How much should I feed my pet?
Just like people, eating amounts vary from pet to pet. Most Hill's pet foods have a feeding guide on the package to help you determine the proper amount to feed your pet. Please keep in mind that the feeding guide is intended only as a starting point, and you should follow your veterinarian’s recommendation based on your pet's specific health needs.

FEEDING AND TREATS
-
My pet is a fussy eater, how can I successfully switch their pet food?
In this situation, we suggest following one or more of the tips below to encourage your pet to eat.
If you are starting to feed your pet a new food, a gradual transition from the current food to a new food helps wean your pet from one food to another.
For dogs, allow 10-20 minutes for your dog to eat, then remove the remaining food and wait to feed your dog until his next meal.
If you are feeding dry pet food, try hand-feeding the kibble from your hand in small portions for the first few feedings, like a treat.
Here are some additional resources that can help you successfully switch your pet’s food:

What is the best way to give my pet a treat?
-
Should I feed my pet people food or table scraps?
We do not recommend feeding people food or table scraps. Veterinarians strongly believe that feeding pets table scraps or "people" food can lead to excesses or deficiencies of nutrients in your pet's nutrition which over time may lead to health problems for your pet (like obesity). Feeding table scraps or “people” food can also result in a more finicky pet.
There are several ways you find our products, Hill's Science Diet & Hill's Prescription Diet are available through online retailers, or you can visit your local vet or pet store.
