About 52% of sales are in the US, so a little under half in other countries. They have grown from selling in 16 countries in 1987 to 86 countries in 2007.

This info from their 10k corporate earnings report indicates countries where they saw the largest growth:

Net sales for Hill’s Pet Nutrition increased 11.5% in 2007 to $1,859.1 on volume gains of 3.5%, an increase in net selling prices of 5.5%
and 2.5% positive impact of foreign exchange. Sales growth within the U.S. specialty pet channel was driven by Science Diet Adult Large
Breed Canine, Science Diet Lamb Meal & Rice Adult Small Bites Canine and Science Diet Nature’s Best Canine with upgraded all natural
ingredients. Science Diet Indoor Cat and Science Diet Light contributed to growth in feline products. Prescription Diet c/d Multicare Feline,
Prescription Diet j/d Canine and new Prescription Diet Hypoallergenic Treats for dogs and cats contributed to growth in the U.S. veterinary
channel. Internationally, growth was led by South Africa, the Nordic region, Australia, Spain and Russia.
