We moved to another state and could not find Blue Seal Dog food, unless we drove for miles to get it. We decided to purchase Diamond Naturals and my dog absolutely loves it. Like Blue Seal, our dog eats and feels satisfied. She doesn't have the need to eat more and more like the cheap store brand dog foods which in turn made her poop more and more. Her coat has an amazing shine. For the price and free shipping this is worth it.

It seems like a really good dog food. One of the vets at the animal hospital that I work for recommended this. I used to feed my dogs Science Diet Sensitive Stomach (2 of 4 doctors at our hospital feed SD to their own dogs) but when employees were no longer given massive discounts on SD, I switched to this dog food since its about the same price as regular SD. science diet always seemed to make my beagle's poop mushy, although my other big dog does well with science diet and has firm poop. One of the other vets (who is more holistic) suggested this food to me since the ingredients are more natural and not from corn or meat by-products found in Science diet, and she preferred it over Science Diet ingredient and quality-wise. My beagle's poop is no longer mushy, and both my dogs are on this diet now and they seem to love it.

I switched to this food from buying Newman's Own Organics Adult Dog Food Formula, 12.5-Pound Bag with subscribe and save through Amazon when I needed something less expensive, but still wanted a dog food with meat as the first ingredient. Not an easy feat! So many foods I found at stores advertised catch phrases like a "natural" and "organic," but still started with a non-meat ingredient.

I found Blue Diamond at a great Austin grocery store in bulk for about $1 a pound and decided to make the switch. My dog isn't a picky eater; he loved the new food, but he'd probably get excited about anything different. When I moved out of state, I was afraid I wouldn't be able to find this brand, but Amazon saved the day again! Now I'm paying about 79 cents a pound for the beef flavor (which he likes just as well as the lamb) vs. $1.76 for the Newman's Own.

The only downfall: I think this food may have given him bad breath - I noticed a certain oral aroma that seems to have started about the time we switched, but I'm not confident enough to say it was definitely from the food. Still, I'm giving him Proden Plaqueoff Animal now. It apparently takes a long time to work, but I think I've seen a bit of improvement over the last few weeks. Plus it's supposed to help with his plaque, so if bad breath is an issue on this food, try that.

Price per lb + quality of ingredients have me and my 155lb Newfoundland loving this stuff. In today's economy it's nice to not skimp on the dog while still keep things affordable.

What this stuff reeaaallllyyy needs is a subscribe and save option!

Great dry dog food for the price. My dog eats enjoys it, and the ingredients are healthy. It is fortified with vitamins and is definitely a great deal for $32 for 40lb bag!

My wife and I were picking up dog food from the local stores because we really didn't think we had the money to afford better quality food for our two dogs. We were very excited to find this food which is much better quality than what we were getting although I realize there is much better out there. Our Lab has actually put on weight so we have lowered her daily amount. This whole bag lasts us a month with a lab and a beagle/Shepard mix (medium dog). We thought we might be able to decrease the amount they were being feed once we moved to a better dog food, but we were not expecting to do so on the start of the third week. This dog food will be something we order monthly. Our dogs love it, there is less mess outside, our lab's coat looks great (and I think the other just needs a bath) and we have seen a lot less scratching from the lab. Her sores (hot spots) have healed and she is doing much better!

I recommend giving this a try! We love it!

Actually, I wanted to buy a different, cheaper, more pounds per sack type of dog food for my dog, but she is a picky eater and I thought I would see how she liked the Beef Meal & Rice Formula. My current dog only weighs in at 20# so she doesn't eat much and at ten years old I thought she just might need the extra energy benifits. I have not been dissapointed. Anytime she is being fed this dog food she does a little 'happy dance' that tells me she really likes this and it makes me feel good to know that she thinks I am feeding her the best there is.

I have fed Diamond Naturals dog food for a long time. It has high quality ingredients that my dogs love. IMO, if you are feeding a dog with allergies I wouldn't use ANY beef based dog food. That is why diamond has the lamb and rice version. My dogs don't have allergies but I feel the lamb & rice has, IMO, better all around ingredients.

Have 2 rescues and just switched to this according to other reviews. They ate it up and the price was right.Diamond Naturals Dry Food for Adult Dog, Beef and Rice Formula, 40 Pound Bag

We have 3 large breed and one medium breed dogs in our household. Wanted to find a quality food they all liked, could digest well, and have no skin problems. This one seems to be fitting the bill so far. And they ALL just love it! Good quality for a fair price, thanks Amazon.
