We Care

We’re proud to be feeding these incredible dogs who often work in extreme conditions and need the best food to help keep them in peak physical condition.

A typical day in the life of a tracking dog might involve daily patrols, jumping in and out of helicopters, working in the field tracking wounded animals, poachers and ammunition or on patrol at the entrance gates.

Meet Killer, a Belgian Malinios, who has the highest success rate in tracking poachers. His work has contributed to the capture and arrest of over 115 would-be rhino poachers in the Kruger National Park. Killer’s reputation has earned him some prestigious awards handed over by Ricky Gervais and Prince Harry!

If you are lucky enough to spend time on Table Mountain, you may meet the four legged members of the Visitors Safety Unit. There are currently 13 German Shepherds working around the clock on crime prevention, search and rescue.

These highly trained dogs are fed Science Plan Performance to keep them in optimum shape. Panting, excitement, stress, tracking and covering huge distances, burns up huge amounts of calories so the dogs need a highly nutritious, digestible food that gives them maximum energy without bulk.

Together with their highly qualified ranger handlers, the dogs are having a significant impact, with a marked increase in the number of arrests.

For 12 years we’ve proudly sponsored the KZN Township Dog Show.This event helps raise awareness in the community around pet care. People from nearby underprivileged communities are invited to bring their dogs to participate in this dog show with a difference.

All entrants attend an on-site veterinary clinic where the dogs are dewormed, dipped and vaccinated before entering the show ring. They also get given basic care education, a dog collar, bowl and bag of Hill’s pet food to take home.

We’re inspired by the improving conditions this initiative has driven.
