Iams ProActive Health Smart Puppy Large Breed Dry Dog Food

I wish that the food would make our puppy stop eating paper, cardboard, mulch, plastic and his own poop, but he does seem to finish the bowl everytime. We also use Iams cat food and the cat won't eat anything else so not bad overall.

Adopted a Great Pyredane puppy at 8 weeks. Fed her nothing but Iam’s Large Breed Puppy food and she averages 2.5 lbs. weight gain a week. According to her veterinarian, she is growing at a perfect pace. She is a normal, active, and healthy puppy. We’ve had other large breed dogs and fed them the super expensive dog food brands. Very pleased with the performance of Iam’s kibble and low cost is a bonus.

We’ve used this food for both our Dobermans and it has dine well for both so far and the ingredients are far better than some other brands. Even name brands cheaper food lines.

My 4 mo old Goldendoodle loves this food. We tried him on a more ‘organic’ food but he did not do well with it. Now he eagerly sits for his Iams puppy food.

We use this for our Golden Retriever puppy, he is doing great on it! The large kibble size is great, because with his other food (which was the same size kibble as our cat's food), he would gulp it down and get hiccups several times a day. That doesn't happen with Iam's. Our puppy loves the taste of this food, digests it well (no pooping issues), and is healthy and has lots of energy! Our vet recommended this food, he said the more expensive brands aren't any better, and this is cheaper- he eats about 6 cups of food per day now, so I am glad for that!

My 12.5 week old English Bulldog has been on this iams large breed puppy food since he was 9 weeks old. Stool consistency fluctuates. He vomits twice a week. Which by the way, it’s like 3 hours from the time he eats til puke time and he pukes up literally everything he had eaten... so I don’t think he’s digesting it properly because after 3 hours you would think most of it wouldn’t be in his belly still. He likes the taste for sure. It’s cheap. Obviously. My main concern is this feed does NOT have the AAFCO statement. Which means it’s not up to par for large breeds. I think we will try Diamond Naturals Large Breed Puppy. It’s approved by the AAFCO and is suitable for sensitive bellies and it’ My 12.5 week old English Bulldog has been on this iams large breed puppy food since he was 9 weeks old.

I buy large bags of Iams for my two Weimaraners and have them delivered via auto ship. The price is the same that I would pay at a grocery store, but the delivery makes it so much easier. On top of this, the live phone support at Chewy is incredible! Highly recommended!

We had to switch to a cheaper puppy food for now and this was recommended to us. Our pups love and they to do well being on this food!

It seems pretty legit. I’m a little concerned about the corn in the food, but from the looks of it, everything else is okay. Zero fillers, few dyes, and the kibble isn’t stinky. My four month old,German Shepard- boxer mix loves it so much that he will eat it as treats when I train him. He’s super active, growing like crazy and his coat is shiny. He had diarrhea when we first switched him and I don’t know if it was the food, the transition, or the fact that he eats so many plants outside and the cats poop. He’s fine now and gets excited to eat it whenever we feed him. He eats a lot, and drinks a lot, meaning that he poops a lot. but I presume that’s completely normal for a large breed puppy.

I don’t know the reason, but my 8 month old doesn’t want to eat it. Maybe we spoiled her with too much treats recently. She never walked away from any food before.
