I switched my westie to this food from Royal Canin Gastrointestinal food as it was getting too expensive. He has had great success with the 10 day transition. He is absolutely loving the taste and looks forward to his meals. He has bad acid reflux and this food is not causing any issues. In fact he has been more playful with his sister which tells me he is feeling good. This food has disk like kibble the size of a thick dime. We soften it with water overnight to help with his digestive system and feed it out of a slow feeder bowl just like the previous food. As his parent I feel confident in the clean ingredients. The no corn in this food is great for his sensitivity. A+ for Natural Balance. I've used Limited Ingredients lamb and brown rice before and it was great for allergies in dogs.

I was looking for a food that my large dogs (3 @ 140 lbs) would not eat as much and still feel satisfied. I heard about Fat Dog and tried that with success and then found this, same manufacturer. The dogs are eating less compared to Science Diet Light, and they seem to like it. So a good alternative.

I have used natural balance for all my past and present animals. My dog being a senior was having a few accidents in the house. I switched him to this particular one and they've stopped. I'm not sure why but it's the only thing different in his life and it's our 3rd bag.

Outstanding dog food

Always use the auto ship for dog consumables. My dog is now a little under-the-weather, and I will be ordering from Chewy, my Vet's recommended dog food.

We recently moved and needed to switch our 5yr old mix to a new food. After a lot of research, we decided this was close in main ingredients and a step up in quality for her. The transition was super easy and she had no issues.

Great for my dog

Both of my dogs are pretty picky eaters but this is a food they both enjoy! I used to need to add toppers or anything to try and get them to eat, they both willingly eat this food plain. My shihtzu (as picky as they can be) generally eats this food plain with me having to add toppers occasionally (which is so rare for him!). Love the ingredients in this food and my dogs do too.
