looks so healthy. Thanks for a good product! by on 04/08/2014
came apart
Most of the dog food came apart and I had a lot of dust crumbs throughout the large bag. I had to sift the food before I could serve it. What a waste. It was a very expensive bag of food ! Later I bought another bag and had the same results. by on 04/05/2014
Grain Free Dry Dog Food
One of the pugs I have been fostering has serious digestive issues. I have tried many grain free high quality foods and Hills Science Diet is the absolute best. I also use the grain free wet food. My only complaint is about the high price. Its worth it if it keeps my little guy healthy though. by on 03/02/2014
Didn't agree with my dog
This product did not agree with my dog's system. We tried it when the formula changed on another one of your products. It didn't work for our pet. by on 02/24/2014
I like this food for my pet
The mature diet has been really great for my girl. She loves it, it meets all her nutrition needs. by on 12/22/2013
Our dogs loved this food!
We got a gift basket that included Ideal Balance Grain Free dry and canned dog food and dog treats and our dogs loved them! The box was delivered and our 13 year old Chinook tried to chew through the box to get to the goodies inside. When we tried the canned food we were pleased with the consistency, and the dogs really seemed to like the flavor. We tried the treats solo and then offered them with other treats and they selected the Ideal Balance treats first -- that seems like a good testimony to me. by on 12/18/2013
Missy my German Shepard
Missy was a rescue dog that I had gotten from a bad situation. I fed her Hill's® Science Diet® Adult Grain Free because she had a grain sensitivity and she was underweight at first. I've had her now for about a year now and she's right sized with a healthy and beautiful coat. She is healthier and I thank Hill's for helping get this dog right. by on 12/01/2013
Great food
My two labs love it. They are 12 & 14 years old and have lots of energy and are happy and healthy. by on 11/24/2013
My dog loved it!
I like that its grain free. My dog didn't even notice that it was different from what I had been feeding her! by on 11/14/2013
science diet dry food
My dog was put on the food by my vet and she is as healthy as a bull, and has been in good shape every since. by on 10/30/2013
Science Diet is loved by hy household
I have 6 senior rescued dogs (4 are Great Danes) and 3 rescued cats. Your product is the only product I could find that all my pets will eat with NO side effects. They all enjoy the taste, their coat is soft and shiny, no ear irritations, and best of all... no runny stool. I love Science Diet and so do my pets. by on 10/28/2013
Great product
My dog loves the food. Vet thinks it will extend his life over other dog food out there. I wish it wasn't so expensive, I want to keep buy this food, but not sure my budget will allow. by on 10/22/2013
Great Product
My two dogs love this food. Ever since I started using it, my Lab's ears don't itch anymore and neither does her skin. GREAT product. by on 10/19/2013
Great food
Our oldest is a pretty picker eater but she really took to this food. Both of our girls absolutely love it!! It's a way healthier option than others on the market. by on 09/29/2013
.grain free dry adult
This grain-free option has been a good option for our miniature pomeranian. This is the only food we feed her.She is very active The size of the pieces are just right, too. I will definitely buy it again. by on 09/26/2013
What comes out is as important as what goes in...
I have taken to rescue dogs... and they have taken to me. I have 4. The fact is, taking care of a dog - any dog/dogs - is more than feeding and sheltering and exercising them. It's also the cleanup of what they leave behind... and what goes INTO them can effect how their coats shed, and their other, uh, needs... nutrition, of course, but also the plumbing. < grin> This food has my guys running smoothly, predictably, and comfortably. It allows us to really love and spend quality time together all day, every day. And I tried NUMEROUS other foods before we could say that! by on 09/26/2013
Love SD Grain Free
This is a great product. My dog loves it and I feel a lot better for feeding it to him. I've noticed a difference in his energy and happiness. by on 09/25/2013

My dog loves this food!
My vet wanted me to try this on my 12 yr old Beagle he has always had some issues with food. He loves this food and he is doing really well is like a puppy again. The only draw back is its pretty expensive. by on 09/22/2013
My dog is excited to eat this product.
