Designed specifically for small breeds, it supports lean muscle, healthy digestion with proprietary probiotics, and vibrant skin and coat through omega fatty acids and superfoods. Made in the USA by a family-owned brand, this 28lb bag ensures your small dog thrives with energy and wellness inspired by their ancestral diet. ## Description Modern science proves that your small breed dog shares the DNA of ancient canines, like the fox. Years of domestication and excellent care have turned your dog from a shrewd and wary hunter to a trusting best friend. Although their DNA remains the same and their tastes demand something of the wild, their diet should provide them with all the proper ingredients and nutrition they need to thrive. Highly digestible venison protein and small kibble size make this recipe easy on your small breed dog’s tummy and teeth. Probiotics and prebiotic fiber help support healthy digestion, while a blend of venison, lamb, egg, duck and ocean fish proteins provide optimal amino acid nutrition. Rich in proteins and fat, this recipe provides the energy that active small dogs need. Your dog craves tastes from their wild past. Go ahead and give them one. Review: My dog’s favorite food - My dog loves this yummy, high quality grain free dog food. It’s the closest thing to organic food that I’ve found that is still a dry dog food. I prefer to keep my dog on dry food as long as I can. It doesn’t have a strong smell, and it seems to stay fresh in a container for as long as you need. My pup has been eating it for years and no digestion issues ever! Worth it! Review: Excellent dog food - My doctor has a very sensitive stomach, he has this since he was 6 months old. Happy with this product.

Is it just smaller kibble size or anything else?** A: Small size and just a few ingredients. **Q: Most recent order has a much smaller kibble. Did they change the formula??? My dog won't eat it.** A: That one TOW flavor (Appalachian) is especially for small breed dogs (like my miniature poodle) because of the smaller kibble. Check the description of the particular one you want to order -it should say if it is a small kibble. Amazon.com is always good about returns, so find a different flavor of TOW to try and return your order to swap it out. **Q: Is this AAFCO certified?** A: Taste of the Wild Appalachian Valley Small Breed Canine Formula is formulated to meet the nutritional levels established by the AAFCO Dog Food Nutrient Profiles for maintenance. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ My dog’s favorite food *by S***W on October 23, 2025* My dog loves this yummy, high quality grain free dog food.
