Customers say

Customers overwhelmingly praise this puppy food for its positive impact on health, appetite, and well-being. Most puppies eagerly eat it, with owners noting visible improvements in coat shine, digestion, and energy levels. Veterinarians consistently recommend it, and many customers continue using it based on professional endorsement. Reviewers highlight better digestion, firmer stools, and suitability for sensitive stomachs. The kibble size and freshness are appreciated. A very small number report their puppies showed little interest, but this is vastly outweighed by enthusiastic positive feedback.

I love science diet food for my puppy. He eats it great, there is a lot less stool. I know it has everything nutritionally he needs. I know he will grow up to be a very healthy dog!

Great for Foster Pups

Feeding this to 2 foster puppies I’ve had for a few weeks. They love it and have been using it as treats thru out the day. Our animal shelter uses this version and I would strongly consider it when I decide to get another dog of my own. In the meantime the foster pups are going thru lots of it!

Was given a bag of this dog food when we first got my daughter’s puppy. The vet gave us a big bag to try. The puppy loved it- even my adult dog kept trying to get into the puppies! The vets always recommend it as one of the best kibble options.

Hill's Science Diet Puppy Chicken & Brown Rice is a very good option for puppies. It has high-quality protein to support muscle growth, which helps with brain and vision development. It also contains balanced vitamins and minerals for strong bones and teeth, plus easy-to-digest ingredients to support a healthy digestive system. All of that helps your Frenchie grow healthy, active, and happy.

Questions

1 - 10 of 10 Questions

What is the expiry of these products?

  1. I just bought some last month February 28th 2026 and I looked on my bag and it says Best buy May 2027. But that is unopened. Once you open it it usually has a shelf life of around 2 months. Depending on how you keep it. I would recommend if you're going to spend the money for quality dog food like this that you invest in a dog food container with a screw top to lock out any moisture or air.



are this puppy kibbles larger than the small bites?

  1. Thank you for your inquiry. Our Hill's Science Diet Puppy Chicken & Brown Rice Recipe features kibble that is approximately 10mm x 4mm. In comparison, the Hill's Science Diet Puppy Small Bites Chicken & Brown Rice Recipe has kibble that is about 6.5mm x 4mm, and the Hill's Science Diet Adult Small Bites Chicken & Barley Recipe Dog Food has kibble measuring approximately 9.5mm x 5.5mm. We hope this is helpful. Hill's Pet Nutrition



Is the bag resealable?

  1. Yes, it has a wide Velcro to reseal that does not wear out through full use of product. 



About How long will it take to go through a 30lb bag for a mini dachshund puppy? 

  1. I have a 22 lb mix and it took him two + months to go through a bag. 



How big are the nuggets? My pup was on the large breed puppy food & the nuggets were just too big- are these the same size or smaller? Thank you.

  1. Thank you for your question. This kibble is certainly smaller when compared to the Puppy Large Breed food. We hope that your pup loves it! Hill's Pet Nutrition



puppy gas

  1. Thank you for your question. Science Diet may be a viable option. Bad gas could be a sign of a food allergy or sensitivity. Trying different foods or consulting your veterinarian would both be potential solutions.



When my wheaton turns one, which sceince diet dry do I feed her ?

  1. We are happy to answer your question! Since your puppy has enjoyed Hill's Science Diet Healthy Development Original Puppy Food, our Science Diet® Adult Advanced Fitness Original Dog Food would be a good adult food for her. As with any change in pet foods, we always recommend a gradual transition. If your Wheaton has any medical conditions, please consult with your veterinarian.



Switching to adult food

    how often do I feed a 12 week old puppy

    1. Three times a day. Especially the smaller breed dogs and the larger breed dogs. Always refer to the dog food bag and your vet for additional guidance.



    I have a 6 months french bulldog and i dont know if he will eat the small or large breed and wich type of the puppy ones, can you help me?

    1. Since your dog is small, he will need a small breed dog food. Wellness puppy dog food is great. I started my American Bulldog on it but I had to change since I found out he is allergic to chicken. Other than that, I recommend wellness since it has no by products, fillers, or ingredients that may be found in Science diet. Bull dogs have more sensitive tummies than most breeds
