Canine and Feline Diet Brands

Choosing the right food for your furry little friend can be tricky.  Below you will find a list put together by our Doctors here at Eagle Animal Hospital that we hope will help guide you in deciding which brand to feed your dog or cat.

• Hill's Science Diet

There is no best diet, despite all the marketing claims to the contrary. Every pet is unique and the goal is to find the best diet for your individual pet. Your pet may respond better to one diet than the other. We do not recommend the "all natural", "organic", "holistic", or "grain free" diets for your pets. Many of these diets are unregulated and inconsistently produced.  These types of diets may contribute to the formation of urinary crystals which can lead to cystic calculi (bladder stones), anal gland issues, soft stools, and heart disease.