My dog was having some skin & stomach problems. I gave him a taste test of 3 different products. He chose Hill's Science Diet. He likes all the varieties of your product that I've tried. by on 09/08/2013
Very Balanced- Pets love it
I have 3 chihuahuas and they have sensitive stomachs. They don't seem to get as much of an upset stomach with this product and they seem to like it very much. This product along with heathy snacks leads to a well balanced diet. by on 06/30/2013
Okay Product
I am happy to see Science Diet attempting to improve the quality of its dog food by introducing grain free, but kibble is still kibble. It's not the best food to feed a dog. Dogs need natural, unprocessed, fresh food. by on 06/30/2013
Big dog, small stools.
Our large dogs eat the product, like the product, and are healthy. Why the software would not accept my previous positive review remains a mystery. by on 06/30/2013
This product is the best
After trying several other dog food, only to return to Science Diet. This is a top rate product and I highly recommend this for your dog. by on 06/29/2013
great product!
we have always used science diet for our dogs. My golden was putting on a little weight, so we switched him to the mature adult formula and he has lost a lot since. His skin and coat are in top condition! by on 08/21/2012
My dog loves it.....
My 10 year old Dalmation seems to be much more active since feeding him this food. With other foods he had no energy and just laid around all the time. We are very happy with this food! by on 08/14/2012
Happy dog
Love the product, has stuff for the brain and bones. My dog loves the product. It never up set his belly, like some other brands did. by on 07/05/2012
My dogs LOVE it!
My dogs all go crazy for this variety of food. They show a definite preference for it over any other brand! by on 05/26/2012
Great food that my dog LOVES!
My 8 yr old Deutsch Drahthaar eats this food and looks and feels great! We have tried other formulas and other brands and he just doesn't do as well as he does on this food. He has lots of energy, his coat is shiny and thick, and most importantly he LOVES it! Thanks Hill's for making great food that I know I can count on. I want to give my pet the best and that is exactly what you offer. by on 05/20/2012
Great product that my dog enjoys
I tried a couple different of dog food brands for my dog before deciding to stick to what my vet originally recommended for him. It was the only brand that has not made him sick. He is a 7 year old and is healthy. I plan to always use science diet for him and any other dog I will have someday. by on 05/19/2012
Great value!
I started my dog on Science diet about 3 years ago and noticed a change after a few months. Not only did she shed those few extra pounds, but her coat has a beautiful sheen that she didn't have while feeding the other mid-priced dog food. In the end I am only paying a few dollars a month more vs. the mid-priced brands, as Science diet has less fillers and other stuff she doesn't need, so she gets full on less. Also there is less waste to scoop, as she ingests less unneeded fillers! Worth the couple dollars extra! by on 05/19/2012
My Two Dogs
My two like the taste. They thrive on this dog food. I like the results I'm seeing in their over all health, looks, and attitudes. by on 05/18/2012
9 year old golden loves it!
My 9 year old golden eats this food each day and loves it. It helps him keep his body weight to an ideal condition and people always compliment him on the shininess of his coat. We had tried other types of science diet before trying this one and it seems that this one is his favorite. by on 05/18/2012
Research & Science knows best
Their Rx food saved my dog from liver failure and now all 5 dogs are fed Science Diet food and two are on this formula. I am very happy with their energy, coats, and overall health. by on 05/18/2012
My dogs fur is nice and shiny because of this food
I have tried other foods and my dogs fur is not nearly as soft or shiny as it is when she is eating science diet. I would recommend this product to anyone who loves their dog and wants them to be healthy! by on 05/17/2012
We wouldn't give them anything but Science Diet
We have had two Chocolate Labs over the past 13 years and have only given them Science Diet Large Breed. Without fail, whenever someone has met one of our dogs, their first comment is "What a beautiful coat!" And they have never gotten tired of the food--still drooling over each meal. Our current dog, CoCo, is eating the Mature Adult brand now, as we like the assurance that she is getting the additional vitamins and supplements that she needs in this stage of life. by on 05/17/2012
Great product
Changed to the Mature Adult-Large Breed this past February for my brindle boxer. He had no digestion problems with the change whatsoever (did do a mixture for a couple of days). This is my 2nd boxer & have always used Science Diet. It's a wonderful product! by on 05/17/2012
My Dogs Love Science Diet!
