Hill's Science Diet Adult Small and Mini Dog Food 4.5 lb

Overview

Small and mini breed dogs get their own formula here: Hill's Science Diet's chicken and brown rice recipe for adults 1 to 6 years old, sold in a 4.5 lb bag sized for smaller feeding amounts.

This is Hill's everyday maintenance formula for small dogs rather than a specialty or prescription diet, built around a chicken meat base with brown rice as the carbohydrate. It is positioned as low calorie and additive free, with no synthetic colors, aimed at weight management for smaller, less active adult dogs. The 4.5 lb size suits smaller dogs' slower consumption rate better than a large bag.

Pros and cons

Performance notes

The kibble is sized and shaped for small mouths, and the low calorie formulation is meant to support a healthy weight in dogs that are naturally less active per pound than large breeds. Chicken serves as the primary allergen listed, so dogs with poultry sensitivities should avoid it.
