Hills Pet Nutrition
They don't come much bigger than Hills Pet Nutrition, who have a presence worldwide and have been at the forefont of veterinary prescription diets for many years. The company was started by veterinary surgeon Dr Mark Morris.
According to the Hills website Dr. Mark Morris was an exceptional vet. He believed that we should take pet healthcare as seriously as our own. That's why he opened the very first vet clinic for family pets. Before then, vets had mostly treated large farm animals and working horses and dogs.
Mark Morris saw the link between poor nutrition and illness in pets, so he developed a pet food that was superior to any other on the market. The company started small, with Mark and his wife making the food themselves for their patients.
The turning point for Dr.Morris came when he met a blind man called Morris Frank. Frank's much-loved guide dog, Buddy was suffering from kidney disease and he asked Dr. Morris if he could help him.
Dr Morris knew that because many of the commercial pet foods available at the time were high in phosporus and protein to make them taste better, feeding them could harm the kidneys. So, he set about developing a food that was low in salt yet high in flavour and nutritional value.
This food became Hill's Prescription Diet k/d™, which went on to become the first commercially available Hill's pet food.
The Hills Science Diet has been available in pet shops for some time as their consumer range, but lately Hills have begun to follow the trend into more 'natural' branded foods, and their 'Nature's Best' is the result. It had a rocky start a few years ago, but now they seem to be marketing it a little better.
Looking at the ingredients, it's a perfectly acceptable high quality premium food, with natural preservatives
