Get the Right Nutrition at Every Age
With Nature's Recipe Life Stages dog foods, you can be sure you're providing everything your dog needs, from playful puppy to beloved senior. Every stage is important and requires different nutrients to support his healthy lifestyle, whether he needs more or less energy or extra support as he ages.


Made for Growing Pups
To fuel a young pup's energetic nature, these Puppy formulas are made with a single animal protein source and a specific blend of vitamins and minerals. Omegas are added to start your dog out with healthy skin and a shiny coat, and natural fiber sources like chicory root or pumpkin give him digestive support.
A More Grown-Up Diet
Nature's Recipe Adult food keeps up the energy your dog had as a puppy and powers your active dog's metabolism and alertness. High-quality protein from premium sources like chicken and lamb help maintain your adult dog's lean muscle mass.


Fit for Senior Dogs
As your adult dog ages and settles into his senior life, his nutritional needs will change. Senior recipes are loaded with calcium for bone support, quality protein and fatty acids for brain function, and fiber for optimal digestion.

Their premium pet foods never use ingredients like beef, corn or wheat that tend to cause food intolerances. They include quality protein and nutrients without artificial flavors or colors because they believe your pet deserves only the best.

Good balance of nutrition for puppies
By MachelleY on Feb 12, 2021
We had been giving grain free puppy food to our new rescue pup, but were told by our vet that puppies actually need grains for healthy heart development while they are growing, so we switched to Nature's Recipe Lamb Meal & Rice puppy food. Our pup loves it and we are happy knowing that it is a balanced mixture of everything that will help him develop in a healthy way!

Our pup loves it!
By ShellyH on Feb 1, 2021
This was recommended to us as a healthier food option and we loved the price as well. In the transition over from the old food to the new food, our pup kept choosing this one. She has easily switched over and loves the food!

Great food, fast shipping.
By Royboy on Jan 3, 2021
My 9 month old Dalmatian puppy is an extremely picky eater, he will eat this food. When I ordered the bag of food it was delivered in less than 24 hours with standard shipping. Very impressed with the shipping and quality of the food, also can’t beat the price!

Mediocre at best
By Onelazymom on Oct 4, 2020
Purchased this to mix with another food since my lab puppy lost interest in his usual food. This is round, dark, and very hard. Doesn't look appealing at all. Luckily, he's eating it. No issues with vomiting and he's gaining weight. Unfortunately, it causes the worst smelling gas. Once he finishes this bag, I won't buy it again. I did have to mix in a little water when he tried it for the first time (about 11 weeks old).

My puppies love it! Great price
By Rose on Jul 18, 2020
My puppies are now 2 months(lab/husky/shepherd mixes) and they are extremely picky, I was using Purina dry and they wouldn't eat it(I still use Purina wet as my puppies like it) My parents dogs love this food so I decided to give it a try and I'm glad I did! I recommend it, and my puppies do too

Great transaction with Chewy
By FrenchiePugMom on Jun 16, 2020
The price was great and as always Chewy delivered as promised and in good condition. As far as the food itself goes my dogs really don't like the taste of it. It really has no odor. The odor it does have is not very appealing. I mix some canned food in with it to make it taste a little better. The kibble size is good for puppies and small dogs.

a food I feel good about
By grelsonfamily on Jul 14, 2020
I spent hours researching dog kibble for my Husky. I wanted something without pea protein, and grain inclusive. This food fits the bill!

Puppy was not a fan!
By Teddy226 on Mar 12, 2020
Our 14 week old pup did not seem to like this dog food. Left it sitting in his dish. That's not to say other pups wouldn't like it, because I think we have a picky, little eater here.
