I really love that when all of those foods that were contaminated and making dogs sick in 2012 and 2007, Nature's Recipe did not even make the list!! Besides the wonderful comfort that provides me, Hailey (my 7 year old Lab/Bullmastiff mix) has been eating this brand for over 4 years and she loves it! She is extremely healthy with a beautiful coat and no stomach problems or any problems for that matter. I love that they offer a vegetarian option, but she has eaten the other flavors/varieties that Nature's Recipe has to offer and does well with those, too!

There are better veg dog foods out there, but this is the only one that PetSmart carries, and is also the lowest priced. I've been feeding it to my dogs for years, rehydrated and mixed with whole foods, canned veg dog food, and supplements.

My observation, for what it's worth...

We have been using Nature's Recipe Vegetarian for a couple of years for all five of our dogs. When the kids went into the service we temporarily boarded their pets and somehow ended up "adopting" them because we have the acreage to give them room to roam safely. The tally now is two Beagles, a three legged MinPin, a Terrier mix and the AKC Shepard. We saw the real advantage of this formula, besides the fact that it does contribute to a healthy skin and coat, when the Shepard, who had a history of seizures, joined the family and began eating this brand with the rest of the crew. His seizures stopped and have not returned (knock on wood). He was on a well known animal protein based dry kibble before and the only difference now is the switch to Nature's Recipe Vegetarian. He eats cheese and other dairy (occasional yogurt), as do all the dogs, and has no problems with those so his seizures don't seem to be related simply to animal protein sensitivity. I have to conclude that there was just something in the other brands that contributed/exacerbated to the seizures, since he no longer has them.

I have a 5 year Westie who has suffered with skin and coat problems and I have been told it is allergies or animal protein. I put him on this dog food two years ago, and his itching and severe shedding stopped. I recently moved and all the pet stores do not carry this brand, so I bought a fish based food...did not work. I have to drive 1hr1/2
to the nearest Petsmart and I did..it's worth it.

Awesome product!

We purchased this dog food when our black lab's coat became very dry. He had white flakes and was shedding excessively. The vet suggested we add olive oil to his food. We decided to try this food instead. It worked wonders! Within days his coat was looking better. No more dryness or shedding at all and very shiny. Very pleased with the results. Have tried other supposedly "health skin" foods that did not work. Now a loyal brand follower.
