The amounts in the table are intended as guidelines only. The food intake should be adjusted according to the age, weight, breed, temperature, climate and activity level of your dog. Consult a veterinarian for specific weight recommendations.
Adult dogs should be fed either once or twice per day. When you first start feeding Natural Balance® L.I.D. Limited Ingredient Diet Dry Dog Food, we suggest starting with the amounts recommended in the table. Energy requirements vary with environmental conditions, temperature and activity of your dog. The amount of food should always be adjusted to suit your dog's needs.
For working dogs: Based on the work your dog will be asked to perform, the nutritional requirements will vary accordingly. As the workload increases, the demand for protein and fat increases proportionally. Dogs in hard training will generally require twice the maintenance levels.
For older dogs: As your dog begins to age, his energy expenditure will decrease. Decreasing the amount of food accordingly will allow for the maintenance of proper body weight for a less active dog.
Remember, fresh clean water should be available at all times!
When switching your dog's diet, the change should be made gradually by replacing the current food with increasing portions of Natural Balance® Lamb Meal & Brown Rice Dry Dog Food. The change should be completed after 5 - 7 days. The maintenance of proper body weight is most important for your dog's health. Consult your veterinarian for specific weight recommendations for your dog.

Maybe for others, not for mine unfortunately
By EckosMommy on Apr 24, 2020 Top 1000 Contributor
Dakota has allergies and I personally believe it’s mainly seasonal as that’s when we see the spike in itchiness. The vet said, however, that it’s a good idea to get her on a limited ingredient diet. She isn’t a fan of alligator and I don’t even see that food here anymore so I went with a good name brand food. Unfortunately, even though most reviews rave about this food, my girl will not touch it. I mixed it in with her old food and she literally picks through it and spits the pieces out if she accidentally gets them in her mouth! I’ve never seen that in all my life! It’s insane! I’m at a loss right now because the only thing she devours is that beneful garbage that’s had one too many recalls Dakota has allergies and I personally believe it’s mainly seasonal as that’s when we see the spike in itchiness.

I’m at a loss right now because the only thing she devours is that beneful garbage that’s had one too many recalls and not so good ingredients! I digress....this isn’t tasty to her so I now have 28 pounds for the shelter and not the best time to be out this kind of money. Definitely give it a go for your pup, mine just won’t eat it. Doesn’t mean it isn’t good for other furbabies! … more

Natural Balance L.I.D. Dry Dog Food
By Penelope on May 18, 2020
This is the only kibble my dog has eaten consistently for several days in a row. When I added some canned food that I already had he ate that for 2 nights and then turned up his nose. He's eaten just then dry Natural Balance since them. Thank you, because I have been trying different foods for 1 & 1/2 years and this is the longest he has been consistent with anything!!

So far so good!
By Heather on May 20, 2020
I’m currently transitioning 2 of our 3 to this food. After years of searching for food that both our girls could eat that was grain inclusive and also LID since our oldest has several food triggers...this is my pick. Thankful I didn’t stop my search and Chewy carries this!

Only food for my gassy dog!
By Lisa on May 14, 2020
My poor boy (medium sized lab mix) has a very sensitive stomach. Any "normal" dog food and he has an upset stomach all day with the worst gas. Took me a about 9 months from adoption to now to try this brand and the L.I.D recipe but so glad we did!

Please take care of Subscription Customers in the future
By Kermit on Apr 17, 2020
Chewy is a great company and my previous experience has been that Chewy provides excellent service. However, like many other companies that provide subscriptions, Chewy failed to take care of the loyal customers that depend on subscriptions. And like many other companies, no forethought or commitment was given to the subscription customers that depend on this service.

Money well spent
By Treva on Apr 24, 2020
Both our labs have allergies and were constantly being taken to the vet for shots or pills. This limited ingredient food has helped tremendously. It has helped with their allergies and they love the taste.

Great solution for dog with allergies
By JEbear25 on Mar 15, 2020
Our American bulldog/pit mix struggled with allergy flare-ups off and on for several years. So glad these LIDs exist and are affordable. It has done wonders for his skin and coat. No more runny eyes or itchy paws—we think he had a poultry allergy. He’s been eating this brand for almost a year now, and I’m so happy we found this food.

Great food, but-
By Experimenting on Apr 21, 2020
I don’t know why they got rid of the bigger size kibble! The food is great, my dog likes it and it doesn’t give his sensitive digestion any problems. I just wish they still had the large breed bites.

Picky Dog, back to square one!
By Lizzie on Feb 10, 2020
Although our Husky eats Natural Balance, she’s refusing this one. We’ve only had her 3-1/2 months now and still trying to figure the most desirable food. Realizing she’s not going to be easy to please. We bought the 28 pound bag not thinking it would be an issue. And we’ve tried everything on top of slowly switching from. Venison and Sweet Potatoe to the Lamb. She enjoys the Lamb canned so I didn’t think it would be a Problem. Back To square one! Anyone want the rest of our bag??? Lol
