Lamb and Rice

My puppy has a sensitive tummy. We usually feed her Science Diet Chicken and Rice but thought we would try the Lamb and Rice to add a bit of variety to her diet

My puppy has a sensitive tummy. We usually feed her Science Diet Chicken and Rice but thought we would try the Lamb and Rice to add a bit of variety to her diet. I have given Lainey a small amount of the lamb and rice twice now. Although she eats very slow, Lainey has vomited this food up both times, unprocessed, anywhere from 2 to 6 hours after she eats it. I'm unsure why she can't process Lamb and Rice, especially since when introducing her to Chicken and Rice, she immediately took to it and her health improved significantly. I'm sure the Hills Science Lamb and Rice for puppies is a good food for mast puppies but this puppy was sick when we got her and she truly has a sensitive tummy. I might try to introduce her to this again in a month or two.

This is probably a really good food but my puppy didn't like it - at all. Transitioned and once complete, she would mostly walk away and when she did eat, it gave her horrible gas. Still have 3/4 of the bag but on to another choice.

Healthiest Choice

My dog was originally on Purina, but I switched her over to Hill Science because it has better benefits for my Dog.

Will love Hill’s Science Diet! We started a few years back with our Boston Terrier. She was having a lot of issues (itchy, vomiting, gas) so we tried a lot of different foods, some that alleviated one or two symptoms but not all, until we tried Hill’s! Hill’s formula for sensitive tummies was our savior, our sweet girl is living her best itchy-free, meals staying in her tummy, and much less smelly life! So naturally when we added another baby to the pack, we started her on Hill’s puppy formula and she loves it!

Prompt delivery.

She likes the food, but prefers it softened with water for a bit. Her puppy teeth are so little!

Old Standby

We’ve owned many dogs who lived a long life and all ate Science Diet. Lamb meal and rice seems the easiest for them to digest.

Very convenient.

I like autoship. Changing an order could be a little easier. It can get confusing.
