Frequently asked questions
Who makes Hill's Prescription Diet pet food?
Hill's Prescription Diet is manufactured by Hill's Pet Nutrition (Colgate-Palmolive).
Where is Hill's Prescription Diet made?
Hill's Prescription Diet pet food is made in US.
When was Hill's Prescription Diet founded?
Hill's Prescription Diet was founded in 1939.
Is Hill's Prescription Diet WSAVA-aligned?
Yes. Hill's Prescription Diet meets the World Small Animal Veterinary Association's manufacturer-vetting guidelines (on-staff veterinary nutritionists, AAFCO feeding trials, and published research).
Has Hill's Prescription Diet ever been recalled?
No Hill's Prescription Diet products match any FDA recall in our tracked feed. Two caveats worth stating plainly: our feed covers FDA recall notices from late 2025 onward, so a recall older than that would not appear here; and brand matching is deliberately conservative, so a recall naming a parent company or a co-manufacturer rather than Hill's Prescription Diet itself may not be linked. For a definitive answer, check the FDA's own recall database.
How does Hill's Prescription Diet score in our analysis?
Hill's Prescription Diet averages 84/100 across 212 products in our catalog. Individual product scores combine ingredient quality, AAFCO compliance, and controversial-additive severity. See the methodology page for the full algorithm.
