Rated 5 out of 5 by from My dog went WILD for this stuff!! I got it in the mail #complementary as a voxbox. The minute I brought it inside he got a whiff and started going crazy for it! He doesnt normally get this excited for his normal food, it was like he was getting a treat but it was a healthy food instead. All of the ingredients are great and it comes with a lot of necessary vitamins your dog needs. Kodi didnt get sick either (as some dogs do when switching up foods). I would highly recommend trying this one out!! #WildForAncientGrains Ancient Stream Canine Recipe with Smoked Salmon

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Influenster was kind enough to send my pup, Molly, some Taste Of The Wild: Ancient Grains kibble to try for free! Miss Molly is a very picky pup so I wasnt sure how this was going to go down. But she LOVES this food!! Getting her to sit still for pics after she had a taste was tricky, she kept sniffing the bag! Molly has a very sensitive tummy so we will probably only use this kibble as treats as switching foods completely doesnt go well for her. But she adores this food! Thanks influenster and Taste of The Wild for making this doggies day!! #WildForAncientGrains

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Our boxers love Ancient Stream Canine We feed our 2 boxers ages 2 and 5 Taste of the Wild Ancient Steam Canine and they both love it! We had been switching between flavors with our original 5 yr old boxer and realized just how much he loved this flavor and decided to stick to this flavor exclusively. It also has the extra fish oil which is helping with his thinning coat. Our new boxer girl let us know how much she loved it by refusing the old food she was on when we rescued her. We were mixing both to transition her and she refused to eat in after a few days until we switched her completely to taste of the wild salmon.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Barley loves taste but I can’t stand his breath. I originally had Barley on the puppy grain free high prairie food then after his 1st year moved him to pacific steam grain free recipe. Once ancient grains stream was available I switched his food. I began to notice his breath was bad. I never thought it was his food since he had salmon food before this recipe. I honestly hate to have to discontinue giving him this food. When he licks himself he transfers that sticky breath smell plus I can’t have him near my face. I even spend so much money on different dental treats and new toothpaste but his breath still stinks. He didn’t have this issue with his previous diet. He has grown a great coat and has had no issues with his stool eating the grain free recipe from taste of the wild but I want him on a grain diet.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from DO NOT BUY my very healthy rottweiler turned 1 so i transitioned her to adult food. we used orijen religiously because the ingredients were good for her and it made her coat and skin healthy. we switched her to this food because fish is good for their skin and coat and it had ingredients to help with their digestive system. she started getting rashes and just this morning she has had non stop diarrhea. when we transitioned her to this food we did it over a course of 7 days to avoid any unnecessary diarrhea. well, i did research trying to figure out how could this happen out of nowhere. then i saw… TOTW had a CLASS-ACTION LAWSUIT because the ingredients contain HEAVY METALS that can be extremely TOXIC to our fur babies. please save your troubles and do not buy this food!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great Option for Allergic Dogs One of my dogs is allergic to chicken and it's so hard to find food (with grains) that don't have chicken. Both dogs gobble this up and I haven't seen any adverse affects.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Best Food On the Market!! Ok so ive been feeding my dogs "TOTW" dry food for almost ten years and I tell you its thee best lets break it down, so we all know that some breeds especially bully dogs have big time allergies like skin and stomach issues, this brand offers grain free which i choose everytime which is great for their digestion, if you read the nutrition facts you will notice this brand is more towards the protein side. This food really brings out the true K9 in your pup super energy, beautiful coat, healthy teeth etc......every vet visit is very satisfiying listening to the positive praises my boy "Chaos" gets hes definitely a looker thanks to "TOTW" i havent had not one issue once i switched to taste, its such an awesome food almost all of my friends and family use it because of the results my pups show, they are at the pinnacle of health and energy. I recommend taste i guarantee you will see results in 2 weeks or so, a little something ive learned is when buying dog food look at the ingredients list and corn or corn meal should not be in the first three, i promise if you cut that rachel ray or caesar milan stuff and start using taste you will see a different dog in less than a month thanks guys, lifetime customer right here I will go to war over my "TOTW"

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Helping with allergies and my dog loves it too! Our local feed store recommended this brand to help with sensitive tummy issues and allergies. So far the salmon seems to be his favorite however he really likes the venison and buffalo too! Good thing the feed store recommends variety as well!

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Otis previously ate the grain-free version of this same food/flavor. Ironically, right before receiving this our vet recommended we not do grain-free because some common ingredients in such foods can be harsh on our Frenchies digestion. Anyway, this came just in time! Otis seems to enjoy it more than the previous food. One thing is we wish it had fewer ingredients, just to be more simple. We received this food sample free for testing. Id say it passed the test!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Solved food allergy Our lab had intermittent diarrhea for months. After taking her to vet and ruling out any serious illness we were told to try to determine if her food was the culprit. She had sone well on a salmon grain free earlier in her life and we had changed to chicken based grain inclusive food due to the reports of heart issues in large dogs. So I thought I would eliminate chicken and look for a salmon based food without any chicken. It wasn’t easy but TOW Ancient Stream met our needs: no chicken at all, fish based and grain inclusive. WeGI issues solved. That was 2 years ago and our lab loves her food.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Smoked Salmon Brings My Dogs To The Bowl! After switching several brands due to our dog’s allergies, we found a brand with the winning recipe! Thank you Taste of the Wild for bringing those natural flavors to the bowl! I wasn’t sure how excited and accepting Milton and Madison would be with these new flavors. (They’ve stayed with chicken & turkey) The first flavor - and only one so far - was Ancient Stream Canine Recipe with Smoked Salmon. The aroma wafted gently into the air when I opened the bag. In that moment, I knew we had a winner! Those little dogs came sliding around the corner in an excited run! It’s been about 3 months now and I get the same reaction every single time. We are looking forward to testing more flavors! Thank you!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Quality food. Excellent customer service! Can't say enough about customer service and their product guarantee. I switched my chocolate lab from a grain free diet to this one and he reacted to what I think is the grains in this recipe. I gave Taste of the Wild a call and they were professional and even had a vet that I could talk to about my dog's symptoms. I have since switched him back to grain free/limited recipe and received a reimbursement. My dog is HIGHLY sensitive and requires a limited diet. I am very much impressed with the quick turnaround and great customer service. Thank you Taste of the Wild :)

