Natural Balance Limited Ingredient Adult Dry Dog Food with Healthy Grains, Salmon & Brown Rice Recipe, 24 Pound (Pack of 1)

Abbi always delivers with care and consideration, nice smile too! Oh yeah, and my dogs like the dog food. Cured one from scooting.

I don't normally write reviews unless I really like something, and I have no idea how this stuff tastes.. butOur lab showed sensitivity to a lot of proteins and it took us a number of foods before we found one that seemed to work (a different highly rated fish-based food). Protein issues aside, she seemed to be in very good health and we thought the food was great. In the meantime, she had some other health issues. Frequent mucus build up in the corner of her eyes, sensitive skin, and she would spit up a small amount of water once or twice a day (a couple of tablespoons usually). She would much less often, spit up a lot more water. It was always just water though, not food, and not more than one time quickly, not like vomiting. This later issue got us taking her to see the vet. They concluded it was likely stomach acid-related and recommended we give her a little food extra before bed and maybe an antacid. This seemed to lessen the occurrence, but it never fully went away.Now just after turning 2, we went on a vacation she couldn't go on and left her with a relative. Just before leaving we were unable to get her normal food and were forced to find an alternative to get her through the vacation (the food from this review). It was also fished based and we wanted to see if adding grain back in might change anything for the positive. Getting back from the trip, the relative reported very few water regurgitation issues. We thought she was being nice so we didn't feel bad. Shortly after we were able to get her old food back and mixed the two to transition her back to it. Her water issue seemed to be more common again. We hadn't been back long though, so we didn't think anything of it. This time though, she seemed to have the issue almost any time she got up from lying down. Putting 2 and 2 together I concluded maybe the food was the issue. After stopping all other treats and switching to 100% the new food, the water issues went away.now a few months later she is back to getting her normal treats and is just eating the new food. I can't recall the last time she spit up water, I want to say it hasn't happened at all. In addition, her eye mucus issue is gone. She gets some on occasion, but at a level I would consider normal for any dog. I wish we had thought of this before now, it would have been great. needless to say, this is the food we use now and I couldn't imagine ever changing it. Her energy and attitude are unchanged and she is doing great.

The large bag is very convenient as I have two dogs and do go through a lot of food. The quality of the food seems excellent and I have been feeding my dogs natural balance for many years. They have a good selection of flavors which my dogs seem to love and when ordering through Amazon, the delivery is fast it saves me from going to the pet store and having to drag a bag out of the car and then back into the house. Great product rate price.

Both of our dogs have been raised on the lamb and brown rice. They have never had any issues from eating this and have been very healthy from this. Our 13 year old dog still is playing, jumping, and rambunctious as if she was still a puppy.Only issue is that this product is that price has continually increased and is almost becoming unaffordable for dog food.

I cannot praise this Natural Balance Limited Ingredients enough. I am using the Lamb Meal & Brown Rice formula. My two Border Collies are thriving on this Natural Balance kibble, and really enjoy the taste. In fact, if it's near meal time (I feed twice daily) they both come to me and remind me it's time for kibble. Moistened with a little warm water, the kibble stays crunchy and forms a nice little gravy. I had previously been feeding an expensive other grain free brand that had 4lbs less per bag and was higher priced. Then I found an article by a veterinarian stating recent studies by the FDA have found that dogs fed "grain free" food based on peas, lentils or potatoes are developing an unusual condition that can cause an enlarged heart. And it was seeing these enlarged hearts in breeds that were not genetically pre-disposed to canine dilated cardiomyopathy. I was horrified. I will literally pay any price to ensure my dogs are eating the very best quality food. I was paying a fortune for food that could compromise their health! After hours of checking ingredients from various dog foods, Natural Balance Limited Ingredient Diets Lamb Meal & Brown Rice is the ONLY high quality grain free dog food I could find that did NOT contain these potentially harmful ingredients. Peas, chickpeas, lentils or potatoes (even sweet potatoes) are all linked. “We are concerned about reports of canine heart disease, known as dilated cardiomyopathy, in dogs that ate certain pet foods containing peas, lentils other legumes or potatoes as their main ingredients,” said the FDA’s Dr. Martine Hartogensis. Dogs with the disease develop an enlarged heart, which then struggles to function properly. They can develop congestive heart failure, which can be fatal. I am so happy I found this article and switched my much loved Border Collies to Natural Balance Lamb Meal & Brown Rice. I hope other pet owners read this and research so they do not feed these other harmful dog foods unknowingly. The boys are thriving on Natural Balance. Their coats are shiny, digestion excellent, and they really enjoy the taste. Two very happy, healthy dogs with their vet reporting they are in excellent health.

Great for my Frenchie who is so so allergenic. My vet also approved. My french bulldog hasn’t like many other salmon products and this one is great with all the vitamins and minerals too.

My dog tolerates it well. No digestive issues.

This is the only dog food I could find with duck that had limited grains (corn, oats, and barley are in so many dog foods). It has worked for my Doberman after trying @ 6 other foods and testing for his sensitivities. Duck was the only protein he was not super sensitive to.
