Hill's Science Diet

Adult 6+ Large Breed Chicken Meal, Barley & Rice Recipe Dog Food

DogDry

Chicken meal leads this dry food for large-breed dogs 6 and older, and grains fill the next six spots, from cracked pearled barley to whole grain oats. Protein is 18.7% in Hill's dry-matter figures, which already leave out the water, and a cup is 352 calories. Hill's cites AAFCO feeding tests for adult maintenance.

Nutrition

Labels print these numbers with the water still in, which makes a can look weak next to a bag. The dry-matter column takes the water out, so the two compare fairly.

Manufacturer values as published by the maker. The maker publishes dry-matter values; no conversion was needed. Carbohydrate is not estimated because protein, fat, fiber or moisture is not published.

Where to buy

Store links go to each retailer’s own product page. PawFYI isn’t paid for them, and a store never changes the numbers. If that changes, anything paid will be labeled “Sponsored”. How we make money
