| FROMM food... who feeds this? I am in the process of finding a new food for the furkids. I am considering Fromm and looking at the pros and cons of it...... Does anyone use this food?... or has anyone considered it and changed their minds? Please let me know what you think of it or why you didn't choose it! Thanks!!!

| I used to feed it, I stopped only because my dogs have a liver condition and it did not fit the criteria they need. However my parent have been feeding the two grain free formulas for over 4 years to their two toy poodles and they do wonderful on it and are in great condition. I always recommend it as I really like the company.

| Max and Teddy eat Fromm Chicken a la Veg. We try other foods every once in awhile, but we always come back to this one.

| About a month ago I switched from Life's Abundance to Fromm Four-Star. They really love the food. Cooper has a very sensitive tummy and the change in food has not negatively affected him at all. The Four-Star also has a variety flavors that can be safely interchanged as they all use the same formula.

| Kristi, if I could get it where I live, this is what mine would be eating. When I was in Phoenix I had to pick up dog food and they had fromm there. One of the people working there recommended it. He gave me samples of all of the flavors and I could not believe that every one of my dogs loved every flavor. BUT that being said, it isn't available anywhere in reasonable driving distance from me.. so we have stayed with Innova because I can get it. It is a top quality food in my opinion

| I had considering trying out this food with Sasha. Only reason I didn't was because she's doing so well on Blue Buffalo Wilderness and eats it better than any other food I've ever tried with her that I didn't want to risk her becoming a picky eater again so I decided not to. I do give her their treats though. I really like that the flavors they offer in their biscuits are "different" than normal flavors that biscuits usually are. She loves them. |

| Zoey has had tummy issues in the past and we tried a few different brands before committing to Fromm Four Star. She loves it and we have not had any issues. For us personally, Zoey gives it 4 paws and I highly recommend!

| Hi Kristi! My babies used to eat Fromm Surf N Turf and they did very well on it. They also LOVED it so much! Raider has a sensitive tummy and he did so good on this food. I would highly recommend it to anyone with healthy pups! We had to take them off of it because Lola had a Pancreatitis attack in May and can no longer have high fat food. They are eating Royal Canin Gastrointestinal Low Fat kibble that the vet prescribed right now, but I'm searching for a better quality low fat food that they will eat better. Good luck with it and let me know what you think of Fromm if you try it!

| The Surf and Turf flavor has 19% fat, while the Chicken a la Veg has only 15% fat, which is pretty good. Still too high for a dog at risk for pancreatitis though.

| I too, noted differences in the fat content and we decided on the whitefish and potato with 11% fat.

| I've been feeding Fromm's for nearly a year now. Both my boys love all the flavors, and I'm very happy with how they are both doing on it. No tummy issues, smaller poop, and no picky eating. The only thing I did notice with Snickers is that I have to change flavors very gradually, or else he gets a gurgly tummy. The duck and sweet potato is the one I give them the most.

| I just got some samples of Fromm from my groomers and the ingredients look wonderful. I also like that it is manufactured in Wisconsin... right here in the U.S.!! The kibble is even smaller than the Innova that we have been feeding. I am planning on adding a little of the kibble to the feedings and if all works out well, we will make a smooth transition to the new food. Wish us Luck!!! & TYTYTYTY for all the help that you guys give!!! YT Rules! HUGs!

| Good luck! What kind are you going to try? My boys eat the chicken and like the surf & turf but the salmon didn't sit to well in max's tummy. I've only tried the other flavors only as samples.
