When transitioning to our dry food from another brand, we typically recommend a 7-day transition period. Begin by introducing a small amount of FirstMate with the old food on the first day. Gradually increase the amount of the new food, decreasing the amount of the old food over the course of a week until they are eating exclusively FirstMate.
Why do your products appear different at times?
Our products contain natural ingredients without the addition of artificial coloring or binders. As a result, you may note variation in the appearance of our products between batches.
Chicken Fat and Chicken Allergies:
Our bodies and our pet’s bodies react differently with proteins and fats. An allergy is caused by the bodies reaction with the protein of what we’ve come in contact with. Our chicken fat is free of chicken protein and will therefore not cause a reaction for those animals with a chicken allergy.
Do you use GMO ingredients?
No, FirstMate and Kasiks do not contain GMO ingredients.
What is a meal? How does it compare to a fresh meat?
Chicken meal is a concentrated source of chicken protein in which most of the moisture and some of the fat has been removed. Meals such as these provide nearly 4 times more protein than the fresh ingredients.

Balding gone!
By Ze1da on Dec 26, 2020
I love this dog food because my basenji mix loves it too. Hes been eating this food for over a year now and his fur has grown in the naturally thin areas as well as almost no shedding at all! I just wish I could find this food at the local stores I case chewy stops selling it.

Great for my Rottie
By Loebean on Oct 4, 2020
I have been feeding this to my Rottie now for several months. His coat is shiny and soft. He has lots of energy and his poo is nice and firm. He enjoys the taste and looks forward to mealtime. He is also at an excellent weight. This food is not cooked at as high of temperatures as other dog foods so it retains more of the nutrients and is also a bit easier on the pocketbook. Would highly recommend.

Good ingredients, good company
By LynetteN on Apr 9, 2020 Top 1000 Contributor
The the company that makes this food does not do cruel laboratory tests on animals and the ingredients are amazing, so that is why I decided to try this food for my dogs. No copper sulfate, menadione sodium bisulfite, or caramel color? Wow! My 5 dogs like it well enough (especially the pit bull), but unfortunately it made my female Italian Greyhound throw up twice (she possibly ate too fast), and it gives my male husky sloppy poop. For those reasons, I can't give this food 5 stars, but I still think it's good food. If my dogs did better on it, I would keep it on autobuy.

Made my dogs sick
By DogLovr on May 16, 2020
I understand it’s a calorie rich food. Despite starting a slow transition, two of my three dogs got very ill after a day. I was excited about the food in theory but it won’t work and I’ve discontinued after two days.

Great Ingredients. Dogs don’t like.
By AshNicole on Mar 11, 2020
After reviewing many dog foods, I heard really good things about this one. The price was great, the ingredients were great, great reviews, etc. Unfortunately, none of the dogs that I’ve been around have liked it. My two dogs refuse to eat it. If we try to mix it with wet food they like, they eat around it. My moms dog is the exact same. Won’t touch it. As much as I wanted this dog food to work for us, I’m going to have to try something else.

Love First Mate dog food but this type made our dogs sick
By zzzz on Apr 9, 2020
First Mate dog food is usually high quality food made by their own company in Canada. However, this "Skoki" type of their food made 2 of our 4 dogs sick with vomiting and diarrhea.

MY ITCHY WHITE PITTIE IS NO LONGER ITCHING!!!!!!!!
By Pitmom on Sep 17, 2019
I am forever grateful for this food. Found out my white pit bull is allergic to FLAXSEED...FYI flaxseed is in most high quality dog foods! Very difficult finding a quality food without flaxseed! This one works for our wallet, her skin/allergy needs and she loves it! She cleaned her bowl within minutes! Normally she picks at it, drops it on the floor and grazes all day. She hasn’t dropped a single piece of this food on the floor. THANK YOU!!! I will always recommend this food to my fellow Pittie mommas who have itchy dogs!

Much better quality kibble
By Kvinne on Jul 2, 2019
Our dogs love this food! It takes a slower transition from the food we were feeding. It's richer and can cause pudding stools without a slow transition. This is our food of choice now.
