Nourish your four-legged friend with a diet designed to optimize his wellness, not just meet minimum nutrition standards, when you fill his bowl with Wysong Epigen Starch-Free Chicken Formula Grain-Free Dry Dog & Cat Food. Not satisfied with simply going grain-free, Wysong Epigen is the first dry kibble diet formulated with a patent-pending process that enables them to create a truly starch-free formula that closely mirrors the diet your pal was biologically designed to eat. It contains unprecedented levels of meat—60% protein and 15% fat—along with real fruits and vegetables, as well as beneficial probiotics, prebiotics, enzymes, antioxidants, vitamins and minerals.
Key Benefits- Ultra-high protein, meat-based diet is formulated to optimize your furry friend’s wellness with 60% protein and real organic chicken as the first ingredient.
- Patent-pending extrusion process creates a truly starch-free diet that closely mirrors the diet he was biologically designed to eat.
- Also features real fruits and vegetables, along with beneficial probiotics, antioxidants, vitamins and minerals; rich omega fatty acids help support healthy skin and a lustrous coat.
- Made in the USA at Wysong’s manufacturing facilities with domestically-sourced, USDA and FDA-approved ingredients.
- Serve as a complete meal, topper or incremental protein booster; also an ideal therapeutic aid for convalescence, strength enhancement, immune stimulation, weight loss, or any condition requiring a high-protein diet.
NOTE: Wysong Epigen is made with unprecedented protein levels and a highly nutrient-dense recipe that may not be right for all pets. It is very important that Epigen be introduced gradually as outlined in the Feeding Guidelines in order to help prevent digestive upset, especially when transitioning from a lower-protein diet or one that has been fed continuously over a long period of time.

I was looking for a starch free dog food due to chronic UTIs. I had tried grain free dog foods but the UTIs continued. She likes this food and did not get sick. No more stinky urine. Love it.

Like the high protien in this food, used it to mix into our current food to add some variety. Definitely want to follow instructions on introducing slowly, I will be interested in purchasing again in the future.

Cat food reviews recommended it, and this seemed to have good ingredients, but my cats didn't care. 0 of 5 cats wanted any part of it. The Wysong was going to be their new dry food and was hoping to get them off their old stuff. I tried mixing it with their old dry food and they ignored the new stuff and ate around it (1/8 cup old, 1/8 cup new). I tried mixing it with canned food and they didn't eat either the new dry or the canned food. They let it sit there for 12 hours without touching any of it. They like their old dry, their old canned, and their new canned, but just not this.

I don't know how this will work out. I gave my mini wirehair dachshund 1/4 cup at one time. A few hours later he brought it up. Now I am mixing with other dry food 4 to 1 ratio. When I gave him the .25 cup he ate it no broblem. In speaking with Wysong they dont recomend using Epigen as the first Wysong food. I have the bag and will see. I give dry morning and wet evenings. My mini wirehair dachshund may be prone to Lafora based on pedigree. He cant convert starch to sugar so it will accumulate on brain cells and cause seizures. My thoughts are starch free food.

This was a definite fail for my cats, but it's still a decent food. They were eating the Wysong Epigen 90 which they all love, but it's twice as expensive as this one. Since they mostly eat canned now, I thought it would be ok to have a less expensive dry food even though I don't like the ingredients quite as much (hello, potato protein?) as the Epigen 90. Well, they ALL hate it, all 6 of them. They refuse to eat it, even when mixed with other food they still manage to pick it out and leave it in the bowl. I recommend it and give it 3 stars because it's still a decent food, very high in protein and nutritionally superior to similarly priced "grocery store" brands.

If you need a less expensive food and your babies will eat this, go for it. For me it's back to the Epigen 90 formula. … more

I'm fostering a 14-year-old diabetic cat who needs to be on a high protein, low carb diet. Technically, he should be eating only wet food, but he loves dry food so much that I don't have the heart to take it away. This dry food is the perfect compromise. It has much higher protein than any other dry food on the market (that I could find) and a very low carb content, as well. Even better, my foster cat loves it.

My kitty eats his Wysong grain free cat food daily. I will continue to feed him "Only the Very Best" for my very special fur baby "Boo"! I ordered the food one day and in a very short period of time, the food was delivered! I was extremely satisfied with the very timely customer service I received. I have every intention of remaining a very satisfied Chewy customer for a long time to come. Thanks so much Chewy!

I was very excited to offer this high protein no starch alternative to my cats. Neither one of them would touch it. I was shocked. They are not picky eaters, they prefer dry over wet, and they have eaten no grains, high protein dry and wet foods since they were kittens. Dont know what to make if it. It was very expensive, and I may have to either return it or donate it so it doesnt go to waste.

I reluctantly write this review. It is not about the health benefits of this formula. It gets high marks for that from The Dog Food Advisor and I feel confidant it would be good for my dog, but I can't get him to eat it unless he's gone without food for a day when I've been away. Even my family's 14-year old boxer won't touch it and she has a voracious appetite. Insert sad face here.

Dogs devour this in a heart beat........ the cat went on a starvation strike with this in his bowl.... no way, no way at all. Great food, would rather it state "non-GMO", but the plus is it does not contain soybean oil or canola. This is huge leap forward compared to the others out there with carbs way over 35% of their content!!!!
