Review: designed to cater to the unique nutritional needs of small dogs - Choosing the right food for your dog, especially a picky small breed, can be incredibly challenging *and* expensive! I understand the struggle of wanting to provide quality food without breaking the bank, and I've tried countless brands, even making homemade meals, to satisfy my Pomeranian Chihuahua. She consistently preferred the cat's food, which was incredibly frustrating. That's why I was so thrilled to discover Nature's Recipe Grain Free Small Breed Chicken, Sweet Potato, and Pumpkin dog food. Honestly, I had nearly given up! Chicken is the first ingredient, providing essential protein. Sweet potatoes and pumpkin offer excellent fiber for healthy digestion. This is crucial for a dog's overall health...after all, there's a reason for different ingredients in cat kibble and dog kibble! The grain-free formula is perfect for dogs with sensitivities, and it's been gentle on my dog's stomach. The small kibbles are ideal for tiny mouths...and she really is so very tiny. She weighs all of 3 pounds soaking wet, and I'm always amazed at her little mouth. I love to watch her when she barks because her little snout looks like it's ready to drink from a drinking straw – so small pieces are so important. She has no trouble eating these bits. They really make it easy for her to chew and swallow. I appreciate that there are no artificial colors or flavors. Maybe it's a small thing, but she is such an unexpected and delightful part of my life. For someone who never thought I would ever be a dog person, she has really become a part of my soul, and I would do anything I possibly can for her. This is such a simple thing to do, and I'm not sure why all dog food isn't made without artificial flavors and colors. It gives me peace of mind knowing I'm feeding her a wholesome diet. Pickiest Eater Approved! This is the most important thing. I was able to mix this food with my cat's kibble, and my dog ate it! Over time, I was able to reduce the amount of cat food in the mixture, and now she is eating almost entirely this dog food! She is healthier, more energetic, and her breath is so much better. Additionally, it's only slightly more expensive than some other brands. Not *really* expensive like a lot of the designer brands that seem to be so popular right now, but slightly more expensive. It's a little stretch for my tight budget, but not ridiculously so. The quality and the fact that it finally got my picky dog to eat dog food makes it worth every penny. I am saving money on other brands that she would not eat. * **Finding It:** Availability can be an issue in some stores, but thankfully, it's easily accessible online. **Overall Rating: 4.7/5** Nature's Recipe Grain Free Small Breed Chicken, Sweet Potato, and Pumpkin dog food has exceeded my expectations. It's not just a good food; it's a solution for picky eaters like my dog. The quality ingredients, small kibble size, and positive impact on my dog's health make it a must-try for small breed owners. The fact that it finally convinced my dog to eat dog food is nothing short of a miracle!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does anyone know the sodium content of this food? I’ve just switched my two pups but they’ve both been drinking a lot more water than usual.**
A: I'm so glad you asked this question because that's exactly what I came on here to find out! We just switched our dogs to this food on Monday (it's Thursday now) and they all GUZZLE water now as if they just got done running a marathon. This has me highly concerned and I'm not sure if it's just a phase of us switching their food on them or if it is something else. They seem to be peeing more as well which is at least a positive sign. I'm going to reach out to the manufacturer to find out what's going on and report back my findings.

**Q: Why does this say small breed if it is the same size as the regular kibble?**
A: Unlike larger kibble, it's the perfect size for small dogs. Of course any dog can eat this delish kibble but the smaller size would be swallowed whole by large dogs. My extremely finicky 10 lb shih tzu loves this kibble. It's the only kibble she'll eat.

**Q: Made in usa**
A: It’s my understanding that the dry food and some of their canned food are made in their USA facilities, but some of their canned food is made in Thailand.

**Q: Is it totally from USA ?**
A: Great question, Sonnie! Our Nature's Recipes Grain-Free Dry Dog food is made in Topeka, KS. We source ingredients from North America but will also source internationally if the situation demands it, due to the inconsistent availability of ingredients. Regardless of location, all ingredients are inspected to ensure they meet our high-quality standards.
