Our take on Hill's
Written by us, from the labels. Never written, reviewed or paid for by the brand.
Hill's is the other name your vet says out loud, and like Royal Canin it scores in a way that surprises people. Across the 141 foods we have rated it averages 30/100 (Poor), ranking 274 of 304.
Nearly half the Hill's range we track is prescription, and that matters for how you read this page. A Prescription Diet opening "Meat and Animal Derivatives, Derivatives of Vegetable Origin, Cereals, Vegetable Protein Extracts" is written to a clinical spec, and those category terms exist so the manufacturer can hold a nutrient profile steady while the actual meat changes with supply. That is a real reason. It is also completely opaque to you, and our score reflects what you can verify rather than what you are asked to trust.
The Science Plan side is fair game though. When a bag opens "Maize, Wheat, Chicken and Turkey Meal", cereal is the largest thing in it and you are paying a premium price for it. That is the gap worth knowing about: the clinical range earns its reputation, and some of that reputation gets lent to the everyday range sitting next to it on the shelf.
If your dog is on a Hill's diet because a vet put them there, stay on it and ignore the number - our score is not a second opinion on a medical decision. If you are buying Science Plan by choice, compare it with the same money spent elsewhere and see whether you still like it.
Its best here is Hill's Science Plan Puppy <1 at 65/100, with the range running 0 to 65. A score is a label reading, not a diagnosis.