Me and my husband rescue dogs and we have 4 dogs right now and they love eating science diet. We have never fed them anything else besides science diet. Sometimes i wish science diet would come out with more coupons for all their types of dog food. It would always help out with who has to buy dog food every week. Our dogs run out of the big 30 pound dog food almost every 9-10 days so we have to keep buying more dog food.. We love feeding them science diet and will always feed them science diet =) by on 05/17/2012
Can't get enough!
My puppy is an 11 year old boxer and he adores this food! He begs for it and he doesn't beg for any other pet food. He is still very active, we walk for about 2 miles every day, and I believe this food and other Science Diet food helps him stay young and active. Thank you Science Diet for prolonging my baby's life! by on 05/17/2012
A food I feel good about feeding to my dog
My 11 1/2 year old Belgian Malinois is a huge fan of Science Diet Mature Adult Large Breed. I briefly changed him to another food, which I thought was going to be a better value...but he quickly put on weight--alot of weight. And extra weight, especially in an older, large breed dog, can spell disaster. With this food we were able to get him back to a healthy weight in no time, and now he has more energy. Other than his white fur, you would never know how old he is--because he is still able to run and play! It may cost a little more than that other brand, but it is worth every penny in keeping my dog healthy. by on 05/16/2012
My senior dog loves it!
My dog is a yellow lab/german shepherd mix. He is 15 years old and he loves this dog food. He is healthy and has an active life... I believe partly from this quality dog food, as well as, taking good care of him and giving him lots of love. I would recommend it to the people who have an older big dog. by on 05/16/2012
This product is outstanding
I have fed both of my dogs this product for a few years now. Even though it's properly identified as for "mature adult dogs", which my dogs are, they both still act like puppies except that the older male dog sleeps a little longer than he used to. by on 05/16/2012
Dog is healthy/happy/satisfied-so I am too
My eight year old lab has had nothing but Sience Diet since weening and Vet's recommendation. She has always been healthy, very active,and like most Labs, always willing to eat all we give her. No intent or reason to try anything else. by on 05/16/2012

Endorsed by my 12 yr old puppy!
We have multiple dogs, all rescues. One of them came to us in early 2003. He was a 100lb 3 year old shelter dog, frightened and ravenous. The first few weeks he managed to barrel his way past us out the front door and ran, but luckily we got him back unharmed. These days, 9 years later, we open the door and he stays put. We think it's because he knows where the food lives. He's now 12+ years old and a svelte 74lbs. He runs around the yard with the other dogs like a puppy, and he can jump high enough to see over the 7' block fence. He's healthy, has a shiny coat, and he's a very happy boy. I attribute that to quality food and lots of love. What more could you ask for? by on 05/16/2012
I like this product in the fact that it targets the joints
I have 4 dogs all of which are over the age of 7. They are eat the joint and bone dog food and have done great. Two of the dogs have had reconstructive knee and hip replacements and have found this to prolong their activity by on 05/16/2012
any science diet food
all my dogs eat Science diet, My dalmatian lived to be 16 in great health and playful even into old age. I've worked for veterinarians for 25 years, I've seen many clients get new puppies and see then developed and live to old age. The ones that lived the healthiest and longer better quality of lives were always feed the best foods. Science diet is one of those foods. grocery store or ware house foods are like feeding junk food to you pet every single day. stick with Science Diet its a great product!!! by on 05/16/2012
Trying to trim the budget
No matter how you trim your budget in today's economy, plese don't change from Hill's Science diet dog food to a cheaper brand. I did, and suffered the uneventful..your animal deserves the best. by on 05/16/2012
2 labs -- Science Diet recommended by Vet years ago
