Sensitive Skin My dog has always had issues with her skin and was constantly scratching herself. Nothing seemed to help until we switched to this food. She is so much happier now that she doesn't have to stop and scratch all the time. May 21, 2013
This product works wonderful for my dogs I'm worried with all the changes with all the other foods. Please don't change any ingerdents. My dogs can have Dried Beet pulp and the vegetables. So having a hard time find food that they can eat. I see so many other people in my shoes. I just wanted you to know. I know that you are trying to make the food more heathly but you need to keep some that does not have the vegetables and the Dried Beet Pulp in it. February 7, 2013
Product has helped my dog's skin condition 2 years ago my dog started experiencing a skin condition. Medication would help temporarily but the condition would soon return. While getting a second option from another vet, they suggested Science Diet Sensitive Skin. Almost immediately, we noticed an improvement. After a full year, our dog has been completely off the medication hasn't had one episode of the skin reaction that he was experiencing. We also changed all of his treats to your brand as well. It made us start paying attention to the ingredients of various dog food products that were on the market. I cannot believe what some of the "very well-known" brand name competitors will put in their food. Thank you for taking our pet's health seriously and improving his quality of life. January 27, 2013
Favorite dry food This is the only dry food our Shih Tzu will eat. She loves it and it really helps her sensitive skin. I feel good about giving her a high quality food that she enjoys. August 21, 2012
Best dog food ever My dog has always had stomach issues and I had tried many different brands of foods. I read other peoples reviews on this dog food, tried it and I have not had any problems with my dog since. I would never buy anything else.Thank you Hills for making a quality dog food that I can depend on! August 14, 2012
adult sensitive skin a few years ago my cat was itchy all over and was switched to this food...she was itch free after a few days July 1, 2012
My picky dogs love this I have two young dogs that tend to be very picky about what I feed them. One has skin related issues that the vet has told me are food related, the other does not. Both will tend to eat only as much as they need to when they get very hungry, not matter what I put down. This is the first food that they both eat and actually want more. In the past, they drink lots of water and then eat, now they eat first, want more and drink second. As soon as I bring out the bin with the food, these two dogs start bouncing around the kitchen in anticipation. They both weigh 40+ pounds, and believe me when I say, that is a lot of dog jumping around the kitchen! June 15, 2012
It works! I've been buying Science Diet for my dog since we got him and the vet recommended it and I have no complaints. About a month ago I noticed our pup started scratching a lot and his skin looked dry and flaky. We got him special shampoo which worked for a few days but then he started itching again. So we decided to try the Science Diet Sensitive skin dog food, even though it's a little more expensive than the regular stuff. Since about a week into the food my dogs skin looks much better (no more red irritated spots or dander) and he is not scratching!!! This stuff really works! May 28, 2012
