- Is this food chicken-free?
- No. It uses deboned lamb as the first ingredient, but the recipe also lists chicken meal and chicken fat. Dogs with a true chicken allergy may still react.
- How do I switch my dog to this food?
- Transition over seven to ten days, mixing increasing amounts of the new kibble with the old. Owners who switched abruptly were the ones most likely to report loose stools.
- What is the LifeSource bit?
- They are small dark kibble pieces coated with vitamins, minerals and antioxidants. Some dogs eat around them, so the guaranteed analysis assumes the whole kibble is eaten.
- Is this a veterinary diet?
- No. It is a general adult maintenance food with joint and skin support, not a prescription diet. Dogs with diagnosed conditions should use a food your vet recommends.
- How does it compare with Blue Buffalo's chicken recipe?
- The lamb version swaps deboned lamb for chicken as the main meat and keeps brown rice and oatmeal. It is the better pick for dogs that seem to itch on chicken-based kibble.
- How long does a bag last?
- It depends on your dog's weight and feeding amount. A small bag suits small breeds or a trial period; large dogs will go through it quickly.
