Natural Balance Limited Ingredient Grain-Free Sweet Potato & Salmon Wet Dog Food, 13-oz can, case of 6

We've been buying Natural Balance Salmon & Sweet Potato canned food by the case for years. It was the only food that my sensitive GI bully could eat without issues. But our last several shipments have had some very noticeable changes: the cans themselves are heavy with a thick rim now, while there is less food in them and it's very soupy, whereas this flavor has always been a nicely firm pate consistency. Around the time we noticed these changes, my dog started having diarrhea to the point where we need to add pumpkin and supplements to his diet that we didn't have to previously use with this brand and flavor. I can't find any articles online regarding these changes, except for news regarding the 2023 merger of Natural Balance with Canidae, however, you can see that others have also noticed these changes from Chewy reviews. Now reading the other customer comments with similar issues, and our own new problems and concerns, we will be researching new brands.

I put my Goldendoodles on limited ingredient Natural Balance dt Zoey having a possible Chicken allergy diagnosis with her upset tummy. Both my Goldendoodles are on Natural Balance puppy limited ingredient. She is doing great on this food as well as Peanut with no Allergies. I put her yogurt on her food too plus I give her probiotics for puppies. Zoey is the dark Chocolate one and Peanut is the golden one.

My dog has kidney disease and is also allergic to chicken in all forms. So she cannot eat the food for kidney problems because they all have chicken in them. I think I read every can of dog food in the pet store, some would say duck but if you read the ingredients there was chicken broth in it or some form of chicken. But Natural Balance does not. If it says duck it’s duck or venison it’s venison. So I looked on Chewys web site and found the cans to be cheaper. And it’s convenient to have them delivered.

We struggled for 6 months trying to pinpoint what was causing our year old rat terrier to dig at his ears, under his front legs and cause eye lid puffing and redness from his excessive scratching. After several rounds of otic drops for his ears, rounds of prednisone, purchasing prescription dog food from our vet, and taking him off EVERYTHING and just feeding him canned salmon and sweet potatoes...WE DISCOVERED this food. After months of research we decided we had nothing to lose. He was losing hair around his eyes and his ears were red, bloodied and irritated more often than not. After 1-week of this product we began to see improvement and by the end of the second week his scratching was only sporadic. We have tried other N.B. LID food and he still reacts to the chicken and bison (he may have developed antibodies to those protiens). However, the fish/sweet potato has resolved his issue and we have been 100% for the past three months!! We have now introduced the fish/sweet potato treats and he is doing great!
