I had allergy testing on my Rat Terrier mix because of so many symptoms, e.g.. vomiting, diarrhea, scabs on ear tips, open sores on top of head, nail beds, and bottom of paws. Found she was allergic to all weeds, grasses, and trees in our area and all foods except meat, milk and eggs. She is now on allergy shots. Found this food near perfect for her, except for the apple pectin which doesn't seem to bother her since it's so far down on the ingredient list. Did find she likes it better with a little water added and heated for 11 seconds. Thank you Wysong! SAVED THE DAY!

My thanks to Wysong for informing themselves of what constitutes a healthy diet for our pets, far lacking among most of their competitors, shamefully. I was pleasantly surprised to see the high percentage of animal protein, surpassing any other kibble I'm aware of and with no grain & minimal ingredients just as my two obligate carnivore cats would receive if living in the wild. Both of my two cats like it so it's a win/win that they too, appreciate the goodness of this product. The price is very reasonable, given the superior quality. I'd be spending much more in vet bills feeding my cats the usual garbage.

Am feeding 3 cats a total of about 1/3 cup dry food a day. I spread around in multiple dishes so everybody gets a little. They each also get a small can Fancy Feast twice daily and freeze dried chicken treats. Because one senior is diabetic, treats are given twice daily after shots. The only problem, so far, is the cost of the dry food added to diabetic supplies.

I started out mixing this formula with the food he was used to like they recommend, and my cat refused to eat it! I'm not sure about this food, as my cat has been on different catfoods over the years, and has never reacted this way to any food! I will not be buying this one again!

We have fed Epigen 90 as part of our wonderful dog's diet for over 9 years. It is the only starch free food I've found that I trust. Our dog also eats a raw diet with supplements, a home cooked stew, with this food added, and she does splendidly! I highly recommend this food as part of a whole, varied, and well rounded diet.

This is probably one of the best dry food formulas for kitties commercially available. Kitties are obligate carnivores (need to eat meat for energy & body functions), but many commercial foods contain a high amount of carbohydrates (which gets stored as fat). Epigen 90 is exceptional due to its high protein content in comparison to others on the market. My 3 kitties really like it too! But you know cats... just because my three cats like it doesn't mean you're cats will like it... they're cats! If your trying this food for the first time, introduce it very slow. Start with just a couple of kibble as a treat and see it they like it.

Do it over a period of a few weeks. Ask your vet for advice if there are any issues (many kitties have GI problems that food alone cannot support). P.S. most of my kitties' diet consists of a different brand of wet food, as it has a high protein and moisture content (keeps them good and hydrated!) However, if they were on a dry diet alone, I would be feeding Epigen 90 exclusively. … more

Was so excited to try this low starch cat food with good reviews. Then I opened the bag and saw barrel like kibble instead of flat. What a deal breaker! My cats are older and some swallow their food whole as it is. Why do companies make these hard to chew roundish shaped kibble instead of flat?! So disappointing!

I ordered this because one of my cats has diabetes, and thought this would help her. Well, within a day, both cats were throwing up. After reading the other reviews, I realized this is a problem with this cat food. I've switched to Evo with no problems.

After a crazy amount of time trying to learn all that there is to know about dry dog food and trying to figure out what the best dry dog food there is, I stumbled across this brand that I never heard of before, Wysong. I was surprised at how much protein and how little carbohydrates this kibble packed. I was reluctant at first in giving this chance, because I heard mixed things about high protein diets for senior dogs. However, switching to this dog food was probably one of the best decisions I made for my pooch. It is hard not to notice the sheer size of this kibble. What I mean is, this kibble is super duper tiny, but my teacup chihuahua had no fuss in gulping this kibble down.

I'm currently trying to finish off another bag of kibble, so I have been mixing this with her old dog food. However, she will eat this new kibble first, walk away, and return later to finish her old kibble. I haven't noticed any bad gas or diarrhea since I've been making the switch over to Wysong Epigen 90. I was worried at first because of some of the reviews that I have read on here, but I want to state that over the course of a month, I have not noticed any problem since making the switch. I don't think this dog food is expensive. I think it is relatively comparable to most priced brands of dog food and well worth the price … more
