Hill's Science Diet Puppy Large Breed Lamb Meal & Brown Rice Recipe is a dry kibble recipe from Hill's Science Diet. The manufacturer lists ingredients by pre cooking weight, and the first five on this recipe's label are Lamb Meal, Brown Rice, Cracked Pearled Barley, Whole Grain Oats and Chicken Fat. Hill's formulates this recipe for large breed puppies, over 55 lb when adult, up to 18 months old, sizing the kibble and the mineral levels for large and giant breed dogs rather than scaling down a small breed formula. The bag comes in 30 lb on the manufacturer's own site. These ingredients must meet Hill's strict requirements for purity and nutrient content, which the manufacturer states exceed industry standards. Hill's states the food is made in the USA with ingredients sourced globally. 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.
