Substituted dog food
By Bethany on Nov 20, 2021
I love Chewy! They have great customer service and they keep you in the loop on what’s going on. For example, I normally get the American Journey senior salmon brown rice formula, and they suddenly were out. A rep contacted me to offer me a substitute and even placed the order for me once confirmed. They’re great people.

Price hike
By Nunu on Oct 26, 2021
Chewy has risen their prices little by little. I moved from pets mart because of the same reason free shipping is nice but with the price hikes free shipping isn't no longer a plus.

dog will not eat
By anon on Oct 11, 2021
I switched my dog from nutro to this and he would not eat it. End up getting stuck with this bag of food. Had to throw it out because I found mold in it. One of the reasons he would not eat it.

Good food, so-so packaging
By Bruce on Aug 21, 2021
I switched from Kroger's Abound Large Breed. The transition has been fine and my two dogs like the food. My only beef is that the 28 lb. bag has no zip-lock closure as most other brands do to keep food fresh ( Even AJ's own 5 pound cat food bag has a zip-lock top! ) I downgraded for that reason... I strongly suggest AJ improve their packaging - or I may switch back.

Awful farts
By Britt on Nov 10, 2021
Whatever is put in this to make it better and higher price for your dog literally turned my dog into Walter the farting dog.

Switched from Authority
By MeAF on Jun 9, 2021
We got the email that Authority was not being carried anymore and the American Journey was one of the recommended replacements. It has very similar ingredients and even looks a heck of a lot like the Authority flavor we were buying. We've fully switched our 2 pups over and they both approve, so guess we'll be American Journey people now.

Midnight’s Favorite

Great Food, Stinky Gas
By JC80 on Feb 3, 2021
Bought this after feeding my dog American Journey salmon dog food. This one however, has caused major smelly gas with my dog, unlike the salmon based dog food. I wont buy this one again. The salmon one caused fish breath. Back to the drawing board for a good quality food with decent grains for a decent price.

Pup doesn’t eat it at all
By azizam on Mar 4, 2021
It’s been 2 days and he refuses to take a bite, I bought because the ingredients seemed good and similar to his previous food but nope hasn’t touched it.

Dont like the package
By Jake on Feb 17, 2021
I do not like the way the food is package. Most other dry dog foods have a zip lock seal to preserve the freshness. My Dog love the food.
