Tell you what guys, this food is definatly worth a try .

That's what I feed my two. I mix it with Wellness Chicken and they love it also. Only thing is I have to get is shipped and the shipping is about the same as what I pay for the food.

Did you see this posted yesterday? I home cook, but if I were feeding kibble, this would certainly put a stop to that.

I have seen stuff about this before.. But how do you what brands?

I had MiLeigh on Royal Canine # 27 for mini indoor but she hated it. I did they same as above an did smaples but Mi went crazy over the LA food.. I order a system and the treat that came with it cuz she went nuts over it. I can't wait for it come in

I would think large manufacuters would use that but not something like LA rght? I truely believe as Linda is a yorkie mommy as well she wouldn't suggest us a food to harm our babies..

sawyer has been on this for about three months, and we love it. I have tried many of the other suggested foods for him; but nothing gives me as much confidence as this. If you read the ingredients, you will find it is nothing but top quality. I was feeding merricks before. Sawyer sometimes got loose stool with that. He has had great results for the last three months, and he loves it. I would highly recommend it.

My girls were on Royal Canin Yorkshire food and doing ok. Alyssa has skin allergies and was scratching and biting her skin. I switched to Canidae after doing research on various dog foods. We loved the Canidae and Alyssa's scratching stopped. We were completely happy with Canidae and could purchase it locally at the dog boutique. The cost was actually less for Canidae than the Royal Canin at PetSmart.

Linda then suggested that we try Life's Abundance. My girls love it. That is all they eat. We have purchased two small bags and last time we ordered the 20 lb. bag. The girls loooooooooooooovvvvvvvvvvvvvveeeeeeeeeeeeee it and are doing well on it. The kibbles are small enough that they can eat them comfortably. To them they are almost like treats. My Emmy loves them so much that she will take a mouth full (3 or 4 kibbles) back to her doggy bed and hide them. I guess she is saving up for a rainy day or when mommy forgets to order their next bag of LA. (They do have auto ship but I haven't done that yet.)

My only complaint is the cost. The food is reasonable but the sales tax and the shipping are a little much. The food is such an excellent quality that I just ignore the tax and shipping and order it anyway.

I hope to try the shampoo and conditioner in the near future. My girls like the treats but they are fairly large. Wish LA made smaller treats ...perhaps the size of their kibbles.

Life's Abundance is the best. It is worth the extra cost to know that your furbabies are getting the very best. I would have no second thoughts feeding either Canidae or Life's Abundance.

.

I wonder if this s what Mi has.. She is constanly itchs and bitein we have checked her over sooooooooooooo many times and we don't see fleas and my other dogs don't scratch like she keeps doing.. I'll be so happy when my order getts her then and i can get that food out of her tummy!! and hope to god make that itch go away...

the treats crumble really easy so i just crumble it in my hand and let her eat out my hand.. But small ones would be good too..

Since this thread was supposed to be from those that ACTUALLY feed the LA food, please rest assured that there are only human grade ingredients in the LA food and treats.
I had the same concerns about the kibble but after doing tons of research, we found that the LA has the highest quality of ingredients. All of the chicken meal is only made from the chicken breast...not the whole chicken like some kibbles. There are 90 ingredients in each kibble so it is very concentrated. The vet that formulates this food is a holistic vet and is very hands on when it comes to her products. I am in weekly conversation with her. Unlike mose commercial foods, how many can say that they actually talk to the one that formulated it?? I can call Dr. Jane or email her and she will respond to every question without hesitation.
Here is a little bit about Dr. Jane:

First and foremost, Dr. Jane is the ultimate pet person. She shares her life with a dog, a goat, two horses, a monkey, and two cats. Her pets are her family and she is dedicated to their health and happiness. Dr. Jane knows you feel the same way about your pets and she has devoted her life to the health and wellness of our precious companions.

Dr. Jane is a highly respected and nationally recognized holistic veterinarian. She is the author of three national books on pet care and nutrition and has served on professional boards including the Cornell Feline Health Center. Dr. Jane served as the President of the Veterinary Medical Association in NYC and was appointed by former Mayor Rudolph Giuliani to help start one of the largest animal shelters in the United States. She has also appeared on many network television and cable programs and numerous radio stations as a veterinary expert.

Dr. Jane is responsible for TrilogyOnline's product formulation and development, and she consults regularly with pet industry experts to ensure our cutting-edge formulas meet the highest standards for quality and effectiveness.

