Ancient Mountain Canine Recipe with Roasted Lamb is rated out of 5 by 299.Rated 5 out of 5 by Carol B from Lives for chowtime She has had taste of the wild her whole life that really loves the ancient mountain. The tiny kibble is right for a jack Russell mix and she enjoys wonderful energy and stamina. She is happy with the chow, and I am happy to know they keep an eye on the quality of the product for the health of my petDate published: 2023-03-14Rated 5 out of 5 by Dave from We have been using most of the products for years We raise Cavilier King Charles Spaniels and have been using the products for years. I think it's a bit unfair to pick one product. We try to buy as many different flavors as they have in the store Sometimes 6 or more and mix them to feed the dogs. That way they get a buffet of flavors and nutrition.Date published: 2023-03-14Rated 5 out of 5 by toddlerteacherr from I have always seen this food in the store but I was scared to get it for my pups who get picky sometimes. Boy was I excited when this came in the mail! Both of my dogs gobbled the food up so quickly and they just wanted more! The ingredients reassured me that my fur babies are only getting the best!Date published: 2019-10-26Rated 5 out of 5 by stephanybp from I have two puppies a lab and a Queensland. Both very active breeds. I was mainly scared that giving them a different kind of food would upset their stomachs as switching sometimes may. Thankfully it didnt and after a few smells they ate it quicker than they even usually do with their normal food!Date published: 2019-12-03Rated 5 out of 5 by kaylar25 from I have a border collie and Australian Shepherd that arent particularly interested in food. I can leave their bowl full and they will just eat when theyre hungry. Not with taste of the wild!! They ate it so fast and kept sniffing the box for more. I will have to purchase the full size for them!Date published: 2019-11-26Rated 4 out of 5 by briannamarie1f7727cc from My dog is picky but he seemed to really like this! I didnt give him a lot at first because I didnt want to make him sick by switching his food but Im going to continue to give it to him. It doesnt smell terrible like some other dog food and has a lot of nutrients! I recommend giving this a tryDate published: 2019-10-29Rated 5 out of 5 by caprisumner from My puppy is a German Shorthaired Pointer and its hard to get her to eat her dog food, I usually have to sit with her and pet her until she finishes it. But when I fed her Taste of the Wild, it was gone in seconds. Maybe because it was something new and different, but she loved it regardless.Date published: 2019-11-03Rated 5 out of 5 by Amy Watt from Hank the cowdog Our 2 year old mixed working dog (Aussie, Blue Healer, Hanging Tree Dog and Border Collie) named "Hank the Cowdog" loves this blend. He enjoys our small herd of sheep (12 to 16) and ducks (8). We started it with real cooked beef each morning. Thank you for all you do to keep it fresh.Date published: 2023-03-14Rated 5 out of 5 by graybabe from My 9 month old German Shepherd puppy absolutely loved trying this food. I first gave it to her as a treat in her treat ball and she loved getting the pieces out. Added it to her food and she ate the whole bowl. No complaints here. This was her first time eating lamb, and she was impressed!Date published: 2019-10-27Rated 5 out of 5 by zurguzman4 from Oh my goodness! My dog enjoyed this food so much!! We have trouble with her spitting out food when it comes to changing her food. With this line she wouldn't stop eating it, it was love at first bite for her! Definitely changing her food to this line! Try it, buy it, your dog will love it!Date published: 2019-11-21Rated 5 out of 5 by ofdealzcrew from We have always loved taste of the Wild for its commitment to quality food. Our pet is just as much family as our children. We had not tried this variety yet, but our pup didnt even take a second look. He jumped right in and ate it all up. He now is resting happily with a full belly!Date published: 2019-11-21Rated 5 out of 5 by amberlielynnscheufel from I thought the packaging on the bag was perfect and fitting for the taste of the wild thing. The artwork is excellent and goes with the flavor of the food. My dogs absolutely love this food and they were always begging for more after! Definitely might have to change their food over.Date published: 2019-11-06Rated 5 out of 5 by kaylarbbb from My dog immediately fell in love! We got the Taste of the Wild with roasted lamb. The only thing is that its a bit pricey, but obviously you get what you pay for because its packed full of totally natural ingredients.Taste of The Wild Sierra Mountain Canine Formula with Roasted LambDate published: 2019-10-29Rated 5 out of 5 by karam28 from Love that ancient grains are now included in the recipe for Taste of the Wild. My dogs loved their complimentary sample of the Ancient Mountain with Roasted Lamb flavor. The kibble is small & easy to chew, maybe a little too small for my two 75lb dogs but they are it just the same!Date published: 2019-10-30Rated 5 out of 5 by erinw72 from My dog has a chicken allergy and it has been so hard finding the right food for him! This has been our holly grail! The ingredients are great and most importantly for us, there is no chicken! His loves this food, and it makes his coat look so nice! We have even gotten compliments!Date published: 2020-04-12Rated 4 out of 5 by nicoleg18 from Overall my dog liked this food and I was impressed by ingredients. However its on par with the current food I give my dog so I wouldnt switch her over based on that alone. If youre a new pet parent or looking to upgrade your current dog food then Id recommend giving it a try.Date published: 2019-12-02Rated 3 out of 5 by mckennamary from My dog loved the flavor and devoured it. I dont like to introduce new food to him due to GI upset but Ive added it to his normal food as a treat and he loved it. My dog is a 90 lb golden doodle so the pellets were pretty small for him. This would be better for smaller dogs.Date published: 2019-12-04Rated 5 out of 5 by haileem1 from I was sent two bags of roasted lamb taste of wild dog food complementary. Each bag had a servings amount for one meal (large dog). Both of my dogs LOVED the product , I was actually thinking about switching their food to taste of wild until I seen the price tag lol.Date published: 2019-11-01Rated 5 out of 5 by Niko from Best food for huskies No fillers, quality ingredients, right grains, plenty of zinc that they need & taste he loves! He self regulates so he's a healthy weight and not overweight. He has healthy skin, a soft coat & always full of energy. I recommend this food to everyone & for every breed!Date published: 2022-06-22Rated 5 out of 5 by lindseym38 from My pup loved this product, I had to slowly switch her over to it as directed by the vet. Now that I have switched her over it's what she's eating regularly. I only wish they provided a little more to account of the transitional period to make sure my fur baby loved it.Date published: 2019-11-21Rated 4 out of 5 by kellim6 from My dog usually eats food with lamb-based proteins, so this was right up his ally. I liked that the kibble size was smaller than what he usually eats (he is a 6-year old, lab/pit mix). We are back on the grain incorporated food again, so we would definitely repurchase!Date published: 2019-11-26Rated 3 out of 5 by linneas2a5e from The ingredients are all things I recognize and our healthy. However, my pet simply did not like it! I wish he did but he after he tried it he would not eat it again. I would recommend trying it with a puppy so they start knowing the product and more likely to like it.Date published: 2020-01-02Rated 4 out of 5 by beccal8bb8 from My dog seemed to really enjoy the new food! The size of the food pieces were perfect for him. I started by mixing it with his other food and he picked out all of these pieces. It did seem to make him a little gassy but Im assuming that is just because it is new food.Date published: 2019-10-30Rated 5 out of 5 by Anonymous from My dog loved it! I think it is a very healthy choice for dog food! I also would definitely buy it again. I would recommend it to all my fellow dog owners!

