Dr. Gary's Best Breed Holistic Puppy Diet Dry Dog Food is an all-natural balanced diet that’s holistically formulated to promote the healthy development of growing large breed and small breed puppies. Formulated with proper amounts of protein, fat and carbohydrates and balanced levels of key nutrients (calcium and phosphorus), this formula gives all puppies what they need for optimum growth and development. And because a puppy’s digestive system tends to be sensitive, only highly digestible protein and energy sources are used, including chicken, menhaden fish and egg. The Puppy Diet will benefit puppies and dogs of all sizes.

I used to foster a picky GSD who got used to eating human food from her previous owner. We wasted so much money trying different kinds of brand but she would either throw it up or eat only a little bit. Finally, came across this one and she finally ate!!! I don't have her anymore but my 2 female GSD puppies would eat this dog food and they look good and healthy. I definitely recommended this brand to my family and friends.
We recently got a new puppy and my other dog, that's now 3 years old used to ear this before switching to the Dr. Gary's Holistic Countryside for adults. I did a lot of research and couldn't be happier I chose Dr. Gary's Best Btand
My GSD breeder recommended this for the first year of my bois life and it is a wonderful quality food! He had zero digestive issues and no growing pains. Even the cat's wanted to eat it.
It rained when my package came but didn’t think anything of it because it’s always sealed. She hasn’t been going through her food as fast so it’s taken her longer to finish a bag. Just opened the bag and it’s ruined because it was already opened!
I love this food and my puppy loves this food. It was formulated by a Veterinarian. They help support the rescue that I got my Gracie from. They are a small business that cares about your pet.
We just got a new puppy and this is what our breeder was feeding. He is enjoying it and gobbles ever bite down. But as everything else it depends if you dog likes it.
Couldn't be happier with this food. We breed golden retrievers and our puppies love the taste. Our puppies have had no issues with diarrhea like we have had in the past with other brands.
Very nice high quality do food. Came to us recommended by the breeder, but turns out to be much better quality than Purina Pro Plan. My dogs love the food.
Dr. Gary’s dog food is very good quality for a reasonable price. Not the most expensive not the cheapest. Delivery was very speedy! Love the free shipping!
We have been using this blend with all of our pups for a few years and absolutely love it.
