Hill's sells h/d Chicken Flavor as part of its Prescription Diet line, a therapeutic tier available through veterinarians rather than on the open shelf. Hill's describes it as "complete and balanced clinical nutrition specially formulated to support your dog's heart health." It is a dry kibble formulated for adult dogs, and the first five ingredients on the label are Whole Grain Wheat, Whole Grain Corn, Chicken Fat, Chicken By-Product Meal, and Cracked Pearled Barley. Hill's lists ingredients by pre-cooking weight, so the order shows what goes into the recipe before processing, not the finished proportions. It comes in 17.6 lb. Hill's product page states: "Please consult your veterinarian for further information on how our Prescription Diet foods can help your dog." Whatever food ends up in the bowl, a single ingredient freeze dried topper is a way to add interest without changing the diet, which is what Sniff and Shift makes in Malvern, Pennsylvania. Ask your veterinarian before feeding any therapeutic diet.