Really good!Date published: 2019-11-10Rated 5 out of 5 by billieb24bc from My dogs loved this food! They have sensitive stomachs and changing to this food didnt effect them at all.

They seemed to love this! 4 stars because I probably wont repurchase due to not buying dog food, but its a great option if you do purchase your dog food!Date published: 2019-12-31Rated 4 out of 5 by kristenicole12 from Got this in a previous voxbox and came in handy when we ran out of dog food that same weekend.

Hello, and thanks for reaching out! Grain-free diets are great options for dogs that have allergies/sensitivities to grains. Because every dog is different and has varying tastes and nutritional needs which is why we’ve created Ancient Grains recipes that reflect our classic Taste of the Wild flavors. Ancient grains — including grain sorghum, millet, quinoa and chia seed are high in protein, and have been trusted sources of vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and omega fatty acids which support strong, healthy dogs at all life stages. Taste of the Wild Appalachian Valley Small Breed Canine Recipe is specifically formulated for small breed dogs. This grain-free recipe features smaller kibble, making it easier for your dog to chew and digest. This recipe is also more energy-dense, meaning it has higher levels of protein and fat so small breed dogs can eat smaller amounts and still meet their nutritional needs. While our Ancient Mountain Canine Recipe was not specifically formulated for small breed dogs, our kibbles were created with dogs of all sizes in mind. If you have any additional questions or would like a personalized recipe recommendation for your Havanese, please contact us at https://www.tasteofthewildpetfood.com/contact-us.
