I was excited to put my dog on this brand of food because of the quality and good reviews of this brand but unfortunately, it did not work out. This is the only new food that I introduced my dog to and he was having diarrhea. I really wish it will work out but not for my dog. I may give this brand a try again but a different protein based. also wish chewy would have some sample of dog food so that way we don’t buy the big bag. Hopefully in the future.

My big guy is not a picky eater by any means, but we found out he has a chicken allergy and have been experimenting with brand options for kibble bases. This did great and he seemed super eager to lick the bowl clean!

We rotate between foods a lot for my dog's so we always look for quality ingredients with good sourcing. I wanted to try this and we have been loving it! We have a sport dog so getting all of the proper diet she needs is super important. We will not feed this long term but it will be in our rotation!

I was hopeful about trying this food because the ingredients and brand reputation are great. Unfortunately, my dog had a bad reaction including nausea, diarrhea, and stomach discomfort shortly after starting it. It may just not agree with his system as every dog is different. That said, the kibble looked fresh and high quality and I appreciate that it's made with wholesome ingredients. This might work well for other dogs just not for mine.

Causes diarrhea

Gave my dog diarrhea, even from just a few pieces. I tried it mixed with her regular chicken Acana food three separate times and it happened every time!

Great Ingredients, but..

I was glad to have found a dog food that had grains but didn’t have chicken. It’s hard to find dog food that is chicken free but not grain free. Our dog scarfed

I was glad to have found a dog food that had grains but didn’t have chicken. It’s hard to find dog food that is chicken free but not grain free. Our dog scarfed it down while it was mixed with her old food but when we had fully transitioned to this food she started having days where she refused to eat. Let me clarify: She refused to eat her meals. She still begged for treats and our food and ate her treats if offered. If given beef broth and brown rice she scarfed that down like she was starving. Talking to the vet it seems this food has given the poor girl heartburn. I’m back on the search for another dog food that’s chicken free but includes grains and now won’t give her heartburn.