Dr. Jane takes personal responsibility for every product and stands by them 1000%. Many of the other brands are manufactured by corporations and bottom line is their guide. The LA food may be a little more expensive but we feel that it is worth every penny to make sure that my babies only get the very best ingredients. The manufacturing plant only makes the food for their customers so the food is super fresh and delivered straight to your door. It doesn't sit on a store shelf or manufacting warehouse for who knows how long. With the gas prices, it is a small price to pay to have everything delivered to us personally. This way, anyone in the USA can get this food delivered to their babies.
Also, all the ingredients come from trusted American sources. Many of the commercial brands continue to get their ingredients from China even though they claim to be made here. LA is an open book and will share any information about what is in their products and where they get them. I trust my babies with all of their products without hesitation. We were customers long before i became a rep.
I would also like to share an audio from Dr. Jane with anyone that would care to listen. Here is the link:

click here to listen to Dr. Jane Bicks audio.

There is also an excellent video to watch..just click on this link and then click on the littl puppy and kitten
video

I am fully confident that these products are completely safe. This company employs numerous safety and quality controls to ensure the highest quality products. The ingredients and foods undergo multiple tests, throughout the course of the manufacturing process.
All of the more than 5,300 recalled pet food products included contaminated ingredients imported from China. Again, none of the LA products include these contaminated ingredients. In fact, they have never used these ingredients, and they never will. The LA foods, treats and supplements include only human-quality ingredients sourced from trusted U.S. suppliers.
For a comprehensive list of recalled pet food products, we encourage you to visit the FDA’s web site at http://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/petfoodrecall.

Please know that they remain absolutely dedicated to providing products to ensure the long-term health and happiness of your furbabies.

To those that homecook or feed raw, that is wonderful if that is what you want to do. I personally wouldn't do either one since i wouldn't know if my babies were getting everything they needed nutritionally. This LA food is the best kibble we have found and we tried them all!! My girls were the pickiest eaters in the world and this kibble was their favorite of all. I feel confident that they are getting everything they need nutritionally and it is very convenient. The kibbles are small too which is perfect for our little baby's mouths. Many of the other brands were ruled out because their kibbles were too large.
I know that my girls will have the best opportunity for a long and healthy life with this food cuz i want them to live forever!!

Sorry this was so long but i wanted to make sure that everyone had the information if they wanted it. if you need more information, i'll be happy to provide anything that you need.
HUGS!!
XOXO
Love,

Hi...When I got my two boys, I checked around and asked lots of questions....We started them on Canidae. It is a great food....But the boys were not showing any excitement or even interest in their food especially Bennie....And I was concerned about that- He is only 4 lbs...So I talked to a couple people and was lead to Linda. She sent me several samples....Said to try them and see what we thought....Well, let me tell you, both boys went nuts over it...I had started them out easy so they would not get an upset tummy from the change in food...Which never happened....They are so happy at feed time....They love their food....

Another convenience for me is LA has an autoship program...There is a savings by having it automatically delivered to my home....I do not have to go and get it....So not only do I not have to go and buy it and pay taxes ...I get a SAVINGS too...They email me about a week before they ship it to me to remind me...That way if I want or need to make any changes I can....

As for the treats, they are great...The boys love them and yes I wish they would come smaller but they break easily...Never have any left overs...

So our household is very pleased with LA....We buy the 20 lbs...UPS delivers it right to the front door...

BTW, they also have a Daily supplement that you can get...We use them...They are great...Boys think they are getting another treat....

Yes, we tried it, Tricksie does not care for it, the pebbles seem to be to large for her. I have mixed it with wet Pedigree and heat it in the micro for 10 sec. She will eat the wet and leave the dry. BUT, if I mix the wet with Purina One Lamb and Rice, which has smaller pebbles, she will eat it.
I also give her a treat once a day with a teas. of low fat cottage cheese with sugar free apple sauce, she got tired that so now she gets the cottage cheese with 1/2 tes. of cranberry sauce. Spoiled,? YES

[Txgurl06]

skoshi and kiele love LA and have been on it for a while now. I would recommend it to anyone. The kibble is a little large but my pups have no trouble with it at all. I guess it all depends on your dog. I say if you have tried the sample and it works then go for it. But please please please follow lindas instructions on switching them over and do it very slowly!

the only bad thing about it is it takes up a lot of room in my fridge lol! but hey i can get over that!

[Judy in Waco]

We feed our Gizmo the Life's Abundance and the supplement. I read all of the literature and asked a lot of questions, and I feel really good about this food and the supplement. Gizmo also thinks the supplement is a treat. He likes the food a lot.

He is struggling some since we are moving away from free-feeding and trying to homecook less, but he's making the transition with almost no tummy issues or unnecessary weight gain or loss. He eats all of the food and enjoys it, but usually only after he's sure we're not going to give in and homecook something for him! lol!

It's a great food, and I am very confident about it. It's made with all human-grade ingredients and made in the US from US ingredients.
