My dog REFUSES to eat + Bad stomach aches...
My dog will not eat this dog food and has poor digestive issues after eating. My husky does not seem to like this dog food/chow, I'd even try to mix in wet food that she likes but she picks out the wet food and deliberately avoids the chow! And after I finally manage to get her to eat the dog chow, she ends up getting bad gas, diarrhea, and stomach aches. This chow is horrible.

This food has made both of my dogs very sick
This food has made both of my dogs very sick. One has bloody diarrhea, the other suffered a severe seizure. Since this food was the only variable introduced and the fact that both have reacted like they were poisoned, I can only come to the conclusion that this food is to blame.

One of my dogs broke out in a red rash both itches
I've always had my dog's one Purina dog food. One of my dogs is 14 the other one is 6 years old. Well I changed it to this flavor for something different in flavor, since they were getting tired of the chicken. I've noticed my 6 years old dog started to break out in a rash all over his skin, started to turn read and around his mouth. Both dogs started to scratch and itch I will go back to the other Purina healthy weight dog food

Dogs like this food
All 3 of my dogs have been on this brand and flavor for years. I feel like my dogs have maintained good weights, good bowel movements, and healthy lives. In my personal opinion purina is a good brand. The only thing I do not like is when ordering online to ship it does not come boxed (target) it comes in the bag with a label.

It fed the dogs on a budget friendly level
Affordable and easy to find, and my dog seems to enjoy it. Not the cleanest ingredient list, but it gets the job done. Good for people on a budget or feeding multiple dogs.

My dogs favorite
We get this for my 8 year old farm dog and he loves it. Our bird dog also begs for it even though we get him the proplan formula. So I give a bit of it as a treat! I think it's the beef flavor as neither of them liked the chicken flavored one.

Will Not Buy Again
This is the second bag of dog food - this brand and flavor - that smelled strange upon opening. Additionally, the same type of bug(s) have crawled out from the bag. The first time this happened, I asked - and received - a refund. However, this time I will just not purchase again. The dog food itself does not look like it should and has white substances in the food, almost like rope or cloth that’s mixed in there. Pictures were taken immediately at time the bag was opened.

Wouldn't Recommend
We thought we would try the beef flavor dog food, but they didn’t like it at all. They would hardly eat the dog food and our pups aren’t picky eaters.

Has chicken when beef flavored
Says that it beef flavor but has chicken by product in it. I have a dog with allergies and I am pretty sure that he is allergic to chicken. Put beef and chicken flavor on the package to be more clear to consumers. I am not sure if I initially misread or if you changed formula to include chicken but my dog used to do better on this food then got worse. Also the last bag one of German shepherds that is not a picky eater doesn't seem to enjoy as much for the past couple bags.

Great dog food
I have been feeding Purina dog chow to my dogs for over 25 yrs. My Parents fed Ralton Purina years ago to their dogs. Purina dog chow is gd dog food for dogs it's wallet friendly most importantly it's nutritious for my puggles which by the way they have sensitive digestive systems. They do gd on Purina dog chow. I'm not sure why all the negative comments whenever you switch your dog to a new dog food you must transition them you can't just switch them you have to gradually transition them otherwise you will cause your dog to have stomach upset on the bag it tells you how to transition your dogs to the new food. Purina makes good puppy food and good dog foods.

This is like gold to find now, but I can always count on finding it in store or online at Target. I don’t even try to find it anywhere else now. It’s the only food that works well on all of my dogs tummies.

Good Dog Chow
My German Shepherd loves this stuff, a lot of other foods disagree with him (rash & toilet problems) but we've never had any issues with this one. It's also the only food he'll dive right into, everything else he just picks at until he's hungry enough to finish it

Something has changed
I have served this beef and chicken complete adult to my dogs for years, they seem to like it and for the price the bags at Sam's can't be beat. It just went up 5 bucks a bag and for the first time in their lives my dogs aren't finishing their bowls. I noticed the bag (of beef flavor) appears to have hundreds of these spongy things that look like chicken nuggets. They have not been there for years. I can just barely rip them apart they are so tough and they seem to be bread. Are they suddenly using bread to fill the bags cheaper? And is it swelling in the dogs stomach so they eat less? I'm not crazy about this all of a sudden. And these aren't random clumps. I can't put a hand in without coming up with three or four. There are a LOT.
