We have found that the smoothest transition from one dog food to another is to mix the foods together. When changing to CANIDAE some dogs may do better by making a gradual transition over 7 - 10 days. Start with 25% of the new food mixed with 75% of the previous diet and gradually increase the new while decreasing the previous until the transition is complete

So far so good but...
By Rocko on Oct 15, 2020 Top 500 Contributor
My dog has gained a bit of weight and our vet suggested I find a food that is wayyy lower in fat. I pretty much looked at all the foods on Chewy that's NOT grain-free and this one seem to hit the lower protein and low fat % and good ingredient category. It's been about a week and so far no upset stomach, no loose stool. Like others have mentioned, He does go poo about one to two times more but he's stool looks good and doesn't smell as much! On a side note, the chewy box came all dented and almost open but the dog food bag itself was ok. I wish they didn't put bone stock in with this box... it dented the bone broth and it exploded. As much as I want to save the environment and use less boxes My dog has gained a bit of weight and our vet suggested I find a food that is wayyy lower in fat.

Of course Chewy did everything right and sent a new box of bone broth after I sent them photos, so A+++ for customer service as usual :) … more

unsolved issue
By Eileen on Sep 16, 2020
My dog has been on this brand and formula since age 1 due to hip displasia that he was born with. He is now 8. I'm very familiar with the size and color of this kibble and in the last three 30 lb bags it has drastically changed from a dark, rich color to a much lighter not so healthy looking kibble. The size is larger too. Because of that drastic change I am not sure what I'm feeding my dog now. I'm not confident it's the same food and will now have to find another senior, less active food and transition him, which is unfortunate since he's 8 and already has enough hip and digestive issues. Since he has eaten the lighter kibble his stools are not firm but very soft.

I've spoken with the Canidae company twice in the last week and they tell me the formula has not changed and that sometimes the color may vary due to certain ingredients. Odd that in the last 7 years that has never happened. I was once very happy with this dog food and am now very disappointed and frustrated. My concern is with this brand of dog food not with Chewy. … more

We like it but ....
By SaraHilary on Jul 1, 2020
We really like this food, but I will say the last 2 bags we have received are very powdery, by the time we get to the bottom of the bag there's at least 2 inches of just powdered kibble as if someone had stepped on all the pieces. The dogs don't seem to mind but it definitely tends to make a mess towards the end of the bag. We've used Canidae for years and have never had this problem before.

Delivery issue
By Miriam on Aug 20, 2020
So, here’s my only issue with delivery of our order: The food has been handled so much that it has dust all in it. The pill pockets are damaged. Hope this can be sorted out?

Yummy In his Tummy
By Brady on May 12, 2020
My dog Brady has always loved Canidae. When he was a puppy I did a test of 5-6 foods on paper plates. Each time he went to the Canidea brand first and finished eating it first also. When I purchased this bag for less active dogs I wondered if he would love it as much as the other flavors. Yupper pupper he does!
