Diamond Naturals Large Breed Puppy Formula Dry Dog Food

We’ve got a Blue Heeler pup. I was feeding him Iams Smart Puppy since that’s what I’ve always given my pups but he was having tons of poops and also farting and clearing the room, even after months on Iams. So, we researched for about a week and changed to this food. It’s sooo much beater. He’s growing well with a plush soft coat, especially for a heeler. After about 5 weeks on the new food, the gas became tolerable and minimal. Also, I noticed fewer poops and healthy teeth. He didn’t like the food at first, but we just left it out until he accepted the new flavors. Now, he loves it. He’s Always excited for dinner. Also, he no longer gorges himself and he eats slower, usually leaving 1/4 of his We’ve got a Blue Heeler pup.

I have a really picky Chihuahua, we switched from Purina to this this brand because a lady recommended it to us because her dog was also a picky eater. We did the switch over, and we notice her stomach still didn’t take well to the food. We were really hoping this brand would work but I think it’s time to look for a new one that’ll be better for our girls stomach

I have been on the hunt, looking for puppy food that doesn't give my german shepherd loose stools. I tried a brand recommended by my vet (Purina Pro Plan) and he not only had loose stools but threw up the food. I was even slowly weaning him on Purina, unfortunately, it didn’t agree with him. I am SOO glad I found Diamond Naturals. He now has healthy stools and he gobbles this stuff like crazy. HAPPY PUP!!

I have a presa canario puppy and she’s been loving this food leaves her bowl completely empty every time and looking for more and hasn’t had a problem at all. She even loves the diamond brand treat biscuits I recommend those too!!

After trying a much more expensive large breed puppy food, I switched to Diamond Large Breed puppy because my dog refused to eat the other. Happily, he loves the taste of this food. He also seems to appreciate the smaller, rounder kibble size. I definitely would recommend. This food also ranked high on several ratings sites for large breed puppy food.

I have always been a fan of the diamond naturals and have heard great things about this dog food. Unfortunately it did not agree with my Doberman puppy. While on this food he would put off an extremely odd odor that smelt in the beginning of a horse stall but would turn into a burnt rubber smell. We tried multiple different shampoos products recommended by our vet but the smell would never go away. Finally our vet recommended we switch foods. Within 2-3 weeks of switching his diet the smell was gone!

The orange/red die comes out in my dogs stools. They are loose and strange color like the food. I introduced it gradually and after 2 weeks am still at 1/2 and 1/2. I can't help but think the dye is not good for them.

Don't know if the bag was old, but the food was partially disintegrated in the bag. I lost about 5 or so pounds of food that had turned into powder in the bag and have to actually sift out the powder in order to give it to my dog. This was such h a waste, but I can't afford to throw the whole 40 pound bag away, so I sift it. Fortunately, once it's sifted, the puppy will eat it. The food is ok once sifted.

My Anatolian Shepherd pup seems to like this one. I switch up between Wellness Large breed puppy food, Chicken Soup for the Soul Large Breed for pups, and now I can add this to the rotation. The only large breed puppy food that we tried and she did not like was the American Journey active life with salmon and brown rice.

After months of researching the complicated needs of rapidly growing giant breed puppies I found the perfect food for my little dude, but of course, he hated it. After adding all sorts of things to each meal to get him to eat it, I finally decided to go against all of the advice out there stating to, "Absolutely never give a GD puppy food!" because after more evidence-based research, it turns out most people just don't know what they are talking about and are spreading nutrition misinformation just like humans who follow fad diets! Anyways, the nutrient content is actually quite on par with his needs. He doesn't love it, but is eating it better than his last brand of dog food that was about After months of researching the complicated needs of rapidly growing giant breed puppies I found the perfect food for my little dude, but of course, he hated it.

He doesn't love it, but is eating it better than his last brand of dog food that was about twice the price and is finally gaining some weight. I wish they had a salmon and brown rice formula for more essential omega-3s, but otherwise, pretty happy with this. Love chewy's free deliveries and excellent return policy! … more
