Great company, not this product
By Bolfreak on Jan 6, 2022
I always buy this brand of food for my two large dogs and switch off the protein source every time I buy a bag. Despite this flavor being labeled as "salmon", the second ingredient is menhaden (?) fish meal. Not only does the kibble itself have a powerful fishy smell, it gives my poodle bad breath? gas? I'm not sure, but that smells powerfully fishy as well. This is a great brand I will purchase again, just never this flavor.

Dogs love it
By Lispe on Nov 10, 2021
Our dogs love this food. They wait anxiously for feeding time. They seem to especially enjoy it when we wet it down with some water. Wetting it also slows them down while eating. We have also seen an improvement in our pet's coat. Ellie used to scratch and and her coat had an odor, but after consistent use of this food, her scratching has almost disappeared.

Dogs have loved it
By Good on Jan 10, 2022
My cairn terrier has had bloating and skin sensitivity issues to different foods and my Siberian husky snubs her nose to a lot of food. This has been one they both have enjoyed and can tolerate without problems

It's a hit!
By KodiNClara on Dec 27, 2021
Kodi and Clara declared this a hit! Go ahead and get a slow feeder bowl when you order your first bag. I was happy they adjusted from the chicken to this salmon with no tummy issues.

Not the same food as the large bag!?!?
By MzGerry on Dec 1, 2021
I usually get this in the 28 lb size, but they were out. So they offered me two of the 14 lb bags instead. The food is labeled the same, but doesn't LOOK the same at all. It's lighter in color and smaller in diameter (I still had a bit of the other one and the differencewas obvious). And my Annie doesn't love it like she did the other bag. What gives, Chewy?

Healthy and Delicious I've been told!
By LabLover on Dec 27, 2021
I've been ordering this brand for my 70lb Lab for years! He devours it, so guessing it's delicious as well as healthy! Great price, great ingredients...LOVE EVERYTHING CHEWY!

Great deal!
By Melody on Nov 5, 2021
I bought this bag recently because it’s a lot cheaper than Hills Science Diet which my dog was on for 4 years. Anyway, I transitioned my girl to American Journey a few weeks back and now she’s fully on the food and she didn’t noticed. I compared both bags and they are basically the same thing but a lot cheaper. She loves it.

American Journey is a Safe Pet Food manufacturer
By gail on Jan 2, 2022
My pets have thrived on their products. I reordered this salmon and brown rice because the dogs and also the cat enjoy the dry dog food.

Doesn't seem to agree with my dogs
By cd1250 on Sep 22, 2021
I recently switched my two french bulldogs to this food after they were on a fish and rice diet from another brand. The brand kept having recalls, so thought it was best to switch. This food doesn't seem to agree with them. Bulldogs get a bad rap for being gassy but mine aren't if on the right diet. This food immediately gives them the stinkiest toots right after consumption, and their stools haven't been as normal either. I hear their girgling bellies daily. Not sure if it's the salmon. Their previous food was mehadrin fish, or if it's the chicken fat. One has a more sensitive stomach to chicken products. Unfortunately, not a fit for us.

American Journey
By Shortdonna on Oct 25, 2021
We have been feeding our dogs - 3 rescues - this meal for the past two years. Different flavors from American Journey. They love it and you can tell by the empty bowls !! We also supplement the dry food with canned American Journey along with fresh vegetables, fresh fruit, raw eggs, etc. They love it!
