Customers say

Customers overwhelmingly praise this dog food for clean, recognizable ingredients like real beef, vegetables, and fruits, with no corn, wheat, or soy. Most report noticeable health improvements including shinier coats, healthy digestion, and better energy levels, with some crediting it for resolving chronic issues like vomiting and sensitive stomachs. Dogs enthusiastically eat the food, even picky eaters, and customers appreciate the resealable packaging. A few note kibble size varies, and rare cases report digestive upset, but overall customers consider it a trusted, worthwhile choice.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have received this product in exchange for my honest review. Instinct Be Natural Dog Food has been a great choice for my dog. The ingredients are high quality, with real meat and my dog loves the taste. Since switching, I've noticed improved energy, a shiner coat and healthier digestion. The texture and sizes is just perfect for any dog. I highly recommend. #influenster #instinctbenaturall

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We had a great experience with Instinct Pet Food. My dog enjoyed the beef and barley flavor. No problems transitioning from his normal food. He sometimes has a sensitive stomach and skin but not with this product. Enjoyed seeing a natural product.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My dog loved it small easy to eat bites. My dog is older he is about 12 years old and a bit over weight so it’s nice to have something with such clean and healthy ingredients good value for the size of the bag you receive for the price point. Natural ingredients so lovely for the fur children who have allergies as the ingredients are clean and very natural.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My dog was instantly attracted to this food. I mixed it with her regular food to start and she was more interested than normal. At times she even seemed to be seeking out that food over her normal food. She really likes the smell I think, but I never noticed it. It was nice that the bag was resealable to store.

Healthy digestión

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been feeding my dog Instinct Be Natural with Added Vitamins for a while now, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. My dog absolutely loves the taste—mealtime has become something he genuinely looks forward to every day. What I appreciate most is the quality of the ingredients. Knowing that it includes natural components along with added vitamins gives me peace of mind that he’s getting balanced nutrition. Since switching to this food, I’ve noticed his coat looks shinier, his energy levels are great, and his digestion seems much healthier.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Both our dogs really seemed to enjoy this dog food and finished their portions! It’s is a good size food pebble for a medium or large dog. I like that it has real beef and vegetables and fruits in it to support a good diet for our dogs. 2/2 dogs approve!

Questions

I have been using Instinct Limited Ingredient Grain Free Lamb for the last 21/2 years for our pup CJ due to his stomach issues. Do you think this new instinct dog food be a good fit for our pup?

  1. We had a Greater Swiss Mountain Dog that had alot of stomach issues through his life, until we came across the Instinct Brand he was on Prescription food. Once he was transferred fully to Instinct he did EXCELLENT. We can't say enough good things about the whole line of Instinct products. Hope this information helps!
