Hi Ella, that’s very sad to hear, and I’m glad your dog bounced back so quickly – a clear sign the food was the cause of her sickness.

I’m also sad to hear you received no response from Pet Food America, and although I’m never surprised about the lack of accountability it’s still very poor consumer loyalty.

The most recent 20kg bag I purchased on August 8th of large kibble Turkey I noticed was a different size, colour and consistency. I didn’t think much of it and gave it to my dogs for dinner. One wouldn’t touch it and the other was very hesitant. I persisted over the next couple of days, to the point where one of my dogs began vomiting all over the yard and house sporadically. She was also very lethargic and just not herself which was very scary. I switched out the PFA food, the vomiting stopped and she bounced back to her old self. I emailed PFA to find out what had changed with the recipe as I suspected it had, I received no response which is unusual as any issue I have had in the past has been promptly rectified. I decided to leave a review in the hopes that it would gain someone’s attention enough to reach out to me so that I could get to the bottom of the issue. 2 reviews were removed from the page, I left a third but I’m not holding my breath. Very disappointed and would not recommend.

He did not have any health issues prior (as I have always fed him pretty decent food) but I was wanting a lower-fat kibble so that I could still give him the occasional treat without going over his required daily calories. He is NOT fussy with his food at ALL, so saying he has no problem eating this doesn’t really mean much lol. Regardless, there have been no health issues what-so-ever and I will continue giving him this food.

Mr veterinarian take your sponsored pet food bias elsewhere. This is a review site for real people with real budgets who also love their dogs. I have found this pet food excellent with no issues and my dog loves it. As for the website attack. They have cut out the middle man like any other modern business and the only one who suffers is you. You don’t get a cut of their profits. Poor you. Honestly, all you have done is showed that you are perhaps needing more business?

Can anyone please tell me I’ve made a good choice ordering this product for my dog who suffers greatly from allergy.
His kibble I usually purchase is now unavailable.so this is what I was recommended

Bought a 2kg bag of the puppy formula for a puppy with smell and texture issues, intended to use it as a supplementary feed (for topping up vitamins and minerals).
She liked it less and less as the days went on thus by day 3 she wouldn’t touch it all, but one day 1 she was exceedingly farty and that was with only a sprinkle of the stuff over her regular food.

For those with sensitive tummies I would suggest to stay away from this one.

I can’t even sell this crap dog food on market place. Nobody wants it, I guess they have read all the bad reviews about it making dogs sick. They won’t give refunds on 20kg bags because they are the ones that make the dogs sick.

Spoken like a true Veterinarian!
Brett, which is not your real name, your group of people in the last 2 weeks are aiming to attack at least two grain free companies. Stalking on Linkedin, sending emails, messages, quite amusing. All the accusations above are 100% incorrect. Any claim made, is done so by customers. Not us. If our food has done (XYX) to a dog, it’s a claim made by a customer. One of them being “Cut the vet bills by half, or something along those lines. Then you vets are now jumping up and down about comments like these. They were just happy they didn’t pay $18,000 more and never solved the issue. We’re offended that you didn’t send us a Thank You card (Sarcasm). And yes, the food was the only change that was made & has every correlation between improvement & diet.
See, as a veterinarian, we would see that as a great thing. The dog isn’t coming every week for skin issues, or whatever the case may be, and focus on operations, vaccinations, blood tests and so on.
Pet Food companies don’t go complaining about what vets do. We certainly don’t. But we don’t agree entirely with what you sell. Not all. But that’s what you are trained to do as you have specific people coming in for training on how to sell the product. And it’s impressive. One example is that one particular clinic is showing that 25% of the clinics insane income is purely food. Explains why you guys are in attack mode. But we don’t go attacking you for this. In addition, we don’t attack veterinary clinics for offering free puppy classes so they come to that clinic instead. So a proffesional dog trainer which they need to pay doesn’t recommend anyone else. Or simply talk them out of vaccinations.
Going back to food, and that you are 100% incorrect, and we’re saying this as you have zero knowledge on how our food has improved the lives of literally thousands of pets. Our foods aren’t overpriced whatsoever. In fact, cheaper than a lot of brands. Short/long term. Some companies are passionate about supporting their own country (America) and that would include consumers. Yes, the pet food industry in America is great and taken a big chunk of the market in the last 8-10 years. So, that proves that the “Grain Free” American companies are doing something right. And the website look feedback, goes to prove you’re just a veterinarian. You have no idea on E-Commerce and we’ll leave it at that. While there’s a broader range of people reading this, this is a reply to so called Brett. Brett has no idea the graditute our customers have towards us. As they are attacking at least two companies, the style of response is targeted purely to Brett. Apart from a frienship, and that we’re in the same field we have zero connection from a business point of view. Owned by two different poeple with different states. And please stop the nonsense of articles being published every week on how bad raw food is.

The results and improvements they claim are completely anecdotal and there is no correlation between the food and improvement in dogs.
The quality of ingredients is below par and equal too what you find at most supermarkets.
They claim to be ahead of the game yet they aren’t supported by Vets nor are they recommended by any. Most reputable pet stores won’t stock their product, and that says volumes. Their website and story seems more like a drop shipping site then an actual major brand site.
I firmly believe their lack of range and “hot topic” style food (I.e. their implied benefits aren’t backed by any tests) just shows this brand to be disingenuous about their product.
If you are concerned about your pets health then see a professional and use brands that have put in the research into their products, there are so many industry leaders whom are making better quality food at substantially more affordable prices.
Just cause a brand claims American sourced ingredients doesn’t by default make those ingredients better. It’s like saying scraps and offcuts from America are better than a steak from America, it’s stupid they are claiming high quality ingredients just cause they are made in America, but they don’t disclose what those ingredients are so claiming American sourced Kamgaroo etc could mean they are just getting the scraps not suitable for humans etc… and to be frank most other major brands are made in countries such as America etc which actually use higher quality ingredients etc.
American made in pet food doesn’t hold the same weight that it does with other products.

To put a long story short, this stuff is ridiculously overpriced and doesn’t hold up to its claims. The quality of this food is on par with supermarket brands and is not worth even half the price.
You will find more negative reviews for this product than you will positive, but it seems this brand is spending alot of money on sponsored search results and paid reviews/articles, which to me shows how rubbish this brand actually is.
You don’t need a flashy website and all the fluff pieces if your product was actually any good.

All I have to say to this brand is “Do Better and stop trying to play on people’s emotions for their pets”
