Tried it

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Our dog, Joe was having trouble with his digestion and digestion issues with his poops being too runny or being constipated so we switched him to PurinaOne True Instinct that was recommended to us by another pet friendly family. He’s been on it six months now and his stool has become more consistent and he really seems to like the flavor and the texture of the food as well.

Great ingredients

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I think this is a good dog food that I add to my dog’s diet. I like the fact that it doesn’t contain chicken since I have a golden doodle who seems to be sensitive to chicken. I like the protein level and like my dogs like the taste. I just wish it wasn’t so expensive. I don’t buy it every time I buy dog food. I rotate it when I buy the other Purina one dog foods.

Sailor's favorite

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Purina one true instincts is one of the best dog food products around. I have a large mixed breed dog who has high energy but also a sensitive stomach. I never have any issues with Purina One and I will continue using it.

Liked this more in the past

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used to feed this exclusively to my dog and switched to a different purina one. I recently tried giving it to him and I don’t know, I don’t think it was the same. It is still pretty good food overall.

Texture, taste and nutrition

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have had Siberian huskies since 1995. I show and compete in skijor races, so a perfect fit, healthy dog with a perfect coat in necessary. I have fed every food you can. Seriously. Samples at fog shows help. Recently I was a puppy camp for a prospective show pup and she came with Purina True Instinct. Multiples three inhaled it, licked the bowls and asked for more. OK, here we come Sam’s Club. Then I had another puppy camp. This one camp with Purina Pro Plan Performance 30-20. My newest show puppy said,” I WANT that. So I now feed 2 kinds of food and my dogs could not be happier. Sunny finished her championship at under 13 months of age. Healthy happy dogs, from the inside out!

This food is perfect for my dogs!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] All of my dogs truly love this turkey and venison flavored dog food. Not only do they love the taste and devour it at every meal, but with just one whiff they get excited knowing that their food is coming.

Very picky eater!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My Husky Bentley is an extremely picky eater. He just wouldn’t eat much at all. He has been like that since he was a puppy. It has been a nightmare trying to find high protein food that he likes. We have tried several! I did some research and Purina One True Instinct was one of the dry foods recommended. I mix his dry food with the Purina One Tender Cuts and he loves it! It’s a miracle!

Lilo can tolerate this with her sensitiv

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My French Bulldog is very intolerant to a lot of foods so we're trying this new one that does not contain chicken or beef I'm hoping that this will solve her stomach issues because we sure do like your brand of products thank you for all your research that you do

Quality food for dry dog food.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been feeding my dog True Instinct for years and it’s from a brand that I trust. I noticed that apart from the dry kibble it comes with dried turkey bites. Which threw me off when I saw it once get wet it literally becomes protein. My dog’s been healthy and she enjoys the food and I cannot ask for more from the product. I fully recommend this, if you’re looking for a better quality kibble versus the old fashion kibble.

Setters LOVE mix with tender morsels!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My Irish Setter female thrives on this food! The high 30% protein, with real turkey as the first ingredient, supports her active lifestyle and strong muscles. We've also noticed a shinier, healthier coat thanks to the Omega-6 fatty acids. It's a natural, nutrient-dense option with no artificial flavors or preservatives. However, one con is I believe my one female might be sensitive to the diverse ingredients, potentially causing minor digestive upset. One pro for my girls is mixed kibble texture with tender morsels is a hit, making their mealtimes exciting. Pro- palatable because they are picky eaters! Con- more expensive
