Overview
Chicken-flavored dry food from Hill's Science Diet formulated for adult dogs (1-6 years) with sensitive stomach and skin, in small bite kibble and a 4 lb bag. Barley is listed among the special ingredients.

- Formulated for adult dogs 1-6 years
- Sensitive stomach and skin support
Who it's for
Adult dogs, particularly small to medium breeds, with a history of stomach upset or skin irritation. Not intended for puppies or dogs outside the 1-6 year adult range Hill's specifies.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Small bite kibble suits smaller mouths
- Formulated specifically for stomach and skin sensitivity
- Backed by a money-back satisfaction guarantee
- 4 lb bag is small and needs frequent reordering for regular feeding
- Chicken-based, so unsuitable for chicken-allergic dogs
Performance notes
The small bite format is built around easier chewing, and barley appears alongside chicken as a listed ingredient for the sensitive-stomach positioning. Hill's backs the bag with a satisfaction guarantee.
