Hill's Pet Nutrition
   

Baker University and Hill's Pet Nutrition have developed a unique partnership that allows you to earn college credit for your Hill's Pet Nutrition courses!

Founded in 1858, Baker University is the oldest university in Kansas. We offer innovative adult degree programs in evening and weekend classroom settings as well as online. Baker University is regionally accredited by the Higher Learning Commission of the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools. Our accreditation has been continuous since first awarded in 1913.

The Hill's® pet food lines began in 1939. Dr. Mark L. Morris Sr. believed certain diseases in pets could be managed through carefully formulated nutrition. His ideas were visionary in veterinary medicine, and he soon had the chance to prove his theory.

A young blind man named Morris Frank asked Dr. Morris if anything could be done to save his guide dog, Buddy, who was suffering from kidney failure. The result of Dr. Morris' efforts was the nutritional formulation that became the first product in the Hill's Prescription Diet line of therapeutic pet foods, and the world's first pet food designed to help dogs with kidney disease. Soon after, Hill's Pet Nutrition was founded and the field of clinical nutrition sprang to life. That first therapeutic dog food evolved into Hill's® Prescription Diet® k/d®, which is still sold today.
