Gradually transition by adding a small amount of FirstMate to your dog's current diet, gradually reducing the amount of the current diet and increasing the amount of FirstMate for 7 - 10 days until the transition is complete. For sensitive dogs, we recommend a 10 - 14 day transition.

I have 4 dogs. English Mastiff, German shepherd, half redbone hound half blue heeler and a malinois x. They all 4 went pretty bougie but my 10 and a half month old MalinoisX went the bougiest for this. He won't touch his venison/bison food nor the other one with freeze dried raw duck in it. You get 5 stars and a plus. Besides the fact that my Mali only wants this food lol

I did a lot of research for a duck dog food. While I believe this is a very good high quality dog food, Matthew (my 10 month old Cocker Spaniel) wont touch it. For some reason he wants nothing to do with it. I only gave it one star because Matthew wouldn't eat it. However, I give the brand itself 5 stars. I realize that one dog may like something and another may not. It happens. I ordered three bags in hopes he would not only like, but do well on it. I donated the 2 unopened bags to my local shelter.

A great food at a reasonable price

My dog loves the duck and oats. She’s done well on all the recipes. Bonus for no flax seed in the recipe.

My Chester has food allergies and is limited on what he can eat. He seems to be not eating his previous brand of food so I thought he might like this flavor since he loves his treats made with duck. But he will not even eat this food so I have once again wasted money on food he will not eat.

Dog Allergy Under Control

This single protein dog chow significantly decreased the allergy symptoms our young Boston Terrier manifested. What a relief!
