My Boy Rocco had gone through a series of food brands and none would work. Merrick and Purina. My Dogs poop would be runny like soup and would throw up and even when I tried soft mix with dry food and it was just tons of $$ wasted. Tried this and it does wonders. Not only does my German Shepherd Blue heeler mix Rocco loves it! But it’s healthy poop and he’s healthy and great shiny coat. Started with the teal color puppy bag and now have moved to this. Very good quality for a good price compared to other brands. All dogs are different and hopefully this brand will be right for your canine! Definitely recommend!

I was trying to find a food that would work for my dog that wouldn't make her poop too runny or too hard that she would like. I've tried limited ingredients and it was just too strange for her; seem to give her diarrhea. Then we went to an average food that was rated well but she still seemed to not like it as much. Then I switched to this and it works very well for her. Thank you.

We have given our dogs several varieties of Natural Balance dog food. We rotated this food in and both our Springer Spaniels really like it. Even our less enthusiastic older dog took right to it. Another winner.

We were feeding our 1.5 year chocolate lab Taste of the Wild food ever since she was a pup. However, lately she has been vomiting and not wanting to touch her food. We transitioned her over to the Natural Balance Original Ultra with no issues. SHE LOVES THIS FOOD! This is the first dry food that she will eat without some kind of "extra" or "topper"...plus...NO VOMITING like she was with the TOTW food. We will be sticking with Natural Balance from this point forward.

My girl Kaiya has various "skin"issues that we have dealt with fairly often since I adopted her 3 years ago. Every dog and every health issue is different, so over these 3 years we've tried a few different foods. Thank goodness she is not super picky. There are 2 brands t hat seem to work best for her, Natural Balance and Merrick. I do always use some form of moisture to any dry food she eats. Kaiya really enjoyed this product and aside from additional moisture she didn't need any tasty tidbits on top to encourage a clean bowl. For us it was also the best regular product to help with weight loss. Good stuff!

My dog loves Natural Balance. I'm confident it has quality ingredients and offers balanced nutrition--and it's reasonably priced.

Long and tedious trial and error of food testing, but we found this one doesn't give our dog runny poops and a sensitive stomach as it doesn't have a crazy high protein content compared to other brands or formulas. A mix of this and a daily probiotic chewies did the trick! She seems to love it and we intend on staying on this food for a while.

We were looking for a good balanced food that would satisfy the health and caloric needs of our 10 year old Border Collie/Lab mix and our 4 year old Weim. Natural Balance has definitely met that bill. They love it, and after nearly a month, the health benefits are beginning to show. Better coats. Increased energy.

In the past, I have used the Limited Ingredient versions and have had to find ways to cut back on expenses. I switched to this standard version and my dog has been doing great. No adverse effects other than size of stool is larger. I think switching to this version has actually helped her with not having dry skin.

This brand was recommended to us by the original owner of Stella . We have been using it for the last 8 years and she is in great shape. Stella being a blue heeler and bull terrier mix she is quite active and loving at 10 years old . I know its because of her diet.
