My Maltese, Griffin, has been testing the Hill’s® Science Diet® Ideal Balance™ Grain Free Dog Food in the Chicken and Potato Dinner flavor for the past month courtesy of BzzAgent. A 3.5 lb bag of dog food usually retails for $12-$14 but with a coupon voucher, provided by BzzAgent, I received a bag for free!
Prior to this BzzAgent campaign I wasn’t a particular fan of Science Diet. In my opinion, their previous formula wasn't very healthy choice for our pets; it was loaded with corn and fillers. However, after reviewing their new Grain-Free Ideal Balance dog food, I'm converted!
Hill’s® Science Diet® Ideal Balance™ Grain Free Dog Food promises to be a healthy option for dogs. It doesn't contain any corn, artificial colors or preservatives. Instead, it’s full of nutritious and wholesome ingredients such as chicken, fruits and vegetables. In fact, chicken is the main ingredient! Plus, the kibbles are small enough for the smallest of puppy mouths!
Sudden changes in dog food brands can sometimes cause stomach problems so I gradually weaned Griffin off of his old dog food by mixing the two brands at first and then slowly decreasing the old dog food amount until he was only eating the Hill’s Science. He adapted to the Science Diet dog food extremely well. He is a very picky eater, but still enjoys eating his new food even now - weeks later.
If you check out the Hill’s Science website, it has a very helpful tool that compares the nutritional value of Hill’s Science Ideal Balance against competitor brands. Right now Hill’s Science is offering a rebate on their Ideal Balance dog and cat food (up to a $12.99 value) so you can try it out for free too!
Overall, I've been very satisfied with the performance of Science Hill’s Ideal Balance Grain-Free dog food. His free bag, compliments of BzzAgent, is almost gone and I definitely plan to get him another bag. Thanks Science Diet and BzzAgent for the opportunity to try this great product!