Rated 5 out of 5 by from 100% approval from my picky Malamute I have three dogs, two adults and one puppy. My pup is a Malamute who is super picky about food, and also gets bored of eating the same thing every day. This food is perfect for my pack because I can feed all 3 dogs the same food, it's easy to find online and locally, and the multiple flavors mean my puppy never gets bored! This is one of the few foods they will eat and the only kibble they like at all. It's so great to have a good quality food for my dogs!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Best all around I’ve been feeding my dogs Taste of the Wild for over 4 years now. I initially discovered it while searching for a new brand of food for my oldest dog who had a lot of allergy issues and a very sensitive stomach. We started our search several of the more expensive designer & well advertised brands. Unfortunately higher prices didn’t buy better results. I decided to try Taste of the Wild after reading about it on a pet form and we’ve been in love with it ever since. My dog’s stomach issued dramatically improved and all of dogs now have beautiful, shiny healthy fur.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Allergy friendly savior! Rory is allergic to chicken and beef and it was extremely hard to find a quality dog food that didn’t have chicken meal or some sort of chicken byproduct hidden within their ingredients — even within “fish” recipes! I was so thankful to find this food. Not only does it met her dietary requirements but I feel confident knowing I’m feeding her a high quality, nutritious, well balanced kibble — we love this stuff! 5 stars is putting it lightly.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Best food for my dog! I’ve gone through a few different brands of food for my dog. He previously had some digestion issues that included really soft stool and sometimes coated with mucus. Vet suggested I try changing his type of food, make sure he’s eating more fiber, etc. After going through a few brands, I almost gave up and just considered medication for him. I read reviews for this brand and the majority of them were positive, so I decided to try this one as a last resort. In about a week, his stool was at a completely normal consistency! I’m definitely owing that to the fiber the ancient grains add and the probiotics! I also love the Salmon for him because it makes his coat shiny and beautiful! I’m so happy with this food and I’ll definitely be sticking with it!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from My dog loves this food! Although, I think he'd love anything we put in front of him - he just loves to eat. We were having stomach/digestive issues with him for several months, tried all kinds of food including expensive RX stuff and nothing seemed to work. We thought it was food related for awhile, but finally resolved the issue but have kept him on this food since. It is slightly more expensive compared to average food brands (still cheaper than RX), but he likes it and his stomach is back to normal, so we'll keep him on it for now.

Now I’m only adding the glucosamine and Porden to their food with some pumpkin. Well be changing the Cat also to the Lowland.. Thank You for

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Our 3 giant breed dogs love it We have been feeding taste of the wild for many years now. Our 2 English mastiffs free feed as does the great Pyrenees. They always have a clean bill of health. My only complaint is the price either has and the weight in the given bag sneakily down or the price goes up. Up to $50 for a 28 lb bag now and I am considering changing brands because of it.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from The day I got this VoxBox from Influenster, I fed it to my sweet pup for dinner. She has a tendency to be fairly picky so shell often come to eat a little, then walk away with a partially empty bowl. She gobbled this up quickly, but admittedly, it was a smaller portion given that shes a larger breed. She didnt seem SO interested in Taste of the Wild that she turned her nose up to her typical brand after trying this sample, but she didnt reject it either. All in all, Id say it was a fair sample and Id consider buying again!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from My girl loved this food! Typically with salmon food, you get a very strong fishy smell and I didnt smell anything personally. Typically I do mix in new food with her existing food but with this one, I gave it to her straight away. She did not have any signs of an upset stomach. We will definitely be purchasing a bag of our own!

Rated 3 out of 5 by from My dog did not have the best reaction to this food. Since he is still a puppy, we are weary about introducing new ingredients one of which is fish. I used these as training treats since they are small and easy to grab. He loved them and seems like they were easy to eat for him. However after a couple of days he became super itchy, to the point where he developed a hotspot on his leg. I am not a vet but I assumed that since this was the only new thing I gave him that this is probably what was making him so itchy.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from This product was a great for my pup. He is actually on diet food but I decided to just let him enjoy his treat. My dog absolutely loved this. He enjoyed every last piece of it. This went way above my expectations. After consulting with his vet we decided to change his food to this and limit his amount. My pup thanks you for this amazing sample. We actually went and bought the biggest bag we could find at the local pet shop. ( we received this product complimentary for testing purposes). #WildForAncientGrains

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Helped our dog’s belly and itching issues! Due to crazy pricing increases, we needed to switch our dog’s food while maintaining the quality of ingredients. Our dog has year round allergies and a sensitive belly. Switching to Taste of the Wild not only helped our bank account, but unexpectedly helped our dog’s itching and gas! Win win!

Hi I have my dog on your bison grain food can I mix it with your salmon food?

Asked by: KAM88
Hello, thanks for contacting us. We do not recommend feeding your pet a mixture of two dry products at once; however, if you would like to follow a rotation diet and transition to another recipe, we recommend a gradual transition between recipes over a period of 7-10 days.
