 "Suspicious" 2010-09-20
By D. Leschke (Tulsa, OK)
I was very excited to try this food. We have an older JRT who is not a finicky eater, but isn't crazy about dry food.

I was hoping to find another healthy food to rotate.

When my order arrived, it contained 2 rolls of Natural Balance and a 5# bag of Natural Balance dry food.
When I opened the bag of dry food, I gave her a few pieces to taste and she loved them.

So I mixed the dry food with the remaining other dry food in a large container.

Then I switched her morning food to the roll instead of her usual canned or pouch food.

Again, she loved it, but became very ill within a few hours.

She was throwing up and developed loose stools.

Our girl was completely listless and wouldn't eat anything but grass.

Today I switched her back to her previous food and she seems much better.

She's still not back to normal, but obviously feeling much better than yesterday.

I know it sounds like I'm jumping to conclusions, but I searched for complaints on this brand and found many similar and worse stories at [...].

We're not going to use the rest of this food. I only wish I hadn't mixed the dry food with another high priced food because now I'll have to toss all of it. I had also purchased some of their canned food. It's all going into the trash.

The food looks and smells great and our dog was nuts about it initially.
Just be careful if your pet shows any signs of illness after introducing a new food.

I'd rather waste a few dollars than risk the well being of our beloved pet.
Too many companies who make food and treats for our beloved pets have been compromising quality to increase profit.
Our pet is going to be fine. She hadn't eaten much of whatever made her so ill and I'm not going to risk repeating it.

In the future, I will research complaints before trying a new brand or just start making our own.

  
"Portion control" 2010-09-12
By Christine Kenney (MIT)
This product came on my radar when my dog's clicker training puppy kindergarten teacher suggested it. In a visit to the San Diego Wild Animal Park later that week, I learned their handlers use Natural Balance formula (and clickers!) to keep their cheetahs under control and in good shape.

This treat is great because you can chop it into much smaller morsels than dry kibble treats. Smaller treats let you practice more with smaller breeds before they get full/thirsty/bored.

Since the 4 lb roll itself is an epic portion for a small breed puppy (see img), I keep the bulk of it frozen and refrigerate about a week's worth slice in a sandwich bag for easy access.

  
"Natural Balance Beef and Rice Formula Dog Food Roll, 4-Pound" 2010-07-23

I have one of the pickiest dogs. He dislikes everything. The only things he eats are people food..........but not anymore! He loves this. I give it to him as a snack too and he can't get enough of it. I notice that his coat is shinier since he has been eating this.

  
"My dogs love this stuff..." 2009-10-16
By S. Dang (Los Angeles, CA)
These smell great--like smoked dried salame. Once my father accidently sliced up a few to prepare them for his lunch before he saw the words "Dog Food" on them. That would have been funny.

Actually I have tasted these myself (as I do with everything I feed my dogs) and they are indeed quite good. Not salty nor gritty. It's like compressed mixed dried sausages.

I grate these into a scoop of Natural Balance Ultra dry kibble and the dogs simply can't get enough. They go crazy for these as treats also. A healthy alternative to expensive high-carb junkfood treats that beggin strips, snausages, greenies, milk bones, puperoni, canine carryouts, etc...

You know the food is good when you can use it as treats...

  
"Tastes Great!" 2009-04-22
By Alan Brinton
My wife and I are senior citizens on a fixed income, though not as fixed as it was six months ago. If you are like us and looking for a reasonably priced and tasty source of protein in a well-rounded package with other vital nutrients, look no further! This stuff is delicious. Don't be surprised when unsuspecting dinner guests ask for the recipe. We just reply that it's a family secret. The only con I can think of is having to choose between the beef, the lamb, and the turkey. But why choose? Just buy all three.
