Ingredient Review
Our review of Hill's Science Diet Adult Chicken& Beef Entree Canned Dog Food begins with a detailed look at the food’s ingredients.
The first ingredient is Water. Water is added to pet food as a blending agent, or as a thinning agent. It is typically found in wet or moist foods rather than in dry kibble.
The second ingredient is Chicken. Chicken is meat from the domesticated bird of the same name. In pet food, chicken is used as a primary protein source.
The third ingredient is Beef. Beef is meat from any cattle breed. In pet food, beef can be fresh, freeze-dried, dehydrated, ground, or finely processed into beef meal.
The fourth ingredient is Beef By-Products. Beef by-products are remnants of the beef butchering process – essentially, everything that’s left after standard cuts of meat have been removed. The beef by-products in pet food typically include organ meats such as liver, kidney, and heart, and other parts such as tripe, tongue, fat, skin, and bones.
The fifth ingredient is Pork Liver. Pork liver is organ meat from swine. The pork liver in pet food is a source of protein, iron, and many other nutrients.
When we analyzed the ingredients in Hill's Science Diet Adult Chicken& Beef Entree Canned Dog Food, we found that most of the protein is derived from meat based sources.

Nutritional Analysis
Your adult dog needs a balance of macro and micronutrients to thrive. A food formulated for adult maintenance or all life stages is made to meet these needs. While there can be a lot of variation in actual calorie density, adult dog foods are generally intended to provide for basic calorie needs of the average active dog. In addition to satisfying their energy needs, these foods provide the protein, fat, carbohydrates, fiber, and other nutrients your adult dog needs to survive. Again, not all adult foods are the same, so you may have to search around for the right fit for your dog.
