| Fromm Surf and Turf dog food is a hit! So, Jackson has done amazing on Nature's Variety Instinct and I have/had no intentions of taking him off of it. But the other day, I found a sample bag I had recieved a while back of Fromm and never used. I let him sniff it and he actually ate it! He never will just eat kibble as a treat out of my hand, lol. So I thought... well, hmm.. maybe I'll rotate him between the Fromm grain-free and NV Instinct. The Fromm is a 4lbs bag and the NV Instinct is 4.4lbs but the Fromm costs me $10.99 around here and that's about $8 cheaper than the NV Instinct. I plan on feeding him both on a rotation every-other-bag diet... and what does the stinker do? He spits out the pieces of NV and only eats the Fromm. He loves it! I hope it's just because the Fromm is new and I can get him eating the NV again! lol. But just wanted to let everyone know he loves the food! Which is an amazing feat for my picky boy!

| How exciting...that's awesome! I'm guessing he spits out the NV bc the Fromm is new. I rotate foods as well, and my baby ALWAYS spits out the old food, no matter which food I'm switching from or to. I plan on trying Surf & Turf in our rotation. Glad to hear Mr. Jackson enjoys his new food!! |

| That is GREAT!!!!! When I fed them Orijen, the food would sit for hours until they finally ate it all. I usually feed twice a day and sometimes there would still be some in the bowl when I fed at night. With the Fromm's Surf and Turf, the eat it all at both meals and can't wait to get more. I have never seen them eat this well. I am going to keep them on this for awhile then maybe try NV or Acana and see how that goes. I am so glad that it is working for you too!!!!

| I have been thinking about switching to it... I feed the Duck variety right now but the Surf and Turf is grain free... thanks so much for posting, I have been wondering how other dogs like it! |

YT 2000 Club Member | I recieved some samples the other day of the grain free surf and turf and my dogs as well went crazy for it, but they always do when its a new food, then I get so excited that they love the new food that I go out and buy a bag, then they stop eating it. lol.. (rolling eyes) I also got several good coupons to use, so I if I can find a store in my area I may just buy a bag. If not I will offer them up here.... Im glad that Jackson likes it!!

| I've been feeding Fromm's for a while but switched to the Surf and Turf formula a couple of months ago. All of mine love it and are doing well...the boys transitioned to it with no trouble or stomach upset and I can already see big changes in Nikki's coat. I recetly started them all back on Innova puppy food so the boys can gain a little weight so I mix the Fromm's with that and they eat it all...no picking around any of it. I have also fed them the Fromm's Gold and that was a hit so I will still use that in the mix...probably every other bag. Fromm's is a great food that is reasonably priced...I can't see changing from it anytime soon. |

| I'm glad to hear everyone else thinks this is a good food. I'm really happy with it so far and am really glad Jackson likes it as much as he does. Hopefully he will do good switching back and forth between the Fromm and the Nature's Variety.

| hmmm, my vet told us about the Fromm since Hot Rod is so picky. I just had not gotten to try it yet. They have actually been gobbling up their natural balance roll lately...I discovered if I put shreds of real turkey in it and nuke it for about 13-15 seconds, it moistens the food and Hot Rod can't eat it quick enough! So far it's been working since Thanksgiving. Keep your fingers crossed. lol

| Winston is on Surf and Turf too and absolutely loves it. Before I started feeding it to him he would lay on his back on the carpet and move around almost like he was scratching it. I asked someone at the pet food place and they suggested I move to grain-free since he may have an allergy... low and behold it worked! I switched him to the Surf and Turf as well as grain-free treats. Now he only scratches about 10% of what he use to! I am so glad to hear other pups like it too! |

| I think you can go to the Fromm website to find retailers in your area...or maybe order it online. It is TOTALLY worth the effort! |

| I order it from Premium & Organic Dog Food and Dog Treats - Free Shipping! I usually have it the next day!! I do not have a local retailer to get it from either. I have to drive over an hour one way to get to a store, so I would rather have it shipped to my door!!!
