Diamond Naturals Adult Dry Dog Food Lamb Meal and Rice Formula Made with High Quality Lamb Protein, Probiotics and Essential Nutrients to Support Balanced and Overall Health 40Lb

So far so good! I bought this because I usually buy a different one but from the same manufacturer so I thought this wouldn't be a huge change for my dogs. It has been great so far. No change in digestion or their stool, so everything seems to be fine. This is a huge size bag (40lb) and I think the price is good for this quality of dog food.

healthy lamb and rice dog food sure helped my dogs itchy ears and they love it! Switched from beef and it worked!They bring their stuffed animals to their bowl to watch them eat it and it’s sooooo cute!

Canidea up the price and lowered the kcals per cup. This is now the best quality vs value option. A little more protein than I think my border collie needs but she's high energy so it's OK. She had diarrhea for a while over the switch but all good now. Hang in there if so.

I wish I could give different stars to the different entities involved!!! The food is almost the only food my dog likes and is a great value! Five stars for the food! 2 stars to Amazon for shipping arrival on the day they said but package with no foresight. And 1 star to whoever delivered it! More than half of a 40lb bag was lost in shipping and my trying to get the bag out of the box because I couldn't see where it was busted and 40lhs of dog food isn't easy for me to lift at 120lbs and over the hill! The food deserves more stars but I wish I could get it locally. This much loss makes it as expensive as Royal Canin! Amazon, wrap up the package in plastic, not brown paper. Use a box designed to handle 40 lbs at the very least, please. Or, provide a broom, mop, and maid to clean up the mess, plus bug killer for the porch and the exterminator to spray, hand soap, floor cleaner, etc...and I can justify the cost. But, I love my dog and will get him the food he loves and you know I will continue to order so you don't change. Bad business. Think I will ask a local store to see if they will carry his food.

I've raised 4 giant german shepherds on this food. I have nothing but rave reviews. To the all stages recipe. Their sensitive stomachs. The ingredients. It's a hard food to beat. I currently have a 8yo, 6yo and 4 month old puppy all on this food. Our other pup passed but lived his whole life on this kibble and random toppers here and there. They never turn down a meal and it also doesn't double in size in their stomachs and that helps prevent bloat which is huge in large/giant breed dogs. I will continue to use this food with every pup I own.

I have been making my own dogs food for 4 years but wanted to find something more convenient. Good dog food used to be $15 to $20 more expensive than this brand is in 2019 (currently $36.99). My home made dog food that I've been feeding my two dogs (20lb boston terrier and 40lb mutt) has been rice, chicken, sweet potato, potassium and sodium salts, brewers yeast and a multivitamin blend as well as powder egg shells for calcium (egg shells contain pure elemental calcium!). This food has nearly the exact same ingredients.I switched them both from my home cooked food to this food overnight, no transition at all. Neither of them had digestive distress at all. Normal well formed stools the very next day, and every day since. It's been 7 days and everything has been a-ok!There are a few advantages to this food as compared to what I used to cook from scratch. This has a better vitamin blend, more balanced macros, and includes a canine specific probiotic. Very nice additions. So in addition to saving me a few hours each week I feel it's providing a better nutrient profile too. Overall it's only about $10 more than cooking it myself but again, it's better quality and it saves many hours of cooking and preparation.I also bought the amazon Solima brand, corn-based food. My plan is to alternate between them every other day. This will lower the cost to even lower than what I was spending on homemade dogfood. Hopefully they accept and tolerate the Solima but I won't be attempting to introduce it for another week or so. In addition to lowering the overall cost of feeding I'm hoping it will introduce some variety they appreciate. Dogs, like humans, can suffer from dietary fatigue which can cause mental health issues. So alternating flavors or brands can help prevent that. It's never been an issue for them before but it provides another possible benefit worth trying.Update: Over a month later and the plan is working perfectly. I alternate this food and the Amazon Solimo food with no issues whatsoever.Transition notes. Someone posted their dog wouldn't accept this food and this is my response. I've been through this a dozen times and would like to share my experience for others:Adding treats was what caused your dogs to not accept this. When you transition food you have to let them get hungry. If they refuse a meal, put the food away and offer it the next day. They will be hungry enough by then to accept it. If you add a treat to the food they will never change foods. They will eat the treat and leave the rest. Like humans, dogs are selective omnivores and can easily, and healthily fast for long periods. I myself have fasted for 21 days with no ill effects. In fact, it's best to fast yourself, and your dogs once a month, at least. Enormous health benefits. But back to the point, offering treats as a bribe when changing foods was your sole problem. That's not how dogs work. My smaller dog is the same as yours in her behavior. Most dogs that eat the same food for a long period are like this. But once she's hungry from not eating for a day she will gladly eat the new food. I've been through this process more than a few times, and it works every time BUT only if you skip treats, biscuits and bones for 2 or 3 weeks while transitioning. It's just a habit and it takes time for them to adjust. Offering the treat makes them believe that they have an option, the treat or their main food. They are surprisingly similar to humans in feeding behavior. If you put salad, rice and beans next to a piece of pizza most humans will eat the pizza and avoid the healthy food. Same with dogs. So NO treats while transitioning. One final point. If you add treats while transitioning and they have a poor bowel movement then you can't be sure what caused it, the treat or the treat interacting somehow with the new food, or both.

My dog absolutely loves the taste, and I've noticed an improvement in his coat's shine and overall energy levels. Plus, this food supports his immune system and digestive health. It’s great to see him thriving and enjoying his meals. I appreciate the commitment to natural ingredients without fillers. Highly recommend Diamond Natural for any dog owner looking for a nutritious and delicious option for their furry friend!

Love this brand. Same quality as all of the premium brands but at a fraction of the cost!
