Diamond Naturals Lamb Meal & Rice Formula Adult Dry Dog Food

Our Favorite

I have had this formula on autoship for over a year now. I can not say enough good things about it! I love that it's affordable, but it also has the best quality ingredients at this price point. I've watched other similarly rated & priced brands shoot up an extra $15 dollars or so due to inflation, but not this one. I appreciate the consistency. Before my dog started eating this formula, he couldn't make a solid stool to save his life. Now they are very healthy. (Although, I have to agree with many other reviewers: this stuff gives my dog some pretty crazy smelling gas. it's only really a problem when he's not eating consistently. I know, my dog's weird, and he really doesn't care much for food or treats.) He has had problems with stomach sensitivity in the past, and this food sits well with him.

I have been feeding this to all my dogs. Ive even had people start giving ot to their dogs. My 12 1/2 ur old big dog(80 lbs) was why i started feeding ot. He started losing his hair on previous food. His coat an health are excellent. My 1 1/2 old service dog is absoluteley glowing. This is a great food for a decent price. And the proof is in a 12 1/2 year old dog thats been on it 9 years and doing AWESOME

My autoship was due but they were out of the 40lb bags of Diamond Naturals so they did have the 20lb bags..for the time being I got 2 20lb bags until the others come in. They were very good in giving me a discount since the smaller bags are more expensive than getting the larger ones. My dogs have stayed pretty healthy on this food...they are 10 and 13.

Quality

We have been getting this on auto ship for awhile now and it seems the quality has went downhill. Dogs used to love it but now it's more food dust and seems dryer than before. Dogs have no interest in it anymore, it sits in the bowls all day and seems to irritate their skin.

No more scratching!

I have an akita/German shepherd and a shar pei who constantly scratched. The shar pei was loosing all of her hair. Switch to the lamb food and everyone's coats are smooth, full and they itch very little! Highly recommend!

Don't know where to go from here

I've tried just about all the dry dog food that contain grain after having had a dog develop heart problems from no grain. I thought they liked this one, as they ate it at first from a small bag. So I order a huge size bag, only to find they will no longer eat it. I have only one other brand to try before giving up.

Horrible for our dogs

Our vet recommended lamb and rice for our golden retriever, she has chicken allergies. So we thought why not give to all our dogs. We adjusted their dog food, half the old and half the new. After two weeks. Made both our girls sick. Loose stools and vomiting one girl. Vomiting for the other girl. Our boy, just changed the color of his poop. Not taking anymore chances, gave the rest of the dog food away. They are slowly getting back to normal after switching back to their old dog food. Lamb is extremely rich, not all dogs can handle it.

both dogs throwing and pooping blood

Switched my dogs to this food because chewy doesn’t have the food we normally feed them. Both dogs starting having diarrhea in the house and throwing up multiple times a day. Blood was in there stool as well. DO NOT RECOMMEND

Seems Lije Good Food

My dogs are lucky, so it’s really hard to find food they will eat; they will eat this, but only with an amendment , like carrots, or sweet potatoes. That’s pretty normal for them. No elevated gas (both are brachacephelic, so a real concern) and firm stools. No upset tummies. Will buy again, but might try a different flavor.

High quality

I think this is one of the best dry dog foods available, especially at this price point. All 3 of our dogs, even the finicky Standard Poodle, like this and gobble it down. I add some canned American Journey to it, and they almost dive in up to their ears!
