Mixed Feelings
Date: November 14, 2009
"While this food has been great for some of fosters I've taken in, it has not worked for my 6 month old Black Mouth at all. While he gobbled the food up, he constantly had horrible diarrhea and gas. Switched him to Nutro Max Puppy and within two days has shown marked improvement. This food does not seem to be easy on sensitive stomachs."

Nature's Recipe
Date: August 2, 2009
"I was feeding my American Bulldog puppy Pro Plan puppy food, however, he wasn't eating all his food and his ribs were showing which is never good So I decided to do research on a new dog food. I ran across Nature's Recipe and i must say my puppy loves it and has filled him out.
Good Choice!"

Finn loves this!
Date: March 23, 2009
"I have a chihuahua puppy born 12/25/2008. This is the first and only food he has ever eaten! His breeder soaked this food to make it softer as he transitioned from his mother's milk to eating food on his own. I researched food on my own and finally chose this food not only because of the breeder, but also because of the healthy ingredients. Finn loves this food! The small pieces are easy for him to manage. I like the fact that it is crunchy because I think that is good for his teeth - especially while teething. We also supplement his diet with an occasional wet meal of the same brand. Finn loves that as well"

Excellent Food!

"When I adopted my terrier mix from a shelter a PetCo employee suggested this food because I was nervous how a new food would affect her tummy. It's the only food she'll eat and she loves it!"

My puppy loves this food
Date: August 28, 2007
"I got a new puppy few months ago and wanted to get the best food for him.With so many choices I didn't know where to start.So by a sugestion from a friend I got Nutro Ultra puppy food which my puppy didn't like at all so I decided to change .After doing some research I found this one and my puppy just loves it. The first time I gave it to him he ate it all. His stools are small which tells me he is getting all the nutriens he needs. My puppy is happy,so that makes me happy. I would recomend this brand to my friends."

Great Product
Date: September 18, 2006
"I have used Natures Recipe products for over eight years and have always been very pleased with all aspects of their food. My dog has had no digestive, skin or health problems through his life and his waste is smaller and more maneagable as a result of the product (he is a large breed)."

Good for him!
Date: December 6, 2005
"When I got my Boxer I read a lot about what kind of dog food I should get him. The best advice I got was look for something with the top two ingredients as meat, no corn (a lot of boxers can't digest corn) and not too much white rice etc. Tyson has had no problem digesting this food. It's great!"

Great Food no Filers!
Date: November 27, 2005
"We searched very hard and did a lot of research in order to find a meal for our two dogs that had no corn and no filers. In Nature's Recipe we found a product that we liked and that most importantly our dogs love to eat. It must have a wonderful flavor, because they think it is a gorument meal. I use the Puppy and Adult varities. Both are great, and healthy for our dogs."
