I received my samples. Thanks! Rily and Saydee will try it tomorrow.:) |
Finally got home and ripped open the samples! Kasha thinks the kibbles are treats! I'll see how she enjoys them in the bowl tomorrow as a test. (she is a nibbler) Very exciting Thank you so much BaxtersMommy! |

Can't wait to see how tomorrow goes. :) Thanks again! |
We received our samples last week, thank you very much. Everyone got to try them as sample treats and all loved them except my one very picky eater, she was not in love, but did eat a few which is more than I can say about most dog food. I still need to try the canned, going to do that this weekend. Thanks again |
I did receive my samples. I mixed some of the Life's Abundance kibble with my Maddie's Natural Balance and put some of the canned on top (about a Tbsp). she devoured the canned and ate about half of each of the kibbles. After 2 days of this, she thew up twice, just a small amount of white foamy "something". I am thinking maybe the canned was too rich for her tummy since she has never had canned food before. I am waiting a bit for her tummy to settle and then will try mixing just the two kibbles as I have always read it's not good to switch completely overnight. I am really hoping she will go for it, the Natural Balance is a small bite kibble and I think she swallows it more than she chews it. She is not much of a chewer on bullies or anything else I have tried and has had to have a dental as a result. I am hoping having to chew the larger kibble of Life's Abundance will help with her teeth. Thank you so much for sending samples to all of this, I know there is an expense in it for you. |
My guys loved the samples. Just got my account set up and ordered my first bag and set up for autoship. It is going to be so nice not to have to worry about driving 60 miles round trip for food and to never run out!!! YAY |
I got my samples! All three of my dogs loved the dry food, but unfortunately they didn't like the wet! My big lab turns his nose to all wet dog food so it's no surprise lol. My schnauzer tried it and didn't like it and my yorkie smelled it and walked away. BUT, as soon as they heard the dry food they were at my feet lol! So I will be ordering dry food I guess! Thank you so much!!!!!!!! :D:D:D |

Thank you, that is very sweet of you. Yes, it does help to have a little larger kibble. It is much better for their teeth, cleans them well. I also like that it is a life stages food. My vet actually complimented on my babies teeth when I took them in during the last 2 weeks. (I have 4, so I only take 2 at a time. lol ) Anyway, I am glad they enjoyed it. It might have been rich for her. I started giving a tiny bit of it at first. Now, they know that is their morning treat. :) |

Got my shipping confirmation. Our food will be here Wed. and not a moment too soon!! Since giving Jada and Bogie the samples as treats, they are being so picky eating and guys these two furbutts are never picky. They are chow hounds!! I thought they were sick yesterday morning, I put their breakfast out and they just sat and looked at it like....mom you expect us to eat that!!! I mixed in some of the Life's Abundance kibble and they dug into it. Thanks so much for the free samples Dana!!! |
I've used the dry formula for almost two years and all 5 love it. I started with this food because of my poodles allergies and it is wonderful and the plus to this is that all 5 can eat it and it is good for them. They also use the vitamins. |

Dozens of you have recently received samples from Dana. She and I are working together with Life's Abundance. I wanted to jump in here and let you know that Life's Abundance has products for people as well. Browse around and you will find items you will like also. Check it out here Reminder.....If you are set up on autoship, you will NOT pay extra for shipping if you would like to add another item to your autoship order. If you decided to have food, treats, & supplements come every 6 weeks you pay the same shipping as you did before. That goes for everyone, so if you are thinking of changing to LA it will benefit you to get all your Healthy supplies shipped right to your door!! |
Yay! More LA Lovers! It is soooo nice to see more people offering the Life's Abundance food! I have been a Rep for 2 years now ever since I tried it myself. I LOVE seeing this, as LA is getting more well known due to its great benefits! I (well myself and my babies) use all Life's Abundance products! :thumbup: So glad to see more people trying it!!! :thumbup: |
Thank you for the samples. It is a hit in my house as well! |
:)Are you still sending out free samples? My 3 yorkies have eye boogers and would like to try this food. I pm'd you with my address if you still are. |
Betty Boop loved her free samples of LA. I didn't even have to add extra bites of chicken to tempt her. Thanks for the free samples, Dana. |

