Super Premium Pet Foods List - Ask for FREE samples - Page 17 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

JuneBugs Momma · 08-09-2013, 07:34 AM

I started receiving some of the samples the other day. Some just send one bag (Wellness, Solid Gold) but Artemis send me a huge UPS box of food. I think I can feed my 7lb Biewer for a year on what they gave me. Here is a list:

(4) SOS Salmon & Brown Rice
(4) SOS Duck & Brown Rice
(5) SOS Lamb & Brown Rice
(4) Osopure Grain Free Bison
(4) Osopure Grain Free Salmon
(4) Osopure Grain Free Duck
(4) Pro A.L.S
(8) Fresh Mix Small Breed
(1) Measuring Cup

I received a total of 37 bags of the stuff! I emailed them and the only thing that is concerning is that they DO get some of the ingredients from China

. I do appreciate their honesty but I also am putting into consideration their reputation AND they never had a recall.

Hello everyone,My Miyoko is 8 months old and he is currently eating a combination of Ceasar and Purina Puppy Chow... I'm looking to feed him a good quality dog food but am not sure as to what to look for in a good dog food... Any suggestions... Currently while my dog eats, he seems to belch when he is given dry food alone...

Amicus is one of my favorite kibbles for Yorkies. Stella & Chewies and Primal are fantastic raw foods. Let me know your zipcode and I will help you find a great food locally.

I have been feeding Graysee Wellness Core grain-free dry kibble, mixed with FreshPet Deli Select, which is found in the refrigerated section of the dog food. She seems to do better, both digestion-wise and with her elimination, as it adds more water to her diet. She typically doesn't drink enough water to keep her feces moist and easy to move. She is doing better on this diet than she did on Blue Buffalo, and she doesn't belch as much.

My breeder starts them on Eukanuba, I didnt see this in your list, Is it not a good food for them?

LoL that's very true Artemis is one the most generous mfg they sent me a bunch. I hope folks out there don't abuse their generosity. Taste of the Wild was also the same. Those 2 are amazing & I will support them no matter what.

Unfortunately from that list some who I really wanted to try some like Fromm replied with an offering of coupons which to me is better of not responding at all. I was the most shocked with Origen & Acana since they are so big but again was not eager to send any out.

Hello I have emailed quite a few of the companies. I only got feedback from Artemis. They were super nice sent me a box of about 30 sample packs. My boys seemed to like it. Fromm responded and they are sending samples. Cant wait. It is really making me lean towards rotating in artemis because of their great service. I have used the food about 20 years ago for a chow and she loved it.

Funny i contacted Fromm about 2 weeks ago and they told me we don't have samples but they did mail me a coupon $5.00 off. Which i could get their samples.

Jakester · 01-13-2015, 10:54 AM

Orijen & Acana is such a solid company but they refused to offer any samples, puts a sour taste in my mouth.

I have to say I am a little upset with Honest Kitchen. Just recently purchased a huge 10 pound box of Embark in December. After using it for a few weeks I noticed that the expiration date is 1/17/2015. I have literally used one cup of it. I only feed once a day. While I emailed and the rep said do not use since it does go rancid and sorry that was all the response so I am out about 45.00. Not sure what to do with it since I only have a few more days to use. My mistake for buying such a big box but still

If you still have your receipt you should be able to refund / exchange it.

Just curious about the puppy food. There are SOOO many that you have Listed. My vet told me to feed my puppy Science Diet for puppies. He seems to be doing great on it. Does it not have enough nutrition in it for him? Any advise would be gratly appreciated! I just have not heard it mentioned on this site
Thanks

Jakester · 01-22-2015, 03:16 AM

I personally wouldn't feed Science Diet (to me the ingredients are not that great). i would choose something like Framina N&D, Fromm, orijen, Acana. Fromm will be pretty close in price to Science Diet but WAY better ingredients and a better brand / company by far.

Faerie54 · 01-29-2015, 07:57 PM

I am taking my boys off Simply Nourish and trying Now Fresh out of Canada. It's grain and "meal" free, no corn, wheat or soy. The kibble size is tiny, easier on my older Yorkie's teeth.
Has anyone else out there had experience with Now Fresh Small Breed Adult? Their site is petcurean.com
I noticed Chewy has it available in a variety of sizes.
I got nice feedback after writing Fromm this morning. They are sending information and coupons.