I have been feeding my 2 labs Science Diet brand dry food for years. Currently I buy the Mature Adult Large Breed as both labs are over 7 years old now. My first lab would have digestion trouble if I switched his food say from a regular variety to a light variety -- same brand. Ever since I switched to Science Diet -- my lab has not had any digestive troubles at all. Both labs have very shiney coats and are both very active!!! by on 05/16/2012
It is a good product and it keeps my dog who is almost 9
This product is a a bit pricey and we are always looking for coupons to get it a bit cheaper. However, the price is worth having our dog be as happy as she can be. She is 8 1/2 years old and moves around like she is 4-5 years old again. She runs around our yard all the time. We switched to a different brand a few years ago because it was cheaper, but she seemed a bit sluggish, so we put her back on science diet and she has been full of energy ever since. Great product. Keeps her regular too! by on 05/16/2012
My dog loves it
My Dalmation loves this and also seems to be more satisfying than alot of other brands. by on 05/16/2012
Good amount of nutrients.
This food has everything my dog needs to stay healthy, the only downfall is that it is a lot more expensive than the Adult food. by on 05/16/2012
This product has great nutrition for your dog!
This product is loved by my dogs. I highly recommend this product to anyone who loves their dogs! This will add years to their lives and they are like family members to me. Thanks and enjoy this terrific product. by on 05/16/2012
Great dog food
Our St. Bernard mix "Bruno" suffered for year's from skin condition's and excessive shedding. We consulted with our vet and tryed a litany of med's that didn't help. Bruno ended up at a different vet's office for an unrelated emergency. While we were there, the vet noticed his hair loss and skin, and told us to get him off that "stuff" (not his exact word's) and start feeding him something better (he was eating a brand name food) the vet highly reccommended Hill's. What an AMAZING difference! Within 2 week's his skin was getting better, and the hail loss had almost completely stopped! We also noticed his outside business was much easier and regular for him. Will NEVER feed anything else.....cannot say enough good thing's! - Dave & Cindy by on 05/16/2012
This food meets the needs of both my dogs
I have been using this product for two years now with my two Yellow Labs. They love it and are both in excellent health! by on 05/16/2012
Wouldn't Change Products For Anything
I'm going on 60 and I've fed all of my dogs Science Diet, the original (not the newer naturals). Each of my dogs, and there have been many, thrive on this food. Regardless of the media, I'm a firm believer that, even though my dogs are as important to me as my family, their nutritional needs differ from humans and from all past history, Science Diet has proven to provide a very healthy and long life and I believe provides exactly what my dogs need in every nutritional aspect. They can keep these new fangled products. I'll stick with what I know works. by on 05/16/2012
Another Solid Science Diet Product
Science Diet dry dog food is a bit pricy, but for an aging dog you cannot replace the value it has on their quality of life. No other dog food comes close to the benefits this provides. And, if my dog loves it (as she does) then it can't be wrong. I recommend not skimping and giving this product a try. by on 05/16/2012
My dogs love it
I have two collies from rescue. One is over 10 now and the other is pushing 10 and she still acts like a puppy. I like that Science diet offers a Large Breed formula for older dogs. It is very palatable (I use it for treats, too), and they maintain a nice lean, healthy weight on this food. by on 05/16/2012
Feed since a puppy...
I have fed Science Diet to my Bull Mastiff since he was a puppy. He is now 7 years old & still seems to enjoy it. The kernels are perfect size for his big mouth. Other brand food is to small & it gets lost in his mouth. Highly recommend Science Diet for ALL breeds. by on 05/16/2012
My dog loves this food
My German Shepherd has been eating Science Diet for 10 years! She loves the taste and I love the healthful benefits to her! I recommend this food to everyone! by on 05/16/2012
