No longer a fan of Hills (verified owner) –
I have been purchasing Hill’s Science Diet for many years, with inconsistent quality of product. The last two 30 pound bags I purchased have me moving to a different brand. Both bags made my dog ill, with terrible gastric problems, including gas and discomfort that was so bad she couldn’t sleep. The food fresh from the bag smelled as if it had been soaked in chicken grease. This product’s inconsistent quality has moved me to purchase a different product which my dog likes and her stomach problems have resolved. Coincidentally, my dog has also developed several bumps on her skin and a large skin tag on her shoulder. Veterinarians don’t know what causes skin tags, so I don’t know if the apparent excess grease in the Hill’s dog food was the cause of the skin tags ;however, they just appeared while she struggled with this food.

I’ve switched my two hound dogs to this as soon as it was available and it’s helped them so much with itchy skin and sensitive stomachs. I do wish that the bags were available in a larger size as the boys go through it in just over a week.

This dog food has created a beast of a boi!! 190lb Rottweiler has grown large and in charge from Hills…..he’s a big fat fatty, and loves his food. My other two dogs (Shephard mix & American Bully) look great and have a great coat.
The Rottweiler has some serious skin Issues, I don’t think this necessarily helps it…but doesn’t seem to flair it up.
I buy a bag every week, for over 4 yrs now. It’s a solid dog food.

Oh boy this is the best dog food in the world! My dog can now leap tall buildings in a single bound, he’s faster than a bullet, more powerful than a locomotive. When I mix a few nuggets with my Cheerios it makes me more regular.

I bought this food for our dog Milo who was experiencing stomach problems a couple of months back. He seems to love it and hasn’t had any stomach or skin issues to date. The large bag is a better deal for me instead of buying the smaller one.

RottieLover (verified owner) –
My boy was having a bunch of GI and skin issues on other popular brands. Switched him to this food and it’s like a stand difference. Stool quality has greatly improved and no more itching and fur much softer and shiny. Hoping this also helps with shedding, time will tell. My only wish is for this to include joint support for the large pups and a tad bit larger kibble.

You guys need to figure out when to ask for a review and when not to!!
Little puker (verified owner) –
I bought this for a month when the large breed easy digestion was out of stock. My dog liked it. However, his coat became dull, shedding unmanageable, and his stools became constantly soft. His GI problems with throwing up were not helped, but not necessarily worse on this food. He did not develop hot spots, but it did not benefit his coat, either. I’m guessing the soft stools mean digestive problems and poor nutrition absorption. Changing back to the Perfect Digestion if I can find it or to the Prescription ID food ASAP for this poor guy.

I bought this for my male intact Standard Poodle who is very particular and weird about any food that isn’t stinky cheese—and he loves it!

DenMom (verified owner) –
My five year old German Shepherd is thriving on this kibble. He has mild seasonal allergies that are treated topically. His stomach does better on a food that includes grain (in this case rice) but doesn’t have lots of fruits or vegetables- like the alternative brands we have tried without success. The balance of protein and fat is just right. He looks forward to eating. I do add a few tablespoons of the canned variety of the Sensitive Stomach & Skin (turkey or chicken) with each meal.

My 5 yo Lab has been eating this 1 year and it has greatly helped his skin itching and stomach (vomiting) problems. For four years he was eating several other high priced fancy designer brands. He would get sick frequently,and itched all the time. This dog food really helped him. His coat is soft and shiny, eyes glisten, and is still participating in obedience. Lots of energy.
