Lab/pit mix picky eater

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] She seems to eat this flavor a little bit more than the chicken or lamb and rice. I'm still concerned she's not eating enough. I do not want to introduce any type of wet food for fear of her not eating the dry all together.

Tasty for a picky eater

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My dog is a picky eater. She has like benison since she tried it the first time, the only thing is that she gain more weight since she started this food, so I have to reduce the amount she eat and she doesn't like that.

Noticable difference

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] For my fussy eater, this food is a favorite! Even better, this food has made a huge difference. His eyes are clearer, his joints don't seem to bother him as much and he has as much energy as a younger dog. He has now entered the "senior" stage but he still acts like a pup. He keeps me on my toes, but I'll take it. We love him so much and want the best for him. Even though he has as much energy as a puppy still! Five Happy Healthy Tail Wags from this Chocolate Lab!

We purchased this on November 15th only to find moths flying around inside the bag when we opened it. It’s stored inside our house in not outside. It also had a powdered consistency this purchase. Which happens from time to time. We have been purchasing this food for over 10 years. Needless to say I’m changing brands.

We truly appreciate you sharing this with us. Moths have no place in your dog's food, and we want to make it right. Our cooking process and quality assurance measures simply wouldn't allow any sort of insects to be in our finished foods. In rare cases, insect presence may result from damage to the packaging after the product leaves our facility. We'd like to gather additional information to learn more and lend a helping hand. Please give us a call at 1-866-787-4621 (866-PURINA1) at your convenience. We are available from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. (CT) Monday through Saturday. We look forward to speaking with you. - The ONE Team

Purina One True Instinct

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My 5 Huskies love this brand of dog food. I go between the turkey and venison and the salmon and tuna. Both varieties seem to agree with all 5 animals which is not an easy task sometimes! They are all happy campers!

The only thing my dog will eat!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My dog has been eating this food his whole 8 years of life and loves it. He is a working/hunting dog that has an abundance of energy! This food keeps him healthy, alert, and always wanting more! Couldn’t recommend this food enough! It’s great, and delicious my dog says!

It needs a little extra

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We think it’s great, for an amazing price, but my pup feels like there should be less of the fake meat chunks and more of the triangle pieces. She also takes ages to eat it, waits until she’s absolutely starving or I add bacon bits to it. And she still eats around some of the larger meaty pieces. So that’s my suggestion. Make it smell a bit more appetizing and get rid of some of the fake meat bits.

Best food for our dogs

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My dogs cannot eat any other dog food than this. They are allergic to everything else. And this is the only food they will eat. They will turn their nose up at everything else. I don't know if it's what it's made of or what but they do not like any of the other stuff.

My dogs love it. No upset stomachs.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My dogs love it as much as the very expensive premium brands. No stomach problems but my Boston Terrier gas problems have not improved but I think that’s her breed’s problem. They seem healthy. My vet tell me to stay away from grain free food and Purina One is not a grain free type of food.
