Not for my dog
By Alligator on Aug 3, 2020
After feeding this to my newfie he start chewing and licking his paw. I think it's an allergy but not sure if it's the food or something else. But it seemed like the food made it worse. Can't take that chance. I'll go back to his old food to see if that was the problem. He had been eating a beef mixture without issues.

Great Dog Food
By RuRu on Jun 23, 2020
Great dog food at an affordable price! My yellow lab suffers from food allergies and was having red swollen paws, which he licked constantly. The American Journey Salmon and Brown Rice formula has cleared up his red and irritated skin. Both my dogs love the taste of the food also, although they definitely are not picky eaters by any means. Thank you Chewy for keeping this food affordable and running specials quite often!

How to get Afghan Hounds to eat!
By marie55 on Jul 19, 2020
I recently switched to this type of American Journey from the Chicken and Brown Rice and it is a big hit. My Afghans are picky eaters and often decide they're 'done' with something they loved a week ago, but they have eaten significantly more dry food since I opened this bag and continued to enjoy it well into the 26 lb bag. Definitely a keeper in my household.

BEST CUSTOMER SERVICE EVER
By Sudeshna on Jul 16, 2020
I have ordered a lot of stuff from chewy and chewy never disappointed me. Chewy has one of the best customer services and I am never going back to buying food /toys/treats from other pet stores. I would recommend chewy to any person who owns an dog or a cat. Always on time and so helpful. And the food is amazing! Marie absolutely loves it!!

Very fine quality dog food.
By blondmedicdoglovr4 on Jun 12, 2020
They have a great dog food that I trust wholeheartedly for both my dogs. I am so glad to learn they have NEVER had any recalls like some of the so called higher brands and more expensive brands have. I am always happy to order things from Chewy as I do know I am receiving only TOP QUALITY products for my dogs and I do NOT work for them. Promise.....

good for the good pups
By Ashley on Jun 19, 2020
I have been giving my Aussie this brand since we got him and it’s amazing. This food is great but it does stink because of the salmon so be aware of that. I just make sure the bag is sealed and not open or it will make where ever the place it is store kinda fishy.

Both my girls love this food!
By Whitney on Jun 3, 2020
I’ve been feeding AJ kibble for at least a couple of years now, and my pups really like it. I rotate flavors of this formula so they don’t get bored, and the Salmon is, by far, their favorite. They have soft, shiny coats, bright eyes, and energy to burn. Love AJ products!

Great for dry skin
By Denise on Jun 13, 2020
My dogs really enjoy this food. My German shepherd has skin problems and I noticed that I his coat its looking more shinny and doesn't seem to be itching as much. I have had problems in the past trying to find a good food to help with his coat and this food is amazing
