High Prairie Canine Recipe with Roasted Bison & Roasted Venison is rated out of 5 by 480.Rated 5 out of 5 by Regan from Teddy Tested & Approved!!! I have such a picky dog. I got him from a rescue over 5 years ago and brought home several high quality options for him. Teddy is an obstinant Lhasa and went on hunger strike until appropriate provisions were secured for him. He approves this formula and the Wetlands. Even when I home cook for him, he appears to consider that a nice snack and heads to his bowl for his real meal. Additionally, upon switching I noticed that within a few weeks his skin issues cleared up as well as his gastro intestinal problems. I am quite pleased. Thank you for making such a great product.Date published: 2016-12-27Rated 5 out of 5 by Bridogmt from Have 3 high energy dogs who thrive on this Have 2 German Shorthair Pointers and an all American mutt who eaten this for 6 years now. Constantly on go hunting, camping off leash running. Have never had any digestive problems with any of them. The GSPs during hunting season put in long days in all kinds of weather and their energy level is great. Our mixed breed runs 4-5 miles daily with my wife and keeps up great During the Montana winter when they don't get as much activity I know this high quality food contributes to keeping their weight stable. Highly recommend if you have sporting dogs or active lifestyle.Date published: 2017-05-26Rated 5 out of 5 by Cindy from My Dogs LOVE the High Prairie Formula ! I started buying this product many years ago and my dogs ALL absolutely love it ! All of them have lived to be between 14 and 19 years old ! Through all the years of buying this product NOT ONE RECALL or the dreaded reports of any illness or deaths from this product, while I watched brand after brand of others get recalled. There are no grains and my dogs are all energetic, at a great weight and their coats are shining. I would NEVER use any other dry dog food because I love my dogs. To me they are family members!Date published: 2017-02-25Rated 5 out of 5 by earthdog50 from Trusted Brand As a show/breeder of Jack Russell terriers, it was important for me to find a high quality dry dog food that would work for my terriers. I have been feeding Taste of the Wild High Prairie for years and my dogs thrive on it. It’s a well balanced food, I love the fact that purified water is used and taurine is added. Hard to find a brand that hasn’t been recalled at some time, but TOTW is one of the few. I recommend it to all our puppy buyers and put a bag of the puppy version in all our puppy packages.Date published: 2018-08-15Rated 5 out of 5 by Talon from All my dogs love Taste of the Wild I started feeding my last dog Taste of the Wild in 2006. He loved it and it was the only brand I've used with him until he passed in 2020, he was 15 yrs old. I now have a new dog I rescued in 2021. She is now 4 yrs old and I've been using Taste of the Wild exclusively with her since we adopted her. She loves it at least as much as our last dog and I will continue to have Taste of the Wild as her food. In all my years of dog ownership, I have never heard as many compliments on my dog's health and condition as when I started using your brand. Thank you from me and my dog ZOE. You make an absolutely amazing product.Date published: 2022-04-26Rated 2 out of 5 by KimT from Something has changed in your food Hello. I have had both my dogs on this food since they were born and they were fed this at the breeder. My older dog is suddenly experiencing symptoms of irritable bowl disease with vomiting and diarrhea coming out of no where that takes weeks to get better. She has been tested two and three times for everything under the sun. I feel like you guys have changed ingredients in your food within the last year and it is causing issues with her now. She doesn't "get into" stuff … no table scraps and her "cookies" are simply dog food kibbles. Have you changed the recipe on your foods? It seems that others have noticed a change as well based on reviews of other flavors.Date published: 2018-10-11Rated 2 out of 5 by Jaxy from Disappointed I had been feeding this food to my wolf-dog, Jackson, for years and then all of a sudden he started loosing his fur... After paying expensive vet bills, we discovered that Jackson is allergic to chicken. Upon reading the ingredients list, I found out that Taste of the Wild has been putting chicken filler in their food (For how long? I’m not sure…) This is a shame, because chicken just so happens to be the second most common food allergy in dogs. I immediately stopped purchasing this food. If this company stops putting chicken in their recipes, I’ll happily go back to the Bison and Venison formula, but until then, I’ll be feeding my dogs different food.Date published: 2023-06-11Rated 5 out of 5 by TheWizardofWY from All 3 dogs chose High prairie I have been feeding my 3 dogs a Venison based product for years. I saw this and decided to try. Over three months I gave all 3 dogs a choice. High Prairie vs their original. They chose High Prairie 100% of the time. Macro ingredient levels of this product exceed that of their previous food as well as many others.Date published: 2016-09-22How much Taste of the Wild High Prairie should I feed my 70 pound standard poodle per day?
