Bought the bigger size
By Carol on Jun 15, 2020
Think I’ll try the smaller size again. My dogs have been constipated since eating the medium/large size. Will try more water on it first. Any suggestions?

So Far, So Good
By vrich515 on Feb 12, 2020
I have two seniors and one pup. The two seniors are to the point that they eat very little. They don't even like deli meats which they loved in the past as a snack. I have ordered every type of canned, fresh, human-grade wet food, nothing. However, they all like this dry food. It is just the right size for small to medium breeds. I give them dog supplements and as long as they are eating this, I feel they are getting their daily nutrition.

Both dogs love it

I have no problems with the dogs food and it’s good they don’t have legumes in it

Great product and not all meat based.
By Foreveraddictedtopets on Sep 15, 2019
I used This product for my cats a few years back. My cats ate it well and thrived on it so I decided to try it for our new, very fussy Norfolk Terrier pup as he was not eating another so-called quality product made specifically for small breed puppies. Always been very pleased with Farmina's product line and with having no children we are real animal fanatics.

Not a winner
By PLPL on Sep 10, 2019
I was hoping my dog would like this. He went up to it once, smelled and never went back to it. He must remember the smell because he wouldn’t go near his bowl each time that I put this food out. He refused to eat it. He rather go hungry and not eat than take a bite of this. I finally gave up after 2 days. This food also smells bad.

Switched from Earborn
By TammyP on Jul 25, 2019
My Rottie/Lab had been on Earthborn grain free since she was a pup. Her skin, coat, teeth and weight have always been pristine. But with the DCM scare, I felt it was best to use caution and find a grain inclusive food. After a LOT of reading, I decided on the Ancestral Grain. She made the transition very easily and, after a few weeks, is still doing well on it. Its approximately the same in calories, so I didn't have to make much change in her feeding. Planning to transition my 4 month old Golden pup to Farmina puppy food from the Purina food my vet recommended, as he is already being treated for a skin and ear infection and is itching nonstop. Good food = healthy dogs!

Excellent food
By LindyBugs on Aug 21, 2019
Our finicky dog actually eats this food without turning up his nose. I have friends who use Farmina. We chose this one, Ancestral Grains, because research showed that Spelt and Oats provide very good nutrition, and Farmina is non-GMO. This is huge, IMO. And the rest of the ingredients are excellent.

Great Food
By Coachkit on Sep 25, 2019
The ingredients are great and my dogs love it. Unfortunately their stools aren’t where they need to be. Extremely soft and mushy.
