Comments on: Pro Plan Dog Food Review https://www.petfoodjudge.com/purina-pro-plan-dog-food-review/ Dog food reviews / Cat food reviews Tue, 16 Sep 2025 15:58:07 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.9.4 By: Julie https://www.petfoodjudge.com/purina-pro-plan-dog-food-review/#comment-47020 Sun, 23 Mar 2025 05:06:49 +0000 https://www.petfoodjudge.com/uncategorized/purina-pro-plan/#comment-47020 It looks like this review is from 2022? The packaging has been updated for Pro Plan and they now also include a percentage for the main chicken meal ingredient, which I think is great. I think personally 3.9 is quite a harsh rating for pro plan adult which currently has 34% chicken meal, 28% protein and 16% fat. Royal canin when I look on the website it’s hard to find the information, though based on Petbarn it appears it has a slightly lower protein and fat percentage, as well as not identifying the exact type of ‘poultry protein’ or the percentage of it in the food. My dogs get the puppy pro plan chicken medium breed as part of a varied diet and it has 37% chicken meal/chicken mix. I think based on the above, pro plan actually probably deserves a better rating than royal canin, yet royal canin currently has the higher rating.

I think people are reporting other brands too. But no official recall as yet…maybe they don’t know they actual cause as yet????

You can tell Purina is made from quality ingredients just by looking at it, it’s not crumbly or overly powdered like some of the cheaper brands and smells a lot more appealing too. My cat loved this food so Ill probably buy it again when it’s on special as it is quite a bit more expensive than my usual brand, but worth the extra price.

Ran out of things to look at, while at a friends house Alan gave me the idea to look up reviews, I can learn some stuff and just generally lol at every good review Purina gets, facepalms included.

Wish I could look at the ingredients, they don’t appear to want to show them.

Wtf spelling haha. FARBALL FLOVOUR

Yes when you go to Pet Barn the Purina Pro Plan bags don’t get touched cause I go weekly I noticed the same 2 bags Pro Plan Sensitive Digestion still sitting there but the Puppy Sensitive skin/stomach is always gone but that could just the shop assistant telling the person this is good for dogs with diarrhea or if their puppy is scratching, cause there’s so many better kibbles Purina would be noticing business dropping….. in America Purina have worse ingredients our Pro Plan was up graded probably like you said no one wants to pay $35 x 2 kilos of crap.

At least their making an effort to be better, of course it’s because sales have dropped but still!
Dogs will be healthier on these new ones either way.

Although I know it’s super late and it probably won’t get seen by Petra since it’s not a disqus comment but hell that breeder sucked, who wouldn’t explain what raw fed actually is to someone whose new to it?

I’ve read a lot of comments and stories of people changing to raw necks or raw wings and thighs only and than having severe problems from it.

Raw isn’t just one type of meat, it’s several with pulverised veges and fruits, yoghurt/kefir, olive or fish oils, vitamin powders for dogs if necessary, bones and you get the idea, you can’t not tell people this it’s a very dangerous thing to do.

Hi Margaret sounds like your dog has food sensitivities & an ingredient is irritating his intestinal tract…When I rescued my boy he was having the same problems at first I thought he had Parvo….Patch has been diagnosed thru biopsies to have IBD & skin allergies.. Freshly cooked balanced diet is the best for these dogs….or a gluten free hydrolysed kibble like “Meals for Mutts” or “Ziwi Peak” wet tin or Air Dried if you don’t want to cook & freeze meals, I feed kibble for breakfast & a cooked meal that has been thawed over night in the fridge for dinner….This way Patch isn’t eating kibble all the time & his stomach/bowel has a break from kibble & he gets some freshly cooked meals…

I certainly won’t give him any more Purina. Home cooked food seems like the best option for the time being, at least until he’s fully recovered.

Hi Margaret, this can certainly be caused by diet. Pro Plan may be top of the range as far as Purina products go, but that doesn’t mean it’s a good product. Given the severity of this condition I’d stop feeding Pro Plan immediately. Switch to one of the foods on the best rated list, perhaps something like Ziwipeak or K9 Natural for the short term instead of a kibble, or investigate home made diets. If the condition continues make sure you keep your vet involved.
