What is Taste of the Wild Canine Formula Dry Dog Food?
Taste of the Wild Canine Formula foods are hearty and nutritious meals for dogs of any age, size, or breed. Real lean cuts of meat and fish (certified hormone free and antibiotic free) provide highly digestible sources of protein, while sweet potato and peas are used to provide your dog with high levels of energy. Whole fruits and vegetables provide vitamins and antioxidants to boost your dog's immune system. This dog food also contains proteinates (protein compounds), which help your dog's body absorb the nutrients to get the most out of the food. Taste of the Wild is grain free, which makes it a great food for dogs with intolerances or allergies to grains.

Tip: Digestive upset caused by a diet change can sometimes be prevented by mixing some non-fat plain yogurt in with your dog's food each day during the transition. The live cultures within the yogurt will help balance the flora within the digestive system and minimize flatulence or loose stools that are sometimes associated with a diet change.

I have 2 golden retrievers. One is 5 and half years old and has always had stomach problems no matter what I tried. I read a lot on dog foods and decided to try taste of the wild pacific stream. His stomach issues are fixed now! Not to mention that both retrievers absolutely love the food. They both look and feel very healthy! I also switched all 4 of my cats to a taste of the wild food as well.
I have a standard poodle with tons of skin issues......didnt know it was allergies that was causing his weepy eyes and repeated yeast infections in his ears.....Took him off all grains and started him on Taste of the Wild and OOMG, skin is clear, eyes are clear, no more ear infections..and he has filled out nicely without getting fat.
My dog has a sensitive stomach the vet recommend a prescription and meds. At the advice of a boutique pet store I tried taste of the wild. He rarely throws up any more and doesn't need the medicine. His weight is excellent and coat is lovely. I would not feed him any thing else. This product has been life changing.
I have two mixed breeds - One part shepherd and one part pitbull. Since I switched to this food everything looks better on my dogs. They are more healthly, their coats shine, they run like they are puppies (they are both 9) - I should let you know I also add a big tablespoon of dog food that I make myself.
I originally bought this for my pitbull nala ; however my mom's mini shaunzer started eating it too. He was a small picky eater but he now love this food. his coat was grey and after eating taste of the wild he grew his black hair back!
I just bought the large bag of taste of the wild high prarie canine and my dog will not eat it, i mixed it with her old food and she ate aroung it leaving the new food. now today she did not eat anything
I have read that you should change your dog food every 3 or 4 months because of the different protein levels. I have recently changed to Taste of the Wild because of its ratings and of customer reviews and would like to alternate the flavors for my dog.

I actually buy 2 bags at a time each a different flavor. I give one in the am and one in the pm, have never had trouble with this and I've been feeding this to my Standard Poodle and German sheppart puppy for last year.
The Taste of the Wild dry food only comes in one size of kibble. However, Taste of the Wild Canine Formula foods are hearty and nutritious meals for dogs of any age, size, or breed, and is ideal for dogs of all life stages (puppies to senior).
