Consult Veterinarian:

Before transitioning your senior dog to Hill's Science Diet Adult 7+, consult with your veterinarian for personalized feeding recommendations based on your dog's breed, weight, and health needs.

Gradual Transition:

When introducing Hill's Science Diet, do so gradually over 7 days. Mix increasing amounts of this food with your dog's current food to prevent digestive upset and ensure a smooth transition.

Daily Feeding Amount:

Refer to the packaging for the recommended daily feeding amounts based on your dog's weight. Adjust the quantity according to your dog's size, age, activity level, and overall health.

Divide Meals:

Divide the daily feeding amount into multiple meals. Small and mini senior dogs may benefit from smaller, more frequent meals to support digestion and energy levels.

Provide access to fresh, clean water at all times. Hydration is essential for your senior dog's overall health and aids in the digestion of dry dog food.

Monitor Weight and Adjust:

Regularly monitor your senior dog's weight and overall condition. Adjust the feeding amount if there are any changes in weight, activity level, or overall health. Consult with your veterinarian if you have concerns.
