Can I mix Hill's Science Diet dry and wet food for sensitive stomachs?

Updated On September 23rd, 2025

Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Medium (23 - 60lb) | Female | 2 years and 3 months old | 55 lbs

My dog is usually on science diet for sensitive stomachs and skin and did very well on it. We switched due to the other dogs in the house not doing too well on that food and now she’s having problems. After completely transitioning back to hills, is it okay to switch between science diet for sensitive stomachs and skin dry food and canned food since it’s the same specific food or do I need to stick with one or the other?

Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Yes, using the dry and canned Hill's Science diet for sensitive stomach and skin is fine. Some animals though do not tolerate canned food as well as they do dry. I wish you the best!
