Why we score Hill's Science Diet Adult Perfect Weight Chicken & Brown Rice Recipe Dry Dog Food 5.44kg 7.0/10
Perfect Weight is built for adult dogs carrying a little extra condition, and it is one of Hill's most clearly differentiated recipes: high protein and high fibre with added L-carnitine and coconut oil to support metabolism, plus glucosamine and chondroitin for joints. Hill's cites that over 70% of dogs lost weight within ten weeks on this nutrition, and the chicken-first ingredient deck keeps the protein quality up while calories come down. The 5.44kg bag is the practical mid-size for a single medium dog on a managed-weight plan. As with the rest of the line it is grain-inclusive, and the targeted formulation sits at a slightly higher price per kilo than the standard adult recipe.
Best for: Adult dogs that need to trim down or hold a healthy weight without losing muscle.
What we like
- Chicken-first recipe with research-backed weight-loss results

- Mid-size 5.44kg bag suits a single dog on a weight plan
Worth knowing
- Costs a little more per kilo than the standard adult recipe
