Frequently Asked Questions
Is this a prescription or vet-only diet?
No. Hill's Science Diet is the everyday, non-prescription range and can be bought without veterinary authority. If your dog has a diagnosed gastrointestinal or skin disease, your vet may recommend a Hill's Prescription Diet formula instead.How does it support both the stomach and the skin?
The two are treated together because nutrient absorption drives coat condition. Highly digestible ingredients and prebiotic fibre support the gut and a balanced microbiome, while vitamin E plus omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids support the skin barrier and coat. Vitamins C and E add antioxidant support for immune health.Which dogs is it recommended for?
Adult dogs aged 1–6 years with sensitive digestion, occasional loose stools, sensitive skin or a dull coat. It is not suitable for puppies or for pregnant and nursing dogs, which should be fed an appropriate Hill's puppy formula.Is it grain free?
No. The recipe uses cracked pearled barley, brown rice, brewers rice and whole grain sorghum, which are included because they are highly digestible. If you need a grain-free option, see our grain-free dry dog food range.Will it help a dog with a chicken allergy?
No. Chicken is the first ingredient, along with chicken meal, chicken fat and chicken liver flavour, so it is not appropriate for a dog with a confirmed chicken allergy. A true food-allergy case needs a vet-guided elimination diet — a single-protein or hydrolysed diet is usually the starting point.How long before I see an improvement?
Stool quality often responds within one to two weeks of completing the transition, while visible coat and skin changes usually take four to eight weeks because the coat has to grow through. If digestive signs persist or worsen, see your vet rather than continuing to trial foods.How do I transition my dog onto it?
Over about seven days, mix increasing amounts of the new food with decreasing amounts of the old one. With a sensitive dog, a slower 10–14 day change is often gentler. Keep other treats and chews to a minimum during the changeover so you can judge the result.Can I mix it with wet food?
Yes. Reduce the dry portion accordingly so total daily calories stay appropriate. Browse wet dog food options if you want to add moisture or make meals more appealing.How should I store the 12kg bag?
Keep it in the original bag, rolled down and sealed, inside a cool dry place or a lidded container. The bag itself is designed to protect the fats from oxidation, so avoid tipping kibble loose into a bin.Can I get it delivered in Melbourne?
Yes. ADS Pet Store ships Australia-wide and offers local Melbourne delivery plus Click & Collect from our Moorabbin store.Shop related dog food at ADS Pet Store
