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.

We first got this brand for our first dog that had serious food allergies (chicken). I reviewed multiple brands including blue Buffalo and this one just seemed the best. He was able to eat it without any issues, gastric or otherwise. Our current beast is always enthusiastic to get a bowl full (granted he's excited about any food) and we haven't had any issues from him yet... well, gastric at least.

L. I. D. Appears to be the “Ticket” in reducing &/or eliminating Unnecessary foodstuffs and ingredients, SPECIFICALLY CHEAP FILLERS as my Shepherd’s acute rash & itching is disappearing in conjunction with Steroidal Cream, Tablet & Calmative as it was extremely “Angry” and resistant. L. I. D. Dog Foods are the Ideal way to go unless one desires to feed all natural themselves with Boiled Chicken, Ground Chuck, Cottage Cheese, White Rice & some natural form of Beneficial Omega Fats..., BEWARE of FILLERS & ALL UNNECESSARY INGREDIENTS

My Frenchie isn’t picky, but he’s grown accustomed to a little extra than just dog food. I switched from health extension to this brand and no extra needed! He likes this as is. His stools are the same color as the dog food. It isn’t too dry or too wet. So glad it agrees with my Frenchie, who is a gaseous little gremlin. He loves this food.

My 75 pound doodle is thriving on this food. He loves all of the flavors and I feel good about feeding it to him. CHewy stands behind all of their products and they are a great company so its a win win.

I can tell this food only has in it what it says. My baby girl is allergic to so many things...but not this food! She is not having any adverse reactions to this and her coat is shiny and healthy looking!

My dog has numerous food allergies and I've been feeding her Natural Balance LID foods for over 8 years. I've purchased all the different flavors save the one or two she's allergic to and she hasn't had an allergic reaction to the ingredients.

My vet has prescribed the Lamb and brown rice for my dog and it's worked out very well. I did received in the mail a 15.00 coupon to apply to purchase which was very nice, plus shipping was free and ahead of time. Thank you Chewy

We love Natural Balance limited ingredients, having a dog with many food allergies to the proteins. We like that there is a large choice of foods without common proteins.

Slow process as he isn't used to being on a Limited Ingredient Diet dog food due to being recently diagnosed by the vet as allergic to chicken beef venison and bison. He does fine every now and again with some Swanson's 100 % Veggie Broth mixed in it and given some time to soak to help entice, interest or encourage him to eat it when he starts getting aversions. He is almost finished with his Probiotic Prescription from the vet, too. It's been a rough start but, I think we are getting him back on track. Now it's just a matter of addressing his recent diagnosis of stress induced anxiety or aka Emotional Stress issues (trapped emotions).

I have used this dog food for 7 years now and have a healthy and happy golden retriever. I have always bought it locally but decided last month to try Chewy.com because of my sister's recommendation. She is a lab breeder and has been using Chewy.com for some time now. My order arrived within 2 days as promised and while I am a brand new customer I am so far very pleased with your company. Would definitely recommend it to friends with pets.
