Absolutely Disgusting Experience
We purchased a bag of Hill's Science Diet Adult Perfect Weight Management Small Breed & Mini Breed Chicken Recipe Dry Dog Food and were absolutely horrified to discover feces inside the bag. Yes, feces.
When we reached out to Hill’s, their response was beyond dismissive. Instead of taking ownership of an obvious contamination and health hazard, they brushed it off as “a clump of crumbs coated with fat.” Seriously? We know what feces looks like, and this was not some innocent kibble dust ball.
To make matters worse, rather than apologizing or showing genuine concern, they buried us in a ridiculous laundry list of questions - batch codes, storage details, feeding routines, number of people feeding our dog, etc. - as if they were trying to push the blame back on us. The product was contaminated so of course we immediately threw the entire bag away. And yet, somehow, we’re the ones expected to jump through hoops just to get a basic acknowledgment of their failure.
This isn’t just poor customer service; it’s gross negligence. Hill’s showed us they care more about covering themselves than about animal safety or customer trust. After this disgusting experience and their dismissive handling of it, we will NEVER purchase another Hill’s product again - and I strongly urge every pet owner who values their pet’s health to look elsewhere.
