Dog food samples I wanted to post this here in case any of you have never thought about asking for dog food samples. I wrote the Diamond Dog food company asking if I could have some samples of their Naturals dog food for senior dogs because my 10 yo Collie and 15 yo Rat Terrier are both getting to where they have a hard time chewing food. I wanted to try this brand because they carry it in bulk in my pet food store and my collie eats a lot of food. They have always eaten dry kibble and neither of them really cares for canned which is good because I don't like giving it anyways. After I emailed them their representative emailed me back asking questions about the dogs so she could get an idea of what to send. Well the samples came today via UPS in a 6 lb box! I was shocked to get so many! Reggie was in sniffing mode the minute I opened the box. I let him try a couple of the Taste of the Wild kibbles as a treat and he thought they were yummy! The rest of the food in the box is mostly senior dog food with a couple bags for big dogs. This was so cool to receive. Now I have to figure out which ones the old doggies like. http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y10...y/DSC_4484.jpg |
Could you post there address? I would love to try Muffy and Buddy one some new foods. I have been thinking of trying Taste of Wild but Chicken Soup sounds good also. |

Please just be aware - all of the food manufactured by Diamond that contain fish meal...the fish meal is preserved with ethoxyquin, a carcinogen. :( |
The only ones they sent me with fish in them is one of the Chicken Soup for the Soul and a couple Taste of the Wild. The Diamond Naturals I got are all for senior dogs and have chicken or chicken and eggs mixes. I read all the bags and none of them had ethoxyquin listed as an ingredient or preservative. |
Since I have never heard of that I looked it up and found this interesting bit of info here: Pet Food Labels - General Quote:

Diamond (and others) does not have to list ethoxyquin as an ingredient on the bags - because they didn't add it. That's the scary/upsetting part. They have a supplier for the fish meal - and it is the SUPPLIER that adds the ethoxyquin. There's another thread on here about the different pet food manufacturers and what their fish meal is preserved with...it's very informative. |
Good to know. I just won't be buying any dog food with fish in it. Just to clarify, does Taste of the Wild and Chicken Soup for the Soul have it in it too? |
Never mind, I found the list here: http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/yor...thoxyquin.html I didn't see anything about Wellness. Does anyone know about them? Reggie is on Wellness small dog super 5 mix. |
