I have had it with the runny eyes on Max and Mickey that they are getting on Fromm.
Going to order a bag of this from Chewy.com

Riley Loooooooooooooves the Open Sky as well as the Wild Ocean.
I don't think you can go wrong with either. He Loves Duck and he
Loves Fish!! He also Loved the Wilderness, which is Venison.
We tried a 1lb trial bag of it and he did fine on it.
I just like to try and keep him on the same protein for 2 - 3 months
before switching. So he ate Wild Ocean for 3-months and has been
eating Open Sky for about a month.

Good Luck and keep me posted!!

Poor Mickey... His eyes are running so much on Fromm that even though I gently clean them they are geting red/sore skin near eye ducts.
And Max has the largest goobers I have ever seen!
Thanks!

Ordered some CC dry food for my cat as well.
She is 16 years old and has food intolerances.

Have you looked at their canned food?
The ingredients are amazing!
I ordered a case of the Gourmet Turkey for the cat but it can be fed to Dog or Cat. The boys will love a bit mixed in their food.
Ingredients:
Ground Turkey, Water Sufficient for Processing, Carrageenan Gum, Cassia Gum.

Jax has also been having runnier eyes than normal. It's not a HUGE problem, but definitely noticeable. I am honestly not sure if it's the food or what. I am unsure if I should go back to a Fromm grain-free formula, if it's possibly the grains, or try something else like CC to see if the eye tearing problem goes away. We did two bags of Fromm grain-free, then went to chicken a la veg, duck & sweet potato, and now have a new bag of pork & applesauce. Noticeable eye goop did not come until mid-way thru chicken a la veg. It's just a shame because he LOVES his Fromm. Like absolutely LOVES and enjoys meal time. And *I* love Fromm, lol. So basically I am deciding whether to buy a bag of Fromm grain-free, or get another brand and see if the problem stops. In every other aspect, he's been doing great. The last time we tried Open Sky, I thought it smelled bad, and he never too much cared for the taste. I never cared for the price either... so I'm not sure if it'd be worth it or not, I mean his eye boogers aren't that difficult to clean out.

Does anyone know if the Venison smells similar to the Open Sky duck?

I just got a can of beaver, a can of turkey and a can of Duck to try.
He's been eating a little Beaver mixed in and he goes even more nuts for
Mealtime!!

I used to feed lola Origins grain free kibble, but after she got sick from it I started her on Canine caviar and she is doing great. her breath was awful but since she has been on canine caviar it doesn't stick anymore

[mimimomo]

I honestly think that Fromm has too many ingredients in their kibble...& I really dislike flax seed & tomato pomace in dog food...they just simply can't digest it (flax) & tomato pomace is the by-product of tomatoes, consisting of skin which is filled w/pesticides. I wouldn't be surprised if the eye goop problem & poopie issues comes from those said ingredients. Mine are doing so GREAT on Canine Caviar!

I wish their canned food didn't contain carrageenan=/ otherwise, it would be perfect like their kibble.=)

LoL, REALLY?! Must just me. I thought the duck one smelled strong. I may go to the store tomorrow to buy a bag. But I was also debating on Annamaet grainfree. I have heard amazing things about their food and company. Just to expeirent and see if the eye boogers are def from the Fromm.

Ok I will add my two cents. Levi had done well on the Wellness simple solutions duck...but I wanted to get away from wellness. Tried From game bird he itched until he was almost bleeding. I felt horrible. So we are back on wellness...which he does well on but company makes me nervous. Canine Caviar has a duck formula? You have tried it with success? thanks. Lily my little peanut can eat anything, go figure

[Britster]

Ohhh so the only small bag that Chewy.com sells is the large breed puppy and it's MUCH price friendlier hehe - it's $12.99 for a 4.4lb bag, I am considering trying that one. It's not grain-free but it doesn't have flaxseed or tons of ingredients.

I bought a 1lb bag of the Venison about a month ago. Riley Loved that one, as well.

Right now he is eating the Open Sky [Duck...]
My bag of Open Sky doesn't stink, At All.

I actually Completely Agree with you!! I didn't try the grain free FROMM
but Riley did not do well, At All on the chicken a la veg or the pork
and applesauce. I was bummed because I really like FROMM as a
company. I just didn't even bother trying the grain free. Just seems
like way too many ingredients in their formulas.
He is doing GREAT on Canine Caviar as well!! Soooo Glad and relieved
that I decided to try it.
