When changing to Taste of the Wild, we recommend making a gradual transition over 7 - 10 days to help avoid possible digestive upset in sensitive pets. Add a small amount of new food to your dog’s previous diet, gradually increasing the new and decreasing the previous diet until the transition is complete.
The Diet Nature Intended
They might not be wolves or coyotes, but today's domestic dogs share the same ancestral cravings. To satisfy these instinctual appetites, Taste of the Wild wet and dry formulas are made with real, roasted meat plus fruits, vegetables and legumes that are chosen for their specific health benefits.
Energy That Lasts
Taste of the Wild is made with premium meats like wild boar; buffalo; smoked salmon and turkey; and roasted bison, lamb, quail, venison and duck. Every formula is grain-free and provides lasting energy with complex carbs from sweet potatoes and legumes. These highly digestible proteins and fiber-rich carbohydrates will keep your pup feeling full and energized throughout the day.
Immune System Support
Since 70% of your pet's immune system is found in the gut, it makes sense to choose a food that's good for the digestive tract. Taste of the Wild includes prebiotics and species-specific probiotics with bacteria that's naturally found in a dog's GI tract. The proprietary K9 Strain probiotics are added after the kibble is cooked so your dog gets guaranteed live, active cultures that support healthy digestion.
Maximizing Nutrient Absorption
To help your pet's body absorb all of the beneficial minerals in her food, Taste of the Wild recipes have chelated minerals. That means they can easily attach to proteins for absorption during digestion. So your canine pal will enjoy the full value of every carefully selected mineral that these foods have to offer.
Perfectly Balanced Omegas
Taste of the Wild gives your pup just the right dose of omega fatty acids in every bite. Marine-sourced omega-3 comes from salmon oil, smoked salmon or ocean fish meal, or a combination of these ingredients. Omega-6 from plant sources balance out the omega-3s, and they work together to help maintain your pet's skin and coat health and to support overall wellness.
Ingredients for Better Health
The powerful superfood trio of blueberries, raspberries and tomatoes can be found in every delicious recipe, along with their immune-boosting properties.
TOMATOES and TOMATO POMACE: Help support overall health by providing vitamin C, soluble fiber and rich in concentrated lycopene, a premier antioxidant.
BLUEBERRIES: Antioxidant-rich superfood that's full of flavor and loaded with vitamins C and E, healthy carbs, dietary fiber and manganese.
RASPBERRIES: Delicious berries packed with potassium, manganese, copper, iron and magnesium, and they also provide fiber and antioxidants.

Good stuff!
By TM00 on Jul 19, 2020
My dog Sam loves her dry food, Taste of the Wild, but I do add some Stella & Chewy"s freeze dried organ meat and some water too. I used to just add some wet food since she will never eat just the dry. After a ton of research I realized the organ meat was way more healthy than the canned food. I now finally feel like I'm giving my dog the best nutrition for a long happy life.

No more allergy itching
By Mojomom on Jul 24, 2020
My chi developed allergies to chicken and many of the grain free non chicken options still had chicken products if you read the small print so he was still itching. 3/4 of a bag and he isn’t itching and his hair is thickening again. Both he and my jackchi love this food !!

The smell/ taste doesn't appeal to the dog
By Alma on Jun 30, 2020
I'm not sure if it's garbanzano beans or some other additive but my beagle won't touch it. She would rather starve for a couple of days before trying to eat it. We had another Taste of the Wild kibble and she was eating it gladly. I was tempted by the kibble size of this dry food but my dog doesn't like it. It is not tasty for her.

My Shiba Seems to Really Like This Food
By Hadabuck on Jul 8, 2020
My Shiba is very picky. She will enjoy new food for a few bowls, then turn up her nose. She much prefers smaller size kibbles, too. This kibble is about the same size as cat food, and she really seems to like it.

Changed the formula?
By Hmj5 on Jul 26, 2020
My dog loves this food, but he hates the most recent bag I ordered from here. He would eat the old food over the new, and usually, a fresh bag is his favorite.

get roasted bison and venison!
By LabLoverIan on Jun 28, 2020
Huge mistake. Last time I got roasted bison and venison and my puppy loved it! I didn't want him to get bored so I changed the flavor. He hates eating it cuz it's all peas! Get roasted bison and venison if you could!

Picky eater
By Grif on Aug 1, 2020
My dog is disinterested in his Taste of Wild food. Generally won’t eat until he’s hungry. Add cheese and that doesn’t always help

My 2 Shih Tzu mixes love this, and there’s no digestive issues
By DebInFl on Jul 5, 2020
It’s the highest amount of protein in the Taste of the Wild brand, which is important for Shih Tzu. They love the taste and the kibbles are small enough for small breed dogs.

Poor service
By Luchetti on Apr 29, 2020
Products fine. It is the company’s lack of charging a customer when designated. A lack of customer service concern over phone in dealing with an issue. Reps on phone don’t care in correcting a company error. Account is charged at times not designated by customer. Huge delays. Lack of response. Inconsistent removal of moneys from my bank acct. it’s easier to purchase locally.
