Quality Low Fat/Low Calorie Dry Food
By 5DogReview on Nov 14, 2020
I bought this for my dog that has Pancreatitis because I wanted a diet that was low fat and still had quality ingredients. First off, I like the fact that the maximum fat percentage is listed in the back of the bag. I'm not too fond of the Dried Beet Pulp and Brewers Dried Yeast ingredients but considering neither is one of the top 5 ingredients I'm content. It does have interesting ingredients to help with weight loss and improve gut health so both a plus for my pancreatic dog needing to lose weight. Yes, my dog has lost weight. Overall, the ingredients are better than any low fat/low calorie dog food out there. Pretty much every one of them have excessive carbohydrates and create excessive I bought this for my dog that has Pancreatitis because I wanted a diet that was low fat and still had quality ingredients.

Overall, the ingredients are better than any low fat/low calorie dog food out there. Pretty much every one of them have excessive carbohydrates and create excessive stool volume. Excessive carbs and Pancreatitis don't mix but the carbs in this diet are quality so it did not cause any stomach issues and no excessive stool volume. I freaked out and laughed when I saw the kibble size. This looks like bird food. All five dogs still liked the taste. The size is not ideal for dogs that inhale their food but great for dogs that don't have many teeth like one of mine. None have ever tried grains and this has quality grains. This diet is pea free so there's no need to worry about splitting of pea-byproducts (pea protein, pea flour, pea fiber) which increases the volume of peas present. One of my dogs is allergic to potatoes and another has yeast infection/food allergies. The one allergic to potatoes did fine with it however the one with yeast infection/allergies did not due to the chicken, grains, Brewer's Yeast, and bovine colostrum (milk allergy). … more

Great food!
By Margeod on Nov 1, 2020
I have a tea cup Yorkie that’s been putting on weight . She has joint problems and the extra weight makes it worse. I actually have three little dogs and two of them are little chiunkers! All of them took to the food well, with no digestive issues.

The kibble are petite size
By Liberty on Sep 2, 2020
From 2lbs to 10 lbs this would be a great size kibble for your pup which is exactly what I was looking for in a healthy dry dog food. Unfortunately neither of my dogs are very fond of the taste. In the photo the small kibble are compared to Health Extensions Original chicken & brown rice recipe for all life stages. Chewy.com gets 5 Stars. Thank you Chewy.com for always being so prompt on my orders.

Easy to feed. 0
By Gina on Sep 18, 2020
Dogs like the food. It smells good to me. Measures out easily. Doesn't have any probiotics. However. It's a good choice for rotating my dogs' food . Plus, they have gotten a bit chubby, due to Covid-19. So, the weight management is a great choice.

Zeke loves it and it is not causing eye drainage. My dogs dietary sensitivity is doing well with this change.

Only good for my Yorkies and Biewer Terriers
By Natasha2014 on Aug 13, 2020
This is the only food I’ve used since 2014. My first Biewer Terrier came with it. I’ve since changed all of Yorkies and Biewers onto it and there’s been no problem.

The problem is not the food, it is the company
By Sucks on May 2, 2020
I don’t care if there’s a pandemic all the other dog food delivery companies are running only a day late I have never seen anything sit for over a week with no communication, yet they were quick to grab my money and charge it on my card

High quality food
By Lisa on Apr 20, 2020
First of all my dog loves this food! She is a very picky eater. I love that it is a light formula as my little girl tends to gain weight. Love the ingredients and my other two use the larger bites with the same success
