About this product
1. Is Hill's Science Diet and Royal Canin the same thing?
Answer
No, Royal Canin and Hill's Science Diet are distinct pet food brands with different philosophies and formulations. NBC News notes that Royal Canin focuses on breed-specific nutrition, tailoring their products to meet the unique needs of different breeds and life stages. They prioritize scientific research and collaborate with veterinarians to create specialized diets. One popular product from Royal Canin is the Royal Canin Veterinary Diet Canine Urinary So Small Dog Dry Dog Food. On the other hand, Hill's Science Diet emphasizes a more holistic approach to pet nutrition, using high-quality ingredients to support overall health and wellness. They claim to use a precise balance of nutrients for optimal health. A well-known product from Hill's Science Diet is the Hill's Science Diet Adult Chicken & Barley Recipe Dry Dog Food.
2. Who is Hill’s Science Diet made by?
Answer
Hill's Pet Nutrition, Inc., a subsidiary of Colgate-Palmolive Company, manufactures and markets Hill's Science Diet. According to AVMA, Hill's Pet Nutrition is a well-established pet food company, and it has been producing pet foods for over 75 years. The brand was founded by Dr. Mark L. Morris Sr., a veterinarian, and his son Mark Morris Jr., a veterinarian as well. Hill's Science Diet is known for its commitment to providing high-quality, science-based nutrition for pets. The company emphasizes the importance of balanced and precisely formulated diets to support the overall health and well-being of cats and dogs. They claim to use clinically proven ingredients to create recipes that cater to different life stages, specific health conditions, and breed sizes. As a subsidiary of Colgate-Palmolive, Hill's Pet Nutrition benefits from the resources and research capabilities of the larger parent company. This contributes to the brand's reputation for producing pet foods that adhere to rigorous quality and nutritional standards.
3. Is Hill's Science Diet and Hill's Prescription Diet the same product?
Answer
Hill's Prescription Diet and Hill's Science Diet are two distinct lines of pet food products from Hill's Pet Nutrition, serving different purposes. Hill's Science Diet is dedicated to delivering well-balanced nutrition tailored to the diverse life stages and health requirements of pets without a veterinary prescription. The brand provides an extensive array of formulas designed for various breeds, sizes, and particular health considerations. For example, Hill's Science Diet Adult Sensitive Stomach & Skin Dry Cat Food is designed to address digestive and skin sensitivities in adult cats. On the other hand, Hill's Prescription Diet is a specialized line of therapeutic pet foods developed to manage specific health conditions. These diets are formulated to aid in the treatment of various medical issues such as kidney disease, urinary issues, or weight management. An example is Hill's Prescription Diet c/d Multicare Urinary Care Dry Cat Food, which is designed to support feline urinary health.
4. Why do vets push prescription food?
Answer
Chris Bern, a DVM from Atlanta notes that there is a myth that veterinarians receive commissions for recommending prescription diets. However, this is not true at all. Veterinarians recommend prescription diets primarily based on their professional judgment and the specific health needs of individual pets. Veterinarians often recommend prescription diets for several reasons, primarily centered around managing and addressing specific health issues in pets. Prescription diets are formulated with carefully selected ingredients that target certain medical conditions, providing therapeutic benefits that regular pet foods may not offer. These diets are often designed to support conditions such as kidney disease, urinary issues, gastrointestinal problems, allergies, or weight management. Vets may recommend prescription diets as part of a comprehensive treatment plan for pets with chronic health conditions. These diets are formulated based on scientific research and clinical studies, aiming to alleviate symptoms, slow disease progression, or manage specific nutritional needs. The controlled and specialized ingredients in prescription diets can play a crucial role in supporting the overall well-being of pets with health issues.
5. What ingredients should be left out in dog food?
Answer
When selecting dog food, it's crucial to be mindful of certain ingredients that may be less desirable for your pet's health. Avoid artificial additives, preservatives, and colors, as they can contribute to allergies and sensitivities. High levels of grains, especially fillers like corn and soy, may be challenging for some dogs to digest and can lead to food sensitivities. Additionally, excessive amounts of unhealthy fats, such as animal fat and certain vegetable oils, may contribute to obesity and other health issues. Look out for excessive amounts of salt, as it can lead to sodium ion poisoning in dogs. Sharon M. Gwaltney-Brant, a DVM from the University of Illinois notes that ingredients like artificial sweeteners (e.g., xylitol) are toxic to dogs. MSD Veterinary Manual notes that dogs may experience xylitol toxicosis upon consuming xylitol or products containing this sugar substitute. Depression, seizures, hypokalemia, vomiting, weakness, and coma are symptoms of xylitol toxicosis in dogs. Furthermore, steer clear of by-products that are unclear or unspecified, as they may not provide the necessary nutrition. Always read ingredient labels carefully, and consider consulting your veterinarian to choose a dog food that aligns with your pet's specific dietary needs.
