Natural Balance Limited Ingredient Wet Canned Dog Food - Vegan-Friendly Plant-Based Protein - Complete Nutrition with Wholesome Grains - Soy-Free & Gluten-Free - 13 oz - Vegetarian Recipe - 12-Pack

Over the years my husband and I have really run the gauntlet when it comes to trying to help our poor little fussy, gassy, bloated dog to feel better. She has tried so many different special foods (for digestion, for weight control, for old age, sensitive stomachs) and with each new food we carefully introduced it into her diet with high hopes that this would finally be the one to help her, but we were always met with the same result of either maintaining her level of problems or increasing them. A few months ago she was feeling worse than ever and it was affecting her sleep so badly that she would just fuss all day and all night long. She would beg us to take her outside and we would take her for the longest walks (miles and miles) and she would either have diarrhoea throughout the walk or she wouldn't be able to get anything out at all. Either way, despite the lengthy duration of her walks, the moment that we had brought her back inside she would start desperately asking to go back out again. She also threw up regularly (even when she was on sensitive stomach food) and it would keep her up all night. The poor thing was getting next to no sleep. On top of that, she would go to her empty food bowl (after eating her full daily serving amount and then some) and would scratch at it and beg and plead for more food even when she was clearly too full already. Out of sheer desperation and desire for her comfort and our peace, I decided to try putting her on a vegetarian diet. I did all my customary extensive research and am extremely happy with the choice that I made! Her improvement was immediate and has lasted for the entire two months that we've had her on the food so far. It is truly remarkable! Her behavior changed in less than a day! Her walks last a pleasant and satisfying amount of time, she gets her business done right away (firm and normal), she sleeps through the night, she is generally peaceful throughout the day. Her bloating has gone down significantly and she is even starting to lose weight despite the fact that the food isn't even "diet". Here is what I've been feeding her: Halo Vegan Garden Medley Stew for Dogs (dry food) and Natural Balance Vegetarian Formula (canned wet food). It's is actually vegan as well, not just vegetarian. I use half the daily serving amount of each kind (so that the sum total per day is one full serving of food) and combine the two together thoroughly. Also, I split her food up into two feedings a day which means that each serving of combined food equals half of her daily serving size. I cannot stress enough the improvement that this food has made in her quality of life! I'm so happy for her and I highly recommend either or both Halo Garden Medley Stew and/or Natural Balance Vegetarian Formula!

Our dogs love this wet food, it’s great specially for dogs with various allergies. Been buying natural balance for years, dry food and wet food, no complaints from any of our four dogs.

Our current two dogs have been strict vegetarians, like us, for a long time, as have our previous five dogs. We supplement this with veggies and fried tofu or cheese slices or cottage cheese or tofurkey slices for variety. I often use the canned product to create a kind of gravy for our older dog. We mix it with the Natural Balance kibbles and might add a little canola oil, peanut butter, soy sauce or nutritional yeast or yogurt for variety. It’s a great product to have on hand to simplify meals for our canine companions. It also is not very watery so you get a decent amount of nutrition. Just to point out: Dogs can be healthy and live to be quite old on a vegetarian diet. Pumpkin lived to age 14, Flora , a black lab mix, to age 16, Sebastian, a pug rescue, to age 15, Oliver and Harvey, both pugs, to age 13 and 14. Now Levi and Honey, both from Green Mountain Pug Rescue, are thriving on a vegetarian diet. Dogs are definitely able to do very well without meat as l know from almost 50 years of having dogs on vegetarian food only.

