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.

After researching, I picked American Journey because chicken - not chicken meal - is the first ingredient. I was specifically looking cor support for a senior dog. My 12 year old lab loves it, and it has kept him healthy and active. He also has had no skin or ear infections. Love that this food has kept him healthy!
I tried this van product for my senior rescues thinking that it had a lot of benefits for the seniors I have. I used it for a month but two of my senior started itching, their coat was full and they were shedding profusely. I have had both rescues for years and the shedding had never happened like that before. Clumps of hair would fall out. I put them back on their old food, Purina Pro Plan. I didn’t even slowly introduce it to them by mixing the good for a week, I just abruptly started and within the first week, itching stopped, the shedding slowed down and coats started to get their shine back. I do not recommend this food at all.
My seniors who are picky eaters, well 1 is. They seem to enjoy this with no upset tummy or digestion issues. They also do not seem to eat as much but are satisfied.
I will let you know once I open the bag, we are still working on a previously purchased dry food.
Very happy with my new food..I Love it and I'm finally satisfied
My dog likes this dog food. I feel good feeding it to him. I've been using it for years now and he is healthy.
This is the first time I have tried the chewy brand of dog food and my dog is loving it. Thank you
My vet recommend getting food with 20% or less protein for my senior pup, because kidney #s a little high. This was the lowest I could find with American Journey, which my pups enjoy. They enjoy this one more than the train free.
Dogs like the food but another bag showed up with a large cut in the side so I am worried it my have been contaminated and stale
My dog likes this when I first open it. By the time it gets about half gone, he will not eat it unless he is extremely hungry. I do close the bag up every time and put a clip on it but it apparently still gets stale. I wish they sold it in a smaller size bag and with a reclosable top. Since they do not, I am switching brands.
