Not for my dogs!
By Wyldangel316 on Jan 23, 2019
I used this brand many years ago and thought I'd try it again. Opened the bag and got a heavy chemical smell. Opened the other bag and the same thing. My mastiff and dane/pyrenees didnt want anything to do with it. Dumped both 34 lbs. bags in the woods. As of a few days ago it's still there. Went back to Diamond Naturals from the feed store. Very disappointed with Authority.

My two mastiffs love this food.
By Kodak on Feb 4, 2019
We have tried many different foods and with our two Mastiff Boys it's been a challenge. From gut problems to just not liking the taste and refusing to eat. Authority lamb and rice is a big hit for our big boys!! I highly recommend this food.
