CANIDAE All Life Stages Chicken, Lamb & Fish Formula Canned Dog Food, 13-oz, case of 12

Received 2 flats of Canidae canned food. Both came well packaged and the 1/4 box that was used to protect the tops of the flats was uncrushed/undamaged. One of the flats though, did have crushed cans - this was an intentional move on someone's part to put that flat in a consumers package. It was very obvious that the cans had to have been crushed at the time of putting the order together for shipping. I may not have a choice other than to order from Chewy until my local pet center is able to get this brand back in stock, however, I wouldn't willingly order from Chewy if I had a choice.

I would normally give this a 5-star review and this is the first review I've done here, but what happened to the consistency/texture of this food? My last order of several cases is way different than before. The food is either mushy or runny. I am hoping this was just a bad batch, or I will have to find another brand.

my dog has been diagnosed with valley fever i have tried feeding him so many brands and he has turned his nose up at them. i finally tried Canidae all life stages multi protein and he started eating little bit of it. i feed him every 2 hours now and he is up to almost 2 cans a day. i am happy as he is getting protein in him. It is a slow process but i think with the help of this food he is getting better.

I also have a picky dog that loves this food. Of course he will only eat it with both kibble and can food together.

I have a dog who lost a lot of teeth from breaking out of cage. And she's also very picky. But she loves this food!!

I’m confused by some of the one star reviews. In particular, somebody refers to this food as legume based - I don’t see legumes mentioned anywhere in the ingredients. Can I assume that this is just a bogus review by a competitor? Dog Food Advisor gives it a 4.5 star rating in terms of ingredients. Comments are certainly welcomed - thanks in advance.

This food makes my little chihuahua cough and gag violently after eating. I touched the little left over morsels of food from his bowl and realized the food consistency is like sand. It feels like touching sand between my fingers. My dog only eats wet food, no kibble. I would cough and gag too if I am slurping a bowl of sand for my meal.

My 5 year old black Lab mix, Bean, has been sensitive to her food for a while, resulting in bouts of diarrhea, repeat trips to the vet, prescription meds and food. I've tried many different dog foods with same results. After some more research I found Canidae all life stages and slowly introduced it into her diet. Within days the results were "piling up!" (pun intended). She was dropping a very healthy poop, 1 to 2 times a day! No diarrhea for months now, which is why I waited to write this lengthy review (my apologies). I also buy the different flavors and she loves them all! Great ingredients, great product.

Unfortunately, I hadn’t read enough about what legumes do to a dog’s digestive system. Because it was on sale and I thought the brand was good I purchased 12 cans. My dog vomited on this food. As with any legumes in the diet it must be introduced slowly. I regret purchasing this product. My vet has since discouraged me from purchasing food with a high concentration of legumes. I cannot donate it either because I don’t want to pass along the same problem to another unsuspecting owner.

Love this brand. Wholeheartedly trust their products. Pet store staff and vets seem to agree when they ask what food she gets. Able to maintain a healthy weight on this wet food combined with the “less active” dry food. Very satisfied customer!
