Update Message to North American Consumers About Vegetable Proteins.

We understand your concern about the safety of vegetable proteins used as ingredients in pet food.

Please note that Hill’s tests the imported vegetable protein it receives for melamine. Additionally, Hill’s has eliminated wheat gluten from our product formulas and does not use vegetable protein (including rice protein concentrate) from suppliers in China.

These steps are part of our ongoing efforts to ensure the health and well-being of your pets.
