Excellent food

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We have 2 german shepherd dogs. Our soon to be 11 year old started developing food allergies about a year ago. It was suggested by our son to try the purina one true instinct turkey and venison that he feeds his dogs. We noticed improvements in just a few weeks and she loves the food. Highly recommend this food for any dog. Thank you for a great product.

Amazing dog food

I have five dogs 12 years old going down to 8 months. One has a very sensitive stomach that makes it very hard to find one food that they can all eat. Thankfully they all love the food. Definitely recommend to anyone that is looking to switch to a new dog food.

The only food we will let our dog eat

Since our Boykin grew out of puppy chow 3 years ago, we searched for reasonably priced quality dog food. As she has a sensitive stomach, this was the only one that she would gobble down and never threw up after. She can eat a Few pieces of any other dog food and she has GI issues immediately. The pieces of this dog food are not to big and not to hard to chew on, which is a big +. Once visiting friends they’re 13+ old dog would eat only wet food for past year due to dry food being to hard to chew - we were all amazed when we caught her eating our dogs Purina One.

Good Kibble for Dogs Who Can Crunch!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Compared to other Purina kibble, this one seemed a bit harder for our dogs to chew/bite, almost like it was a tougher kibble. For that I’d say steer clear if your dog has sensitive teeth/is older. Otherwise, our girls ate it up!

Found clump of food

We've been feeding this to our dogs for a couple years or so now, but the last bag had this big clump of food. Idk at first as my bf didn't tell me and didn't think anything of it as caution, but I said to stop feeding them and we will return it for $ back (tomorrow). I've heard of similar issues I think on Chewy but just to be safe I think I may switch foods which is a hassle as everything is so $$$ and we feed 4 dogs and many indoor cats. I think I will also reach out to Purina and hopefully get some feedback. To add, our dogs have not had any sickness or bathroom issues in the couple days or so they ate from this batch.

Both mom and furbaby approved

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got this food for my American Bully because of the fact that it does not contain any potato. My dog is allergic to potatoes. It’s so hard now to find something that is both good and potato free. My dog absolutely loves it. As soon as it’s in his bowl, he devours it every time.

Thanks for taking the time to share your concern with us. We're sorry to hear that your dog is not enjoying his or her favorite Purina ONE True Instinct with a Blend of Real Turkey & Venison Dog Food as much as before. Please know that in April 2023, we made a minor ingredient change. We replaced caramel color with vegetable juice to provide a natural source of coloring. This slightly changed the brightness of the kibble. We can assure you that the quality of this recipe remains the same. Providing high-quality and safe products is our number one priority, and we'd like to learn more and lend a helping paw. When you have a chance, please give us a call at 1-866-787-4621 (866-PURINA1). We are available from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. (CST) Monday through Saturday. We appreciate your loyalty and look forward to speaking with you. – The ONE Team

Grain flies and maggots

A few years ago we had an incident where we found maggots and these tiny white flies in our dogs food and we stopped buying this product well we decided to give it a try because before the big issue our dogs seemed to love it and it was cost efficient. Well what do ya know we ran into the problem again, and since we started our dogs back on it there allergies and skin irritations have came back. They are so sluggish and have gained so much weight. I am getting them off this food unfortunately I can’t do a transition because all the food I have has been compromised.
