I'm likin' this food so far but I will remain objective until we've used it...their health will tell the tale.

I think I'll call the company and see if I can bake the canned food into treats like I used to do for Boog.

This is one of the things I love most about this food. We feed the Open Sky and the boys breath has a sweet minty herb kind of smell now. Love it.
We are 2/3 of the way through the first 12 lb bag. It takes a long time to get thought 12 lbs when the boys eat 1/2C a day or less when I add soft food to it. But so far the foot biting has stopped and the big eye goobers are gone (just a little watery staining left). That might leave IF I did not give them bully sticks. They always look forward to eating. Especially Picky Mickey!

I have been trying so hard to find a distributer here but no joy. I think I will ask my aunt in Florida to send me some. Then if it works with Alfie, I will just have to holiday in the US every year to bring it back. My aunt recently lost her wee yorkie Huey though.

I think I'm going to call CC and see if I can get a sample, as well as find out if anywhere near me sells their products. Bailey is 12 and has some age-related hair loss, but also some skin issues that seem to be caused by allergies. I've only had her for 12 days now, but I'm pretty sure that she needs a better food. The before and after photos are really amazing!

Day 15 and this is what I have noticed so far:

1. Moo is not scratching very much at all.
2. Her ears smell like 'normal' ears and she is not sensitive to the touch.
3. Their coats are noticeably softer than before.
4. Breath is a little fresher but not totally 'odor-free' since we do use some canned.
5. No more 'Frito feet'.
6. Stools are small, firm and non-offensive

They don't eat much at one meal but they do seem to stay full longer with the recommended kibble and canned amounts versus the recommended raw amounts only.

They have taken easily to this food with no stomach upsets or potty issues and I made the switch all at once. However, they were on a grain free kibble and raw food before the switch so being used to that may have helped with their transition.

So far, so good but I will continue to keep an open mind...at least until we've used a couple of bags. I plan to take the ingredient label into my Holistic vet on their next visit to see what she thinks.

That sounds like a Great Review, So Far...

[So far, so good but I will continue to keep an open mind...at least until we've used a couple of bags.]
This is how I am...!! Only because there was other food I had tried that I thought he was doing so well on only to find after a couple of months or bags, it was a No Go!! That is also why I like to try Ry on a food for at least a full 3 months, which is what my Vet said is a good amount of time to get a true reading on how good or not so good a food is for a pup.
Riley did Great on the Wild Ocean and the Open Sky for 3 months each. Now we are on a bag of Wilderness... I will do a full 3 month trial on that one, as well. After that, hopefully the Buffalo will be out and we can try that one for 3 months.
After all of that, I will buy a couple of bags and rotate every couple or few days... I know I would hate to have to eat the same thing every day.

I am so happy for you, girl ! I know how you've been struggling with some food issues for some time now...and I truly hope this works for you.

Don't you *love* the small, non smelly poos? Wait, who loves poop? What I meant was...isn't it awesome that poos from raw food don't smell and are super little? (I feed raw frozen, and the poos are like this as well)

BUT, DON'T WE WANT THE FRITO FEET???? None of my 3 have ever had Frito Feet, so I'm always covetous of those w/ Frito Feet. I guess if you missed the smell, you could always rub their paws around in some corn chips .

Thank you Ann! Yes, we have had our food issues to the point of total frustration and my husband not even wanting to go into the pet supply stores with me! I'm just happy for Moo and I really hope this food continues to work for her.

Yes and yes to the other comments but only a true dog lover understands the 'love of poo'!

I do kind of miss the frito feet smell but knowing that she is feeling better makes it worth the trade...and...I guess if I really miss it I can just be weird and ask to smell the feet of any Yorkies I see in public! LOL!

I'm just wondering because the cc website states wilderness and open sky to be for large breed dogs. Are there 'side effects' for feeding a small dog large breed food?

Where does the website say that?

I see where both formulas state:
"perfect for large and giant breed PUPPIES"
Meaning it is an "all life stages" food for them.
