I raise working Australian Shepherds on my small farm in the finger lakes region of NY. My chore dogs are active a large portion of the day helping moving livestock. I have been choice feeding Black Gold varieties for over 15yrs. They do well on Black Gold.
My two dogs become easily bored with food... I usually have to change it up every time I buy a new bag. With this brand, I buy two bags at a time, the Timber Ridge and Game Bird, and then alternate each meal. They love both flavors and I'm getting ready to buy this brand for the third time. Also, no allergy issues at all due to it being grain-free. Very happy with these!
The dogs love their food again, I wish it only had grain. My Doberman has to have grain in his breed.
So far after 2 weeks my English bulldog isn’t having any allergy reactions. Which saves me quite a lot on prescriptions for allergies. And my dogs all love this food. I give it a 5 star.
Luna really likes this dog food ! We had good luck with the same brand, different dog food, until we got some stale bags . Not sure what happened there . And we really appreciate the refund we got for the bad bags . I think we will stick with the new dog food, unless something changes with it ! He eats it like it's a treat, but doesn't over eat .