Hello, thanks for contacting us. Our feeding guides for TOTW are listed on the packaging as well as on the individual product pages of our website. The amount listed in the feeding guide is the recommended total number of 8-ounce measuring cups (standard kitchen measuring cup) that your pet should eat per day. According to our feeding guide, your 70-pound dog will need approximately three and a half cups per day. Our feeding guides are a starting point and can be adjusted based on your pet’s activity level and body condition.Date published: 2022-07-19Do you make a large breed formula with larger morsels?
Hi, Lucille. We do not have a large kibble dog formula. All of our canine formulas are the same size (flat, round disc shape approximately the diameter of a dime). Additionally, all of our formulas are formulated to meet the nutritional needs of large breed dogs.Date published: 2017-09-13I accidentally purchased, and opened, the puppy formula ,for my 4 year old jackabee. Should I adjust the amount, l feed my dog?
Hello, thanks for contacting us. You should not need to adjust the amount you are feeding your dog, as the feeding guides for adult dogs for our High Prairie Puppy and High Prairie Canine recipes are the same. To avoid digestive upset, we recommend a gradual transition between recipes over a period of 7-10 days.Date published: 2023-01-17Our 5 yr Beagle weighs in at 41 lbs and Vet wants him to lose weight. We were feeding him 1 cup and he loved it. The Vet said feed him 3/4 cup and we don’t agree. Will 1 cup and eliminating extra people food tastes help lose weight
Hello, Lori! We recommend following your veterinarian’s suggestions for your Beagle based on his dietary needs. Measuring and controlling your pup’s total caloric intake is a great place to start. Please note, in order to lose weight, the total number of calories consumed per day must be decreased. You may want to consider trying one of our lower calorie formulas such as Pine Forrest Canine or Sierra Mountain Canine. For weight loss in general, we recommend feeding about 10-20% less than the amounts listed in the feeding guide (based on ideal body weight). However, if your dog needs to lose a large amount of weight, you may want to discuss diets specifically formulated for weight loss with your veterinarian. Additionally, we recommend leaving table scraps out of your beagle’s feeding plan and opting for a healthy, balanced diet that was designed just for pups like him. And don’t forget, exercise is also an important part of any weight loss program!Date published: 2019-01-31I have been a champion of TOTW since it became available on the market. My question is this, you state on the back of the bag that TOTW is ..."made in the USA from globally sourced ingredients" Would you please specify from where and is China excluded?
Hello and thanks for reaching out. Most of the ingredients in Taste of the Wild originate in the U.S. There are critical ingredients, however, that are not available domestically in an adequate supply or with as much quality as our international supply. In our High Prairie Canine Recipe, our roasted venison and lamb meal are sourced from Australia. In addition, there are ingredients that are critical to our recipes (i.e. folic acid and taurine) that can only be sourced out of China. Our choice is to include these ingredients or manufacture our foods without them, which, in our view, would not be in the best interest of your pet. We understand the concern about products sourced outside of the U.S. Food safety is our top priority. Our ingredients go through numerous quality assurance checks – from the time an ingredient arrives to the end process of shipping – to ensure the safety of our products.

Hi, Lizzy - thanks for your question and apologies for the delayed response. In order to ensure the safest and most nutritious food possible, we conduct feeding trials when necessary for nutritional content and palatability. These tests are observational in nature and non-invasive. The nutritional staff observes which food the dog or cat chooses to eat first when two different foods are offered to them.

Hello, many pets enjoy eating more than one flavor of Taste of the Wild! However, to avoid digestive upset, we do recommend limiting your rotation to two flavors and gradually mixing foods over a couple of weeks.Date published: 2018-05-03How much does a 370 calorie cup of dry yellow bag/High Prairie food weigh? Vet told me to use scale not measuring cup to help dog get 1000 calorie diet to loose weight.

Hi, Xiva. Thanks for your questions! Taste of the Wild is not produced with ingredients that contain gluten.
