They love it
By Mary on May 17, 2020
The dogs love their food again, I wish it only had grain. My Doberman has to have grain in his breed.

No more allergies
By Suzi on Jan 18, 2020
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.

Very good dog food !
By Looneytoons on Sep 3, 2019
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 .

Excellent Dog Food
By Minka on Aug 19, 2019
My 3 1/2 year old pup has been eating Black & Gold all her life. She loves it and I am always hearing people say how soft she is after they pet her. Chewy.com is the best place to get this food as well.

Never buying Black Gold again!
By John on Dec 30, 2018
I have two dogs and thought that buying this expensive food would be better for them. I was wrong, they don't like the flavor and do not like the food. I will never buy this brand again !

Great for my dogs!
By Britt on Apr 20, 2018
First off my dogs loveeeee this food. They were so excited when I even opened their first bag. I did my research and I was looking for a good brand that has never had a recall and this was on the list. Not only do my dogs seem healthier and leaner. My large dog that has a lot of skin issues her skin is becoming softer and more manageable. Don’t know if it’s the change of diet or what but I believe they co relate. Amazing I emailed the customer service about some questions I was answered in a day and they were super nice. Great brand I recommend to anyone!
