These guidelines are recommendations only, and should be adjusted based upon your dog's health, body condition, life stage, sex, activity and climatic temperature.
Gradually transition by adding a small amount of American Journey to your dog's current diet, reducing the amount of the current diet and increasing the amount of American Journey for 7-10 days until the transition is complete. For sensitive dogs, we recommend a 10 - 14 day transition.
American Journey is currently available at Chewy.com and PetSmart. American Journey Active Life recipes are manufactured in California following strict quality standards and FDA regulations.
What is Active Life?
The American Journey Active Life Formula is a well-rounded, balanced diet crafted with real, deboned animal protein as the first ingredient plus nutrient-rich vegetables like sweet potatoes and carrots. Every bite delivers a precise blend of nutrients and antioxidants to support a healthy immune system and overall well-being, and balanced omegas to support a healthy skin and coat. There’s also natural fiber from wholesome, easy-to-digest grains like brown rice and barley. Plus, there is never any wheat, corn, soy or artificial ingredients.
American Journey formulas have always provided complete and balanced nutrition to help support your dog’s health and wellbeing. We updated the packaging to highlight the benefits of the formula and to provide emphasis on what makes our products special and a great option for your dog.
What are the benefits of having as chicken as the first ingredient?
Chicken is an excellent source of protein and essential amino acids to support healthy muscles. Chicken along with the other ingredients in this diet provides complete and balanced nutrition for your dog’s active life.
Once opened, dry dog food typically lasts 6-8 weeks. For extended freshness, you can place the dry food in an airtight storage container.
The American Journey Puppy Formulas feature a smaller kibble size and is formulated to meet the specific nutritional requirements for growing puppies. Including DHA to support normal brain development, quality protein to support the development of lean muscles, and calcium and phosphorus to support healthy bones.
This formula is recommended for use with puppies ranging from 6 weeks old to 12 months of age. It is suitable for any breed size.
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. However, if you plan on transitioning to a new American Journey kibble flavor, we still recommend mixing the food gradually for 7-10 days until the transition is complete. For sensitive dogs, we recommend a 10-14-day transition.
American Journey sources from reputable suppliers in the US and worldwide, dependent upon availability. For example, the chicken, beef, and turkey proteins are sourced from the USA, the lamb comes from New Zealand and Australia and the salmon is sourced from the Americas.
Does this diet provide all the essential vitamins and minerals?
All American Journey Active Life Formulas provide precise levels of vitamins, minerals and other trace nutrients to support a healthy active life.
Does this diet provide antioxidants?
Yes, all American Journey Active Life Formulas provide antioxidants such as Vitamin E and Selenium to support a healthy immune system and overall wellbeing.

We have two basset puppies who are loving the Journey puppy food. They have grown a lot and are very happy.
We added a new puppy to our pack (Cheddar). Prior to us, Cheddar was eating Iam’s Puppy and his poops were consistently diarrhea. We switched him to this 2 days after bringing him home and his stomach is SO MUCH BETTER. A) he loves the food. B) massive improvement in poops. Our grown girls have been on AJ foods for years and we’ve never had problems with health. Very excited for this little guys life.
Our newest addition to our fur family loves it. We use it as reward treats also. He growing fast and getting big. He really enjoys this food.
This is dog the food I will stick to from now on! I have researched over the years, as a dog breeder for 7 of those years, and now as the 'mother' of 2 Brussels Griffons, for the very best affordable dog food. This food not only compares to but is BETTER than the most high priced foods out there! The puppy size kibbles are smaller than the adult dog size kibbles. That is VERY NICE for small breeds! The nutritional value of this food is most definitely superior to others. With a high quality food you do not have to transition your dog over slowly. You only need to do that if you are going to a low quality food. I am 100% delighted with this American Journey Puppy Active Life Chicken and Rice!
Our puppy seems to love the flavor and is doing well on it.
My puppy loves this product also. Chewy always has great products, and I will not buy my dog or cat products from anywhere else. When my older dog (BOOO) passed away I spoke with a Michael, he was so kind and not only did I get a refund on my products, due to the fact I ha
