Can I switch between the American Journey Active Life Recipes?
American Journey Active Life Formulas are designed that that you can change up the flavor between Beef, Chicken, Salmon and Lamb depending on the preference of your dog.

For sensitive dogs, we recommend a 10-14-day transition.

Easy on Sensitive Stomach
By FoodReview on Oct 25, 2021
We have an Australian Shepherd who has a sensitive stomach. After inspecting the ingredients & content %’s, we switched him from Nutro Ultra to this food. His stool showed improvement after 3 days - 18 months later his stool, skin, & coat are all fantastic! Keep up the quality work American Journey!

Good, but. . .
By AOK1 on Nov 27, 2021
Amazing shipping. Package came the next day. Glad the formula was available. It's sometimes difficult to find lamb as the main protein. Found some clumping and some mold in the kibble.

MISS VICKY
By JANIE on Aug 12, 2021
I WAS PLEASANTLY SURPRISED, WHEN I SWITCHED FROM CHICKEN TO LAMB FLAVOR BECAUSE VICK LIKED IT SO WELL. SHE HAS HAD AMERICAN JOURNEY (CHICKEN FLAVOR) SINCE SHE WAS A PUPPY. DURING THE PANDEMIC SHE HAD A REGULAR CHECKUP AT HER VET, AFTER WEIGH IN THE VET LOOKED SURPRISED AND ASKED, WHAT ARE YOU FEEDING HER? SHE WENT ON TO SAY THAT VICK IS THE FIRST DOG THAT DIDNT GET FAT AND LAZY.

Switched from Natures Recipe
By Brian on Aug 20, 2021
Natures Recipe changed there formula & pricing so I started to look for other options. This food has been fantastic! Both dogs like it, their poops are healthy, and no allergy issues. The ingredient list is solid, most foods cost more that look like this. This will be our new food from here on out!

Happy pup!
By Christy on Sep 21, 2021
My dog previously never came running at mealtime. He loves this food! Easily digestible and no issues. He seems to really like it without me having to mix in other things to entice him.

Recommend for picky eaters
By Croissant on Jun 25, 2021
I used to feed my dog the Nutro lamb and rice recipe but he refused to eat it when they changed the recipe. I went through 5 different lamb and rice recipes before I found this one and he LOVES it. This brand has never had any recalls that I could find and it arrived the very next day.

Dogs won't eat it
By Nicole on Aug 5, 2021
Both of my Labradoodles hated this food! They refused to eat it. Total waste of money. Gave both bags away for free to someone who needed dog food.

Excellent food/ our dogs LOVE IT!

We had our Boxers on Iams for several years. It was getting difficult to find and after reading the ingredients on Iams and American Journey we knew for our dogs nutritional health we needed to switch. We did the partial Iams and small parts AJ to start , as we added more AJ they began leaving the Iams in their bowels so we switched them over to American Journey 100% including limited ingredient canned food mixed in for extra meat and moisture for their skin and fur.

Best thing about AJ is that my three different life stage dogs can all eat the same food, HUGE money saver!! Also my mother’s Maltese had been on a no eating binge since my father passed away suddenly we tried everything and then I gave him some AJ All life stages and he couldn’t eat it fast enough!! Happy to say he is still eating the kibble and this makes my mom and us very happy! Thank you Chewy for making a superior product. … more
