Hill's Prescription Diet
$3.59 / 1,000 kcal
Designed for gastrointestinal tolerance with moderate fat and highly digestible ingredients. The tradeoff is a heavily refined formula with several common allergens.
Hill's Prescription Diet
$4.75 / 1,000 kcal
A solid prescription dry food on paper: feeding-trial substantiated, adult maintenance adequacy, taurine declared. Like most vet diets, the weakest dimension is price rather than basic nutrition.
