Thinking of buying this food for my 9 week GSD puppy. Is it really as good for that price?

I tried this food for my 3 1/2 year old dog. She wasn't too fond of it and I won't be buying it again. Kind of expensive but for that price, my dog enjoyed Wysong dog food better and that was the top dog food around and very healthy.

Ive fostered a couple puppies recently and I have choosen this brand each time. Its packed with nutrition and has pre & probiotics for the proper digestion and dha for brain development .n

My dog has severe allergies to many things especially grain so this has worked very well for her. There are a lot of no grain choices out there now though. Its a personal choice.

For the price, order wellness core (the brown bag orange lettering) same calories. Better quality

Yes, IMHO this food is the next best thing to a raw diet. My GSD is a working dog imported from Europe and he loves this food and he looks great with a shiny coat and lots of energy. I use the Amazon subscription and with my Prime membership I save over $10 per bag versus buying it locally, it's good stuff!

This food cleared up my lab's terrible allergies--it's amazing actually, we tried so many brands, including Wellness and other expensive ones. He had allergy shots and all sorts of medications, and for some reason this food was a game changer. I'm not sure for general needs but I can definitely give a thumbs up if there is an allergy problem, the cost keeps my dog from being miserable and keeps me from having to take him to the vet all the time and be given medications!

This food is not intended for puppies but for older dogs. I would check and find the puppy foods that Instinct has and follow their guidelines. I am very happy wit the food and I have five dogs.

"I use this product for my adult German Shepherd who has pancreas problems. This is a supplement to the deficiency in his enzymes and avoids soft stools and diarrhea. Call the company and ask them this question. They were very helpful when I spoke with them. If a phone number is not on the jar, you can get it from the internet. Check with your vet regarding any supplements for your puppies.Mary Anne

I feed this to my 9 year old dog and she does great. I changed to this food because I heard taking the grain out of her food would help with arthritis and she hasn't had an episode since. It's been almost 1-1/2 years.

I have used several dog foods through the years, this dog food is great and the best so far. As mentioned you need to keep an eye on portion control because my dog eats half of what she use to and her weight is healthy. Her over all health is good, coat great no allergy reaction. My dog has sensitive skin.

I will keep my dog on this food from now on! She is doing so well on it. My dog is 10 years old and has got some spunk back!

I have never used the original kibble but I use ocean formula all the time. I have a corgi, 27 lbs and about the same length as a beagle. She doesn't seem to have a problem with the dog food. It isn't that large (just under 1/2 inch) and doesn't seem to be very hard. Everyone tells me how beautiful her coat is and are amazed my dog is actually 9 1/2 yrs old. I contribute it to the dog food, fish equates to omega 3s. She is allergic to meat and poultry so all she gets is the ocean formula (they mean what they say, pure fish and no grains). I do give her carrots for treats. She is still pretty spry when walking and playing.

Hi Joe, I agree with previous comments, depends on the size of your puppy, but if you decide to purchase one, they are wonderful, Cassie absolutely LOVES it, I put peanut butter in for a treat and also frozen mince when we are away from home and she is in her kennel, keeps her occupied for hours. Also great for training ie fetch

Yes, I have fed this brand to my Great Dane pup since she was 6 weeks old; She has been growing perfectly healthy and loves it! :)

We have used it for our 6 year old lab since a puppy. We were recommended it by the breeder. She has maintained a healthy adult weight, with energy to be active and has a shiny healthy coat. I think it is high quality.

I believe the answer is yes, because I know a breeder that feeds this to her Lab puppies. They grow healthy and strong.

I would ask my vet before feeding ANY food larger than puppy food to a small breed 10 week old puppy. Better safe than sorry. Best wishes!

I have had good results using Iams proactive health puppy kibble. I found the 3.3 pound yellow bag. It has only jammed 2-3 times in the last 2 months.�� My adult dog Parker really enjoys it!

I'm not familiar with Blue's Wildlife, so can only say that I was happy with Orijen's dry food. I have since changed to Honest Kitchen dehydrated food and would recommend it, if you are looking for a change. My Pup has lost weight and no longer has gas. Love it

Who knows what is the right dog food ? The food you are using requires less food which might explain the weight gain so read the directions. For me it all comes down to what my dog will eat, and the reviews. If the dog will not eat it, why buy it.Something I feel the manufacturers have lost sight of is the taste. They are more concerned with marketing.You will have to be the judge on what works best for your dog. I think there is a fine line between $60 dog food which is what you are using and $30 dog food which takes care of the dogs nutritional needs. Good luck Who knows what is the right dog food ?

Hi I believe it is - it seems to last a long time and its pretty thick- my dogs belly doesn't get so dark wn I use it - wn I bought it I read that it's good for outdoor / active dogs and horses. I believe it also said it was good for dogs at the beach or pool going in and out of the water - It's better than nothing - anything to keep my lil man healthy and w me as long as possible

My 2 german shepard puppies (10 mos now) went from Pedigree to TOW. I transitioned them in 1 week with no issues. They had a scoop each 3 times a day so I would use 1/2 and 1/2 and by the end of the week went to a full scoop of TOW. I think the TOW is a very gentle food to the pups stomachs,
