Farmina N&D Ancestral Grain Lamb & Blueberry Medium & Maxi Adult Dry Dog Food

So, I wanted to leave a huge review for this food. I have multiple pictures for this review as well. My 1 year old, 80+ lbs pitbull/retriever mix dog has been the pickiest dog i have ever had in my life. He turns his nose up to so much food, therefore meaning I have spent money on so much food. I was getting to the point of "if he's hungry enough, he'll frikin eat it". I even looked for a way to get mini sample packs of food to see if he'd show me what he'd like... I found diddly squat! I finally decided my last ditch effort was to order the smaller bags of a couple well reviewed dog foods, and do a sample food buffet along with some other foods I have bought over the months.

In order: *Farmina N&D Lamb & Blueberry for Medium and Maxi breeds, *[no bag in picture] a grain free, Acana brand food (i don't remember the flavor, sorry!) *Nutro Lamb & Brown Rice for Large Breed Puppy, *Eukanuba Chicken for Large Breed & Active Puppy, *Farmina N& D Chicken & Pomegranate for Medium and Maxi, & * Zigniture Limited Ingredient Turkey (for my white dog with severe allergies) #i also want to note, I did a majority of grain foods because, after extensive research, grain free foods were found more-long term- damaging to golden retriever breeds(which my black dog is half of) [My cat & dogs did sniff all foods] END RESULTS?! (For fun) Kitty- Farmina N&D Chicken & Pomegranate! (The picky one!) Black dog- Farmina N&D Lamb & Blueberry! *I would like to mention though, the only other one he decided was acceptable enough to even taste test was the Farmina N&D Chicken and Pomegranate (Allergies) white dog- Zigniture Turkey Limited Ingredient! * phew! I was worried about that one! So glad she loves her special food! I would like to mention though, the only other foods she found worthy to taste test were both the Farmina N&D's. Hope y'all found this helpful! … more

Purchased this for my toy poodle who stopped eating Purina Pro Plan. The kibble is larger than I expected, about the size of a nickle. It is too big for my dog so I soak the kibble and cut it in small pieces. The bag was pricey from Chewy. I found it locally for $5 less after purchasing it from Chewy. If I purchase this food again, I would get a different sized kibble. My dog eats it but not ravenously. At least he's eating it, but for now long? Ugh!

I’ve been trying to find a food that works with my dogs allergies. He liked it at first and then stopped eating it right after we got our second bag. He won’t even go near it. Maybe I got a bad bag but we got him some cans of wet food to hold him over and I’m back to searching for another option

I purchased this food because of the excellent reviews and ingredients. I was very excited to be able to feed my boxer a food I felt comfortable with the ingredients! Unfortunately he did not like it at all! I am totally disappointed, not in the quality of food but that he didn’t like it!

i ordered the small bag of Farmina for my Golden Retriever because I wanted to give him better food than he has been eating. I mixed a little more of his new food every day with his old food and was very pleased that he was eating it. Consequently I ordered the big bag because he appeared to be happy with it, but the first time I gave him the food from the new bag and every time I have tried since then, he won't eat it. Back to the junky food.

Transitioning to this food was difficult for my dogs, but I’m so happy that I stuck with it. Initially, it gave both my dogs diarrhea even with a slow transition. I had to initially add rice and slowed the transition down so it took a few months to fully transition. The results are incredible and so worthwhile. I have two dogs, both with allergies to different things that present in different ways. Charlie gets dry itchy skin and ear infections. Nala gets yeast and hot spots. This is the first food that has cleared both of their issues without making them gassy. I had them on a food before this that was working but made them incredibly gassy all of the time. This food is perfect and Transitioning to this food was difficult for my dogs, but I’m so happy that I stuck with it. Initially, it gave both my dogs diarrhea even with a slow transition.

It was my first time trying this food with my dog and the second I opened the bag it smelled completely rancid. I was really looking forward to seeing if this food would help with her allergies but unfortunately it was a waste of $80

This product was recommended by a pet nutritionist. The ingredients are straightforward and that is what is most important to me. The kibble size is pretty large, so if you have a small breed, definitely check to see if they offer a small breed option. My pups aren’t prickly and they don’t have digestive issues so they picked this up right away. We’re about two weeks into this food with no issues and happy tails at feeing time.

Made in Italy cold press method, no harmful chemicals are used to press into kibble. Italy regulates dog food better than America regulates human food

My dog likes this food. However. we noticed that he started losing a disturbing amount of hair and he also lost his shine. That started slightly after he starting taking this food. We switched to another brand and one week later he was regrowing hair and his fur was shinny again.
