Not Their First Bag and Not Their Last

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This wasn't really a challenge for us because they have been eating Purina One Smart Blend for most of their lives and love it. I just couldn't turn down the offer for a free bag. Prince Poppycock, Shadow, Georgia Peach and Frisky say thanks.

not the same!

We’ve been buying this line/brand of dog food for the last year. The variety sold at Sam’s club is not the same as the bag sold with the same label at other stores. The others stores have chunky, meaty looking pieces, but the bag from Sam’s looks like typical kibble. Our dogs love the chunky version, but will not touch this food when we buy it from Sam’s Club.

Toby gobbles this right up!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We had a hard time finding a dog food that our dog would eat. We wanted something that the first ingredient was meat and found this and he ate it as soon as we put it out. This is the first thing we tried after puppy food and will continue to keep him on this.

True Instinct for picky eaters

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My 4 dogs , three purebred do great with the true instinct without breaking the bank. My Elkie and GSD have stomach and skin sensitivity, this food works great and my mix breed has Lyme. The grain free food helps keep her immunity up

21 day challenge

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is the first time I have tried Purina One, she loved it, I don't know how she knows it time to eat but she'll go get her bowl when it's time lol so it must taste good, I'll keep buying as long as she keeps eating, the price is fair and I feel good about feeding Purina One to my baby. Thank you

Love this product line!

I started feeding my Lab/Rott mix when he was about 2 yrs old (we got him at 11/2yrs) and he loved it! After he passed, my new puppy started on Purina One puppy then switched to True Instinct. He is going to be 8 in January & we always get compliments on his coat, teeth & bright eyes. Going to be making transition to Vibrant Maturity soon & am certain it will be great for him! Also feed 4 outdoor cats Purina One, feel it gives them some extra protection & they look great, too.

Dogs love it

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Wanted a food with no chicken but everyone says it's a good food and my 10 yo yellow lab with his other food would take hours to eat. This is gone in 30 minutes. Charcoal Lab that has skin problems and is a piglet it's gone in less then 10.

Chow time

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My pup is super picky about her food, I've tried the fresh food, I've tried the frozen, nothing worked until I tried Purina ONE True instinct, she doesn't hesitate to eat it, she doesn't leave the food in Her bowl for days

Only food my dogs get!!!!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When I first got Brutus, he came with a half bag of very cheap food. His coat was Greasy and smelly, And the skin was very flaky no matter what we did.. My vet. Suggested Purina one, I picked the true instinct turkey venison, within no time his coat was soft and shiny and just smells like a regular dog instead of a wild animal. We have two dogs now and they both seem to enjoy it.

Got maggots?

Just got a 36lb bag of the Turkey Venison blend last night and fed my dog dinner. Woke up this morning to my dog being sick. I found 2 maggots crawling on my wall and maggots in my dog food container. Dumped out half the bag and found more maggots in the food. I’ve fed my dog purina since I got her 3 years ago and never had an issue. This is crazy.
