Fish was a new "food" for our Golden Retriever and I was concerned that he might not like. He LOVES it. Fast shipping & free shipping. Great service.

2yo Australian Shepherd
Her coat has never been better, and I've fed a range of top quality foods. It's incredible how water just sheets off of her when she gets out of the pool. She's also down to one poop a day, which is good for her and convenient for us as well.

This has been a very good choice for our Goldens. Plan on trying the other 4 star flavors. Switched due to food allergies.
2. Jennifer on 10/21/2009, said:
Great product and a lot more food than you would think because the bites are small, almost like cat food. A little bit goes a long way.
Halo's holistic approach to dog care is based on treating the “whole animal,” using pure, natural ingredients in optimum formulation to stimulate the body’s ability to heal and maintain itself.
The result is a happier, healthier dog — inside and out. That’s why their Spot’s Stew has been the “Gold Standard” in natural dog food for 20 years.

Use a standard 8 oz measuring cup. Provide a source of fresh drinking water for your puppy at all times. Food intake may vary during gestation/lactation and may double or even quadruple during lactation, so feed the amount needed to maintain a good body condition.

The kibble is so tiny (like beebees) so it was perfect for a training treat that wouldn't fill my chihuahua up, and tasty enough to keep her focused! It was also a great size for the orbie treat dispenser that won't let go of anything larger.
The wilderness - it’s the call of the wild, the return to simplicity and oh by the way, stuff that tastes pretty darn good. These bold flavors come together and provide an X-rated excursion for your canine friend. So whether your idea of backpacking in the outdoors is your commute to work in your urban jungle or trekking the Lewis and Clark trail, this dish does not discriminate. Now, you better pack a night stick, a fresh glow stick and some freeze dried ice cream for this trip because its basically gonna send you to the moon. So ditch the skinny half caff latte and let’s go full throttle and howl at the moon like you want to get arrested. The Merrick’s say send some postcards (mugshots are cool too)!

Babies love love this stuff, Makes the diet stuff easier to tolerate.
The smell of Grammy’s house and her famous chicken pot pie is an unforgettable comfort, plus she doesn’t care if you watch Nick at Night all day. Our family loves dogs, and we’ve been sharing this gift with dogs around the world for a little while now and the votes are in – Grammy For President. She’s our number one seller because the woman can flat out cook, not to mention she took first prize in needle pointing at our local fair. This meal is sure to make your dog beg to move to Grammy’s, even if they have to eat their vegetables and massage her corns! Wash this dish down with some fresh peanut butter cookies and a cold pint of milk (not Skim but old school Vitamin D). Grammy sends her best!

An excellent well-rounded starting point for older dogs, but for best results, rotate with other Wysong Diets and fresh foods as described in the Optimal Health Program.
This food has made all the difference with my ten year old schipperke. Not only has he lost 4lbs, but he has returned to the activity level of a young dog. He has been on ysong since 4/08
Active Care - Healthy Joint Formula - Lamb Meal and Brown Rice - Dry Dog Food
What makes the Active Care Lamb & Brown Rice different is natural chicken cartilage and our patented method of obtaining it. Many dog foods have taken an easy leap onto the healthy joint bandwagon by adding varying amounts of synthetic forms of chondroitin and glucosamine then claiming to promote good joint health. Natural chicken cartilage provides the all-important GAGs in an all natural stable form so there are no chemical side effects. With natural chicken cartilage, Active Care was specifically created to maintain good joint health.

I have been feeding this to my GSD/Shepherd/Chow mix for 5 years, he was diagnosed with severe hip displasia and arthritis when he was 2. Between this food and supplements he is doing better than even the vet could imagine. It is great because it is appropriate for puppies to eat as well, so there has been no problem with having to get different foods when we got a new puppy last year. They both love it and it's great for them too!
2. Mary on 12/5/2008, said:
I bought this food for my dog who has joint problems with one of her back legs due to chasing frisbees. So far I haven't noticed a difference with it helping. Maybe I just haven't had her on it long enough to start working so I'm going to keep her on the food since she really likes it.

It’s time to celebrate. Your family and dogs have gathered around the table for one of your world famous cookouts (minus the burnt wieners and too yellow potato salad). Your prized beef and favorite side dishes are ready to be feasted upon. In Texas, we love beef as much as Americans love apple pie. So saddle up, put your bib, chaps on (whatever works for you), some extra deodorant because this dish is gonna make your dog sweat and let’s pop some fireworks. By the way who cares if it’s in the middle of winter (however, this would not be a good idea if your city has an ordinance against them. If so, maybe you can go out to Cousin Earl’s in the country or heck, move to flippin’ Texas) Muchos Gracias from the Merrick’s.

Pets today suffer from all kinds of food allergies and sensitivities. These can manifest themselves in the form of itchy or dry skin, ear infections, soft or sloppy stool or a host of other problems. Elimination diets are formulas which limit the number of ingredients while selecting unique and novel protein, carbohydrate and oil sources. Selecting novel proteins, oil and carbohydrates and limiting the number of ingredients the pet is exposed to, is the first line of defence against allergies and food intolerances.

Although I have a problem now, because both of my dogs were just diagnosed with duck allergies! One can only eat chicken now and the other can only eat pork. Oy.

A family camping trip is a rite of passage for some and a funny set of memories for many more. Bringing the family Chihuahua along for companionship is probably a better idea than using him for protection, even if he’s a long hair. However, no matter the size of the fight in the dog, a fresh fillet of grilled trout prepared camp side is the essence of an outdoor culinary experience that all canines should enjoy. This dish offers an alternative for the days your furry fellow is stuck inside salivating over the family goldfish in his urban suite. The Merrick’s would like to encourage you and your dog to grab a bag of marshmallows, a stack of carob bars and a box of graham crackers and go sing Kumbaya around the campfire.

Transitioning to Wellness: It is important to slowly transition your dog from his/her current diet as it takes a few days for the body to adapt to the new nutrient levels. To transition, gradually mix in the new food over a 5-7 day period, increasing the amount of Wellness each day, so that you are feeding 100% Wellness by day 7.
Determining Feeding Portions: : Looking at the chart below, divide the total cups per day by the total number of times you feed your dog per day to determine the portion size for each meal. Keep a clean bowl of fresh water available at all times. Wellness believes in feeding dry and wet food in combination whenever possible to help increase the level of water in your dog's diet.
Recommended Feeding Portions (Based on a standard 8 oz dry measuring cup)
Every dog is a little different, so optimal feeding amounts may vary with age, size and activity level. Please use the information below as an initial recommendation only and adjust when needed.

I really think I see a difference in my Cavaliers' coats.

My little Brussels Griffon loves this, and it agrees with her sensitive tummy quite well. I bought such a large bag that it should last her quite some time.

I was feeding another food which was higher in protein but my adult Border Collie did not thrive on it. My adult collie has a lusterous coat and gained weight on California Chicken which can be difficult for a border collie so I gave my new baby border California for Puppies and she is shiny and soft. Both of them seem to prefer the taste of my friend's dog's junk food over thier California but I'm guessing it's either added sugar, artificial flavoring, or some kind of fat. Just like I like junk food better than what's good for me sometimes. They still like the taste enough that they eat it all gone and seem really healthy and not too border crazy like on other higher protein foods. Plus it's one of the more affordable foods. Last but not least is that thier stools seem firm and they don't get upset tummies like they do with some other foods. I love this product and feel like I'm doing right by them.
