American Journey Salmon & Sweet Potato Recipe Grain-Free Dry Dog Food

I have been purchasing this dog food for my grain-sensitive Golden Doodle for over a year now. It always smells fresh and my Doodle consumes it so enthusiastically, as if it’s the first time, every time! I love that it has such a short, simple list of ingredients and I have been told that it is an ethically sourced product. This makes me feel good about serving it to my dog, and his digestive health has improved tremendously. Unless something unforeseen occurs, I will never switch to another dog food and I am thankful for this healthful and affordable option provided by Chewy.

We adopted our dog Nov ‘16. She had hair loss spots all over her body from excessive licking and chewing on herself. The vet she saw while in foster care, prior to our adoption, said she was doing it due to nerves/stress/anxiety. I had a feeling it was an allergy to the food she was eating. When we adopted her, I spent a lot of time researching foods. Chicken based foods are known for high allergic reaction rates. I talked with our vet about food options. She recommended a fish / salmon based formula — no chicken!! We also boosted her immune system back up with fish oil supplements (1,000mg/ day) Needless to say, we chose American Journey Salmon recipe.

Her energy and wellbeing completely turned around. She is not gassy at all, so we know this food is doing great things for her digestion. She has a beautiful coat, which multiple strangers have commented on and have asked which food we use. Best of all, she loves this food so much, she chows this food down so fast that we had to buy her one of those special feeding bowls with ridges to help slow her down! We HIGHLY recommend!! … more

My dog has been eating American Journey all his life. Has never turned down a bowl of this stuff, I can tell he likes the “Salmon/Lamb & Sweet Potato” flavor more than the others that have Brown Rice. But he’ll eat any kind if he’s hungry. American Journey is great, has tons of nutrients and vitamins also has a lot of protein. DHA is also very important for dog food to have and AJ delivers. Great brand an’ great quality food, dog looks lean and very healthy.

My 10 yr old Aussie/Golden-Lab has congestive heart failure due to poor genetics on her father's side. American Freedom salmon is high in protein-32% and chock full of omega 3 and omega 6. I always supplement all of our animals (currently 2 dogs, 1 cat, 1 bunny, 1 horse) with about 1/8 C of olive oil added to their food. They love it and it keeps their coats shiny and losing less hair. The high protein diet is better than Hills Science, and the cost is very welcomed during these uncertain times. She loves it, and my GSD would eat it if I allowed her to, though she's got a sensitive tummy. It took forever to find the perfect food for her. I'll write about that under the Purina I bought.

American Freedom is tasty (according to Sundance), economical, grain free, extremely high in protein and omegas-it's everything rolled into a great deal. Her stool is a great consistency, not greasy or foul. The only thing that's upsetting but impossible to find a food that doesn't have, is sugar. I like having high protein, low carbs and minimal sugar, as yeast feeds on carbs and sugar in dogs' bodies. But, it's impossible to find any commercial kibble without berries, sweet potatoes, or beans. I get it, they need to make a balanced food, but a basic protein food with vitamins to sprinkle or squeeze on the kibble would truly be an amazing creation!! Who knows, maybe they'll start doing it in the future. In the meantime, if you're looking for a quality grain free, fish, high protein diet chock full of omega 3 and 6, at lower prices than brands like Merrick, Acana, Orijen, Taste of the Wild, then give American Freedom a try! Sundance gives it two paws up! … more

Our Standard Poodle has the worst IBS ever. We spent thousands of dollars at various vets and specialists trying to help him (and ourselves from having to clean up bloody diarrhea!), but nothing worked. Until I randomly decided to give this brand of food a try. It has changed our lives!!!! American Journey’s grain free foods smell like the protein they’re made from (I.e. salmon, chicken, beef, etc) and our dog devours it. The best part is his IBS has not had a flare since we started this food a year ago!!!

I opened the new bag to mix it in with the end of the old brand and there was excitement from my dog while I dispensed it. It hasa rich, dark color and smell which makes me think it has great flavor. He loved it from the beginning. It is now our new dry food. I like that it is grain free but also less expensive than many of the other brands. High nutrition and a lower price.

Our dog was 3 months old when we adopted her from the Northeast Animal Shelter. She had just arrived from Georgia...so what did she know other than she was going to her furhome. First lesson she learn to surviving in house with rabbits...was you gotta eat your vegetables. And rabbits do play just as rough as she does. Our dog does prefer the rabbits greens to her own dog food but she actually does look forward to this combination. We have tried a number of brands and mixes but the sweet potato and salmon or fish are her favorites.

Because he has a sensitive stomach, I was hesitant to switch foods, but he used to spit the other brand on the floor in distaste. Finally, I ordered American Journey. He eats his dinner, and the floor is no longer a mess. Plus, it is the perfect bite size for training. First day it arrived, he fell asleep with his nose to the bag. Thanks for making him safe & happy.

My 5 year old Boxer has been on this since he was about 1 years old and it has worked amazingly for his coat, teeth and overall health over the years. Always gets excited for meal time and it really helps with his sensitive stomach and digestion!

This was my first time ordering American Journey for my dog. Let me just say, HE LOVES IT!!. He literally brings me his bowl when he’s hungry now. I’ve had always given him Beneful salmon flavor. However, it was sold out. Don’t get me wrong, he has always ate all of food by Beneful. However, with American Journey he brings his bowl to my attention LOL. I would definitely recommend American Journey salmon flavor.
