Skin + Coat Care Salmon Large Breed Dry Dog Food with Grains, Chicken-Free, Healthy Kibble, Glucosamine & Chondroitin for Healthy Hips & Joints, for Adults & Seniors, 25 lb Bag

I feed this to 3 Golden Retrievers. Keeps them in good shape. They don't itch at all and that's all they did on their old kibble. We are going on 3 months of Go Large breed and their coats are so soft!!!

My dogs are allergic to every kind of dog food I’ve tried, even prescription food. But they tolerate this brand in salmon & love it. I’m so happy with Go!!!!

My dog has a very sensitive stomach and is also very picky about his food. Although we have always fed him good food, I felt that he needed some variety. I read about this new brand with super high quality ingredients. I did some research and found that other dog parents with dogs with sensitive stomachs were not only tolerating this food but their dogs were loving the taste. As soon as I opened the bag my pup was right there waiting to see what I had for him. I gave him one large morsel and he ran to the carpet (which he does with treats) he ate it quickly and was back for more. Apparently he likes it so much that he thinks it is a dog treat. I will mix it with his old food to get him used to the change but so far so good.

Pros: 1) This product is truly well-balanced - not just packing a lot of protein, but also containing a balance of healthy foods like oatmeal, potatoes, whole oats, de-boned salmon, apples, carrots, cranberries, 2) A bunch of vitamins to make it even better for your dog. I especially like that it has glucosamine for heathy joints 3) Made in Canada to high standards for animal feed 4) A good dog food is only good if your dog will actually eat it. And in this case, even after two weeks of feeding, my dog goes nuts for this food! The less-than-perfect 1) Real food costs real money, and this is fairly expensive food, costing about $3/lb. While that is pretty expensive, I think that my pup is worth it and invoke the "you get what you pay for" principal - In this case, good food and balanced nutrition.

My dog ate this food immediately. I like to rotate proteins and formulas for her. I use the same method near the end of every bag.... I make a mix of about 50% new food in with the old food and feed the mix until the food is gone, then pour in 100% of the new food into the storage container and repeat the process when it gets low. I especially appreciate this salmon formula does not have a stinky, fishy odor when I open the storage container to feed her. And I like that there's no BHA/BHT preservatives. Pricing for this food is on par with other brands I feed her. I will purchase this brand again and add it into her rotation schedule. It's nice having a dog that does so well with variety in her diet. Very pleased.

With dog food pricing soaring along with everything else on food shelves, I've been finding it difficult to keep buying kibble. With all the social medial about how kibble is processed, it's another reason why I'm struggling with justifying a kibble pricetag over raw food and veggies that I can make myself for the same price and my dog gets a healthier and more robust diet from it. Starting with price - at $75 a bag, with four pups in my house, the kibble bill easily comes out to $300 per month. When I fed them for a week on nothing but cooked beef, chicken, and vegetables, their bill was only $15. And that was using 80% lean beef. The only argument to make here would be the cost of convenience - I don't have to cook kibble and with preparing food, I'm spending about a day preparing food that will last my pups for about 10 days to up to two weeks. Secondly, the ingredients are great, but what I'm learning about kibble is that the processing squeezes all of the nutritional value from the food, leaving them with empty calories. While they enjoyed the food, I think it's the crunch value that does it for them. See, when I cook their food, it's soft and there is no crunch factor which I know they enjoy. So, the kibble probably tricks them into thinking their eating something fun, which they are in a sense, but it's not nearly as good for them as when I make their food. However, judging this from a purely dietary perspective, I couldn't offer a perfect rating because of how the food is processed. I think the proof is in the weight management and the pups' hunger throughout the day - when I feed them, they aren't asking me for treats, however on kibble, they are constantly looking around the house for scraps or stray bits of kibble. Not a good sign.

From all the rest of the research I have done this appears to be a very reputable brand made in Canada. I'm a little apprehensive about buying online dog food as my baby is just the world to me so I care about what ingredients in the source that it comes from this one does well in that category Canada appears to have stricter laws when it comes to dog food so I tend to trust it a little bit more than others. My dog love this flavor from the start it really helped his coat and being that he's very picky but wasn't with this one it was a win-win for us

I slowly introduced this kibble to my pup as we were running out of his normal brand. The introduction went well not odd stomach issues and he was still liking his meals every time he ate this kibble. The kibble is pretty standard in terms of smell nothing too overpowering and I noticed that my pups breath didn't smell horrendous after eating this consistently. While is food is more on the steeper side for most dog food I did notice less sheading from my terrier after a few weeks. The kibble bits are on the larger side, so I don't recommend this for smaller dogs.
