Holistic SelectNatural Dry Dog Food, Large & Giant Breed Adult Recipe, 30-Pound Bag

My 5-month old Doberman (male) had ongoing issues with his digestion and watery stools since we adopted him at 8 weeks old. Our vet prescribed him Hill's Prescription I/D and two occasions and it hardened his stools for about a week. After switching him back to Science Diet Large Breed Puppy food, his stools became soft and watery again. About a month ago, I came across great reviews about Holistic dog food and ordered it through Amazon. Within 3 days of mixing the Holistic food with the Science Diet Large Breed Puppy food, my male began to have good solid stools. This was 3 weeks ago and so far, so good. I know it's different for every dog, however I would encourage you to try Holistic dog food.UPDATE March 25, 2019It's nearly 5 months since our Doberman was switched to Holistic. It's doing very well for his stools and his coat is great! This may not work for all dogs but this certainly works well for our Doberman.

Our Dane loves this food!We have a 3 year old Great Dane. She isn’t food driven, so getting her to eat the necessary amount of vitamins daily has been a challenge, additionally she’s allergic to sweet potato (vomiting/diarrhea) and regular potato (skin rash), which is literally in almost every single dog food or treat. She was also starting to shows signs of joint discomfort. Did some research and decided to give this a try. We also incorporated Next level, vitamin c powder, and a scoop of Whole Foods 2 ingredient Beef, Lentil wet. Thankfully we have found the winning combination!! She always finishes her bowl and is back to a healthy weight, joint stiffness is gone, and we’ve had no gi or skin disruptions since the switch. Highly recommend for big sensitive dogs!

My two dobies have been eating this food for about 8+ years. The dog in the front of the pic is 10 yrs old. The one behind her is 8 yrs old. They gobble it down and have never rejected this food. They each weigh between 65-70 lbs and eat about 3.5-4 cups a day depending on how much running they do. They have been doing very well on this food and look fantastic for their ages. I highly recommend it for Dobermans.

We have fed Holistic Select for 5yrs now - from the time our Great Danes were puppies. Most Great Danes I see are either a little thin or a little heavy. Ours are just right - filled out in the right places with a terrific waistline.We feed our Danes from 5-7 cups of food each per day, combined with a 1/2 can each of Holistic Select canned food. This combination adds moisture content to their meals which reduces the amount of water they need to consume with their meals and helps to keep away the dreaded bloat.Holistic Select helps promote joint health with Glucosamine and Chondrotin, as well as keep their coats shiny. If you check the Whole Dog Journal (the discerning dog owners resource for dog food ratings, Holistic Select makes their list). I would recommend this food to any dog owner - which version you use depends on your dog. If you have a Great Dane or Large Breed dog, I would recommend no other food. If you are going to switch your dog's food, do it gradually over a couple of weeks and try using Holistic Select Transition powder which will help your dog maintain a balanced intestinal tract during the food transition.

When we first started buying this food for our dog, he gobbled it down; breakfast, lunch, and dinner. This latest bag has a very chemical-like odor, and he will not eat it until he is VERY hungry....definitely not like the past. He has also had cases of vomiting, but I cannot confirm if it is because of the food.

One of the only QUALITY dog foods I will buy for my 3 great danes. Most foods have too much "filler ingredients " this food has multiple names meat proteins and NO artifical ingredients, preservatives and NO corn, wheat. soy, or gluten. What you feed your dog matters so read the ingredients list. Dog food is not regulated like human food is....and it's a shame what some companies straight out LIE to the consumers about the health of their fur babies and the dog food they buy...This dog food however is good quality and decently priced also. Do your research people, your pets health maybe on the line.

I have an English Mastiff (actually adopted as a six week old puppy from a shelter, long story with a happy ending!). I started her on Holistic Select's Large Breed Puppy food when I first got her, because a number of breeders recommended it. She is the healthiest dog you have ever met!! She is now two and a half years old and we have had no health issues at all. The other wonderful thing about her is, although mastiff's have a reputation for being couch potatoes, she is a running fool!! I believe the Holistic Select food got her off to a good start and has continued to provide her with the excellent nutrition she needs to keep that very big body moving. We do add a dollop of no fat plain yogurt to her food to help with gas (mastiffs tend to have problems with that!) Other than that, the only other thing she gets to eat are Milk Bones for treats to reward good behavior. I really do believe that, although the food is a bit expensive, it has saved us in veterinarian bills. Buying it on Amazon makes it a little less expensive and much more convenient since we live in a rural county.

My year old Airedale has moved on from her Holistic Select Large Breed Puppy food to this adult food. She loves the food, and it has provided her with the proper nutrition and seems to be easily digestable for her. This brand was recommended by our vet, who explained the ingredient list, and what we did and did not want to see. Our girl has a lot of energy, is happy, has a beautiful coat, and has blossomed from the 9 week old puppy we brought home into a beautiful one year old. Purchasing from Amazon is so easy... for the same price I have the food delivered right to my door.... how convenient!