I was just researching this brand my Rudy is the pickiest eater of all my dogs, I have to beg and plead with him to eat :( It drives me nuts for a couple of weeks he loves a new food then one day to the next he can not be bothered and snubs it. currently I have him on Evo, Solid Gold and Natural Balance, and Dyne Supplement for days he refuses to eat I would love to see if he will eat this brand I am desperate! |
I got my first order in today. I used one of the sample bags just as treats, from the day I got them in the mail. The last few days my two (who are not picky eaters by any stretch of the imagination) have been refusing to eat their Blue Buffalo. Yesterday evening I opened the other sample so I could start the changing them over as I knew my big bag would be delivered today. Well they won't eat the blue at all they pick through it and only eat the LA. My question is how do you slowly transition them if they will not eat the old food. I don't want to upset their tummies, but I want them to get enough to eat. |
How to Transition to Life's Abundance Quote:
This is a document that we are able to give our customers written by founder Dr. Jane Bicks. I hope this helps. Over feeding can cause loose stools, so please follow directions and serving amounts. :) HOW TO BEGIN FEEDING LIFE’S ABUNDANCE Thank you for choosing Life’s Abundance Premium Health Food for your dog. Due to its superior quality, I’m confident that your dog will continue to benefit from it over the course of his or her lifetime. Please follow these recommendations for switching from your dog’s current food to the new Life’s Abundance dry food. Please remember, these are general guidelines. Some dogs are more sensitive to changes in diet than others. Some will do fine with a slightly faster change, and some will take longer. IT IS IMPORTANT THAT YOU DO NOT SWITCH TO LIFE’S ABUNDANCE OVERNIGHT. A dog’s intestinal system is unique in that it requires a slow introduction to a new diet. GRADUALLY SWITCH TO LIFE’S ABUNDANCE FROM YOUR DOG’S CURRENT DIET, OVER THE COURSE OF 5 – 7 DAYS. Review the feeding guidelines on the back label of the bag to determine the appropriate quantity of Life’s Abundance for your dog. For the first two days, feed ¼ of the recommended amount of Life’s Abundance and supplement the remaining ¾ with the older food. On the third and fourth days, feed ½ of the recommended amount of Life’s Abundance and ½ older food. On the fifth and sixth days, use ¾ of the recommended amount of Life’s Abundance and ¼ of the older food. On the seventh day, the transition period is over and you can feed Life’s Abundance according to the recommended amounts without using the previous food. HOW DO YOU KNOW THAT YOU ARE CONVERTING TO THE NEW FOOD CORRECTLY? The reaction of your dog’s body will be your guide. Life’s Abundance stools should be firm and small. If the stools become softer or excessive, you have switched over too quickly or may be feeding too much. If you encounter some of these issues, simply decrease the amount of Life’s Abundance you are feeding by ¼, even if it is less than the recommended amount on the chart. Continue feeding this amount until the stools become firmer and/or less frequent. REFRAIN FROM FEEDING YOUR DOG ANYTHING ELSE NEW UNTIL THE TRANSITION TO LIFE’S ABUNDANCE IS COMPLETED. Your immediate goal is to introduce and convert your dog’s diet fully to Life’s Abundance. If you add other new products (like treats or supplements) all at the same time, your dog’s intestinal tract is more likely to experience problems. Once your dog’s diet consists of Life’s Abundance food alone, feel free to add new treats and or supplements at that time. By following these helpful directions, your dog should enjoy a smooth transition to a truly superior food. Wishing you and your companion animal a lifetime of health and happiness, Dr. Jane Bicks |

Let me know how things are going. It might take a few days, but it will get better. Mine are so much happier eating Lifes Abundance. :) |
I had a thought and wanted to run it by you. I wondered if maybe it takes less of the LA to fill our furbabies up. Jada and Bogie are eating about 1/2 of what they normally eat. Yesterday and today I gave them 1/2 of the blue and 1/2 of LA for the transition. They are eating a lot slower as I think the larger and harder kibble they actually have to chew. It seems to be filling them up and their poops are fine and they have lots of energy. I think they are getting plenty it is just taking less food they they normally get to fill them up. It was stressing me when they wouldn't finish their meal all at once.(I am used to them being vacuum cleaners) I am leaving what they don't immediately eat out and they are grazing more, which IMO has to be healthier. I just wanted to see what you think.[/QUOTE] |

Yep, its important to look at the kcal/cup of the food, rather than the amount they're eating (that's what I've learned anyways). Life's Abundance seems to be 441 kcal per cup so they're getting more food by eating less. :) If that makes sense. Here's a good calculator. :) http://www.dogfoodadvisor.com/dog-fe...od-calculator/ |

Did you get my PM? I keep hearing this from folks noticing their dogs are eating less. :) yay! The nutrients, larger kibble and freshness of the food all plays a big part in this. Some dogs eat and eat because they are not being fullfilled, you can be sure with LA they are getting what they need. I really believe the bigger kibble (not that it is very big) is better for them because they do chew it rather than sucking it down whole. Glad to hear their poo is normal! :) Awesome that they like it so well! :D :thumbup: |
I recieved my free samples today. Wow, that was fast. The kibbles are bigger than what I am currently feeding now and I was worried Daisy my 3 pounder wouldn't be able to eat them. Boy was I wrong she loves it. I also have 2 males Rosco is the picky one. Bo loved it. Rosco actually ate some, which I was surprised he is soooooooo picky. I am going to see how it does on their eye boogers. That is so nice of you to send samples:) |
