Fromm... Anyone feeding this?
 

The store near me started carrying Fromm.
What is your experience with Fromm dry food?

I am feeding RC currently but it really is time for a switch.
They thought Mickey had some crystals when he got his blood work for his upcoming dental. Second test they were gone. :(
We have been feeding RC for about a year. He has never tested with crystals before so I am worried about the food he is eating.

He also got a little pimple looking white bump on his head which I saw
holestic articles saying it coulf be a food issue.

Fromm's is a suppose to be a very good food. The breeder I got Sophie from was feeding her Fromm's but a week or so after I got Sophie she started not wanting to eat it any more. I could not get her to eat it at all so I changed to RC. So far she has not had any issues.

Teddy's been eating the grain-free formulas for the past few bags (lamb & lentils and salmon tunalini). He does really well on this food and we have always come back to it throughout the past couple of years. I fed Toki a few of the inclusive formulas when she was eating kibble and she also did well on it. Also, the pieces are pretty small if that's an important factor for you....you might try getting some sample bags at your independent stores that carry it. We are big fans here!

Mine have been eating Fromm Chicken a la veg. Mia (not a yorkie but a pom) is a really picky eater and she eats it just fine. The kibble is small.

It is our food of choice for now but we may change back to Acana. Fromm kibble size is great and very good ingredients. Ali does well on it, and I love the fact that you can get sample bags to try before you buy.

My only problem is the smallest bag for purchase is 4lbs. It's hard to keep Ali interested in anything long enough to use 4lbs. Acana sells small bags (less than a pound) so I can switch her around and keep her interested. The kibble size is too large on Acana so I have to break it up.

I have been thinking about switching my Yorkie boys to Fromm. Currently they are eating Organix Grain Free kibble by Castor and Pollux. My 16 week old is on the Grain Free puppy and my 8 year old has been eating some of the puppy's food and gained 3 oz in a week. I can't have him gaining weight, he's been 7 lbs for years. I try to keep him at this weight because he has LP's and three Vets have said they don't recommend surgery for him but all three also said that if I keep him at a healthy weight and don't encourage jumping (I have stairs for the beds) he shouldn't have any problems with the LP's. He's almost 9 and hasn't had any problems with his LP's and was diagnosed as a puppy. I really want to find a good kibble for all life stages so I won't have to worry about them eating each other's food. I am waiting to get a call back from the nutritionist at Fromm, I don't want to feed my babies any foods with GMO's and I called the company today to ask about this. I don't eat GMO foods and I won't feed them to my furry babies either. I'm impressed with Fromm as a company and never having any recalls and their use of meats that are free of hormones and antibiotics but if they are fed GMO feed that all goes out the window for me.

We feed Fromm. Shelby is on blue basics at the time. She has been very sensitive and we decided to try it for her for sensitive stomach/ food allergies.

Max and Teddy have been eating Fromm Chicken a la Veg for a few years (most of their lives). They love it.

Cali eats Fromm and loves it!

Fromm is a great brand, IMO.

I am not sure the issues you're having would be due to food though? But maybe I'm wrong.

Diet may influence crystal formation, but there can be other factors. If the crystals were not detected on the second test, it may have just been a matter of when the first sample was taken.

The pimple like thing, I would not blame the food. Max has had a couple in his six years. Sebaceous cysts are fairly common and have many causes.

Remy has been on Fromm gold puppy since I got him from the breeder. He is such a picky eater but had no issues eating Fromm when I switched him to it. I just went yesterday to buy him some more food and decided to pick up a different kind since he will be one in a couple of weeks and I can start switching him now. He loves the new Fromm I picked up (Grain free pork and peas). I love that they have soooo many different favors you can pick. I hope this help!

I was watching one of the videos on the Fromm site and it said it is formulated so you can feed one flavor for one meal and another flavor for the second meal. Any one do this?
Good to hear the crystals and cyst thing might not be food related.
I don't like feeding my boys the new RC Yorkie formula that has by product in it. It is too much money to have by product in my opinion. It is worrisome to me that they did this.

The limited research that I did showed Fromm to be a very good food. I really wanted Gucci to enjoy it, alas, he didn't take to it. I would however recommend the food. Get some samples! Calling Fromm directly is a great option as well. I enjoyed their very honest responses to my specific questions.

I have heard nothing but really great things about Fromm.

I feed Fromm Whitefish and Potatoe to our yorkie . Our baby is allergic to chicken so this has been the best food for us. Also give her the Salmon one too. For treats she gets the low fat cranberry liver from Fromm. Never had a problem with their food. Susan

I started transitioning my boys over to Fromm grain free, Game Bird flavor. The store also gave me sample bags of all of the grain free flavors and they like the Pork and Peas flavor too. I really like Fromm as a company, I spoke to their nutritionist for a while on Thursday and to say I am impressed with them is an understatement. For such a good food I don't feel the price is bad either.

I have been feeding both my Yorkie and my Biewer Fromm grain free for over a year. The kibble size is small, I have had no adverse reactions from it. I believe it to be a good quality food, I like that I can switch the flavors to keep it interesting for them. My boys are currently addicted to the lamb and lentel. I am thinking of switching the older of my two to the whitefish and potato because of the lower fat and protein....... but he is sooooooo finicky I may just keep him on what he will eat.

I was giving Fromm grain free for a little. . It is great food. You should try it. .

I also have a German Shepherd and am part of a German shepherd forum, and many people there feed their dogs and recommend Fromm. I've never actually tried, it, but I hear it's very good, especially for high-energy working or sport dogs.

Fromm is overpriced garbage. It is all vegetables, peas, lentils, chickpeas, pea starch, pea flour and the worst of it "pea protein" all listed individually to fool you.

dont waste your money

I am pretty sure lamb is not a vegetable and the the vegetables they put in their food are very nutritious. It's great food, great kibble size for yorkies.

I think you need to be specific about which Fromm formula you are criticizing. There isn't a single pea in the formula I use.

Relative to price, I believe Fromm is on the very low end of the price scale for "boutique" brands (those not sold in grocery and general stores).

I've heard nothing but great things from those who feed Fromm. I def wouldn't call it garbage at all! Sorry it didn't work out for you. "Pea protein" isn't a bad thing, btw.

I feed Sophie fromm chicken a la veg and she loves it...:p

We are feeding Fromm now. I actually switch between two flavors because my guys get bored easily and insist on variety :p. I feed the whitefish and sweet potato and switch that up with the pork and applesauce flavor. All three of mine love it and are doing very well on it. :thumbup: :thumbup:

My boys are loving it so far!
Just glad there are no by products in it!

Their grain free checked out to be real good food when I looked into it. Even though the grain free kibble is very small, my lil ole guy needed something even smaller, I suspect.

Joni really likes Fromms game bird formula. She was on the chicken a la veg and while she certainly ate it, the kibble would linger in the bowl for a while. Not with game bird - she usually gobbles it right up. (No pun intended). It's a quality food that she handles well. I order from Amazon however, it's not in stores here.

Dog food
 

Little dee dee is allergic to poultry. I got her a bag of Fromm Beef Fritata and she eats every bite. This is a high quality food with no by products. I highly recommend it.
