Review: The best for my dog! - I had tried 2 other big name brands of puppy food for my chihuahua but she hardly would eat until I bought this food. She loves the taste and the extra small kibble makes it much easier for her to chew. She’s eating well now and full of energy! It’s a bit more expensive than the brands found in big box stores but it’s worth the money. I highly recommend this puppy food!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What is science-led nutrition?**
A: Nutrition inspired by science — not trends — creates differences you can see, feel and trust. Our food scientists understand the combinations of nutrients and ingredients to help support lifelong health.

**Q: How much should I feed my pet?**
A: Most Science Diet foods have a feeding guide on the package to help you determine the proper amount for your pet. It's critical to your pet's health that his or her physical condition be monitored regularly and the feeding amount adjusted as needed.

**Q: How can I tell if an unopened can or bag of cat or dog food is still good?**
A: The datecode on our plastic bags is located on the left gusset, near the 4 or 5-digit SKU number, toward the bottom of the bag. The datecode on our medium and large bags will be located on the top of the bag, generally the front flap.

**Q: How should I store my cat or dog’s dry food?**
A: Bags of dry Science Diet, Healthy Advantage and Prescription Diet cat or dog food should be stored in a cool, dry environment under 100°F (38°C).