My pet likes a lot and waits for the feeding

I will update this email as time past bye since im keeping close look at my dogs reactions to it. First let me explain this food is all my 4 pound and 7 month old Yorkie is eating, no treats or other foods. 2 months ago my Yorkie started having allergies reaction, her eyes got swollen and she will scratch herself to bleed. After the vet, injections, medications, special foods and a lot of money, I decided to give the vegetarian option a try. I personally suffer of gluten allergies and went true all the stressful and painful process of trying to figure out what was causing the reactions, I eventually after lots of reading chose to give my body the nutrients and support it needed to heal and strengthen my immune system, one specific nutrient was key for me and while I still have some reactions is by no mean as it use too before or when i was on medication, in my case im allergic to gluten and since is such an inexpensive ingredient is almost every where and in everything. So when my youngest pet started showing signs of allergies I knew what i was going to be dealing with. First the can was easy to open, it opens like any regular sauce or food can does, with a can opener. Second: is smooth, soft, smells like spam and you can clearly see real ingredients in it. I attach a closeup video showing the consistency , color and appearance of this food. Third (and this one i like a lot) Lady seem to love it, it got her back to pooping only once a day and not a smelly poop. This detail is key for me, the special commercialized pet food, not only is digested faster but what comes out after is more stinky than when feeding less processed food and real ingredients. Is like us, eat organic and not processed food for a week and watch your body react very differently, then go back to eating none organic and unhealthy and the first difference you will notice is the smell of your 💩😷 😂 Lady is pooping less because there is less to get rid of and her body is taking full advantage and using all this food, the special amd commercial food was digested faster since there wasn't much nutrients there to hold on too or use. Her mood change and she went back to being her normal happy self. 1 can lasted almost 3 days (she is a puppy and hardly weight 4 pounds) I need to give her at least 10 more days to give a good report in regards to her allergies, but for now we have seen some good hopeful improvements.

A sweet, long hair German Shepherd is a member of our family. To make a very long, years long saga short, we took her to Vet after veterinarian because of itchy skin and our poor girl pulling her own hair out due to the itching, she was tormented by the itching. We even had her blood tested, and she spent 5+ years on steroids, allergy meds and medication for the infractions that plagued her. She was so sad to see and we didn't know what to do to help her. We got recommendations to put her on a prescription diet, a raw meat diet and on and on. We were told that there were allergens in the foods we tried. She hated all of these food choices and after a day would pass without eating, she would be so hungry, she would eat it and then purge most of it. We were not happy and neither was she. FINALLY, I found a review online that could have been written by us mirroring our poor girls predicament and with the recommendation of this food, both wet and dry - applauding this food as a miracle. We thought at that point we needed a miracle and I ordered it but wasn't sure what to expect. When we put it down in front of her, she ate it and immediately after she stopped biting and scratching. Within a few days, her hair started growing back. As it turns out it appears that she is allergic to all animal proteins. Discovering this food is truly a miracle. Today, 2 years later we groom her beautiful long coat again and she is a happy girl. We are so grateful that she is no longer on any medication and that we discovered this food in time for her to have a wonderful life.

My dog was having problems with irritated stomach and bowels. Put him on this food, introduced slowly with a little organic white rice. Now he eats it without the rice and he has been good to go. He likes the taste and eats it right up.

This product is great -- my dogs have eaten Natural Balance products for years. My problem is with ordering it from amazon.com. I don't know how it could happen because I don't see any damage on the cans themselves, but when I open them, the dog food is noticeably dryer than in cans that I bought at a store. It's even crumbly! How can any canned dog food be crumbly??? It should be moist, like the thousands of other cans I've bought locally. None of these cans are past their expiration dates. I don't know if the problem is caused because of poor handling of the product or what. Whatever. It's certainly not worth risking my dog's health to save a few dollars buying his food online. My male dog has been on a vegetarian diet for 6+ years and this is a fantastic product. My female has been eating Natural Balance's lamb & rice for even longer, and it's great, too. The only store in my area that carries Natural Balance products is Petco, and Petco's prices for it are unbelievably high, so I thought I'd try ordering it from amazon.com. I will never do that again! Follow-up: I'd also ordered a case of Natural Balance Lamb & Rice canned dog food on amazon. Amazon sent the wrong variety -- they sent the plain Lamb formula. I know I sound absurdly picky, but my female dog has stomach issues, and the Natural Balance Lamb & Rice is the ONLY food she can eat without throwing up every day. Amazon did offer to send the correct variety and told me to discard the one they'd sent in error (I donated it to a shelter), but when I got the replacement, they AGAIN sent the plain Lamb formula instead of the Lamb & Rice. It's just not worth the hassle to order dog food online.
