I have a 5 yr old Rottie who six months ago underwent acl surgery. She was on Rimadyl and was doing okay. I put her on the Arthro aid because of the ingredients and she is doing great!! She is getting on the beds, playing and running in the backyard again and is a much happier dog and it is shows since stopping the rimadyl. Dr. Franks ingredients are good but just mask the symptoms and don't fix the problem. The Arthro Aid has the gloucosimine/chondroitin as well as quite a few other items that help rebuild the joints and muscles rather than just mask the pain. So if you wanna help your dog rebuild then you get the Arthro aid. It is great stuff and all natural.
My dogs love your food, at 5+ years old they exude energy, their coats are wonderful, and I feel good that the ingredients are so healthful.
Thanks,

We have 2 pugs and one is 16 years old. She had pug encephalitis when she was a baby and they said she wouldn’t live passed a year but we have taken such good care of her with vitamins etc and she has lived far beyond the life expectancy of the average pug. In the past 2 years she has eatten very little no matter what we feed her and she is just all ribs and bones. We recently got your food and she dives into it! She has gained 3 lbs in one month and her ribs don’t stick out anymore. This food is incredible!

Charlie is fine. He is doing well on the Unleashed, we are feeding him the Lamb and using the Buffalo for a treat on occasion. He has the nicest poop! His coat looks good and the hint of pink under his white fur has decreased. I think that it is really agreeing with him. He is full of energy and loving life.

The dogs seem to be doing great on Great Life Grain Free Food. I am using that in the morning and then at night they get Embark with Chicken mixed in. They seem like very happy healthy pups right now :) And they have good poops, too.

I called my vet to ask her a simple question. What food does she suggest I feed my dogs, since I now feed Great Life and want to know if she agrees with the choice or would recommend a better dog food? My vet left me a voicemail that she had some reservations about Great Life food. She wondered aloud if Great Life had done any large-scale published nutritional studies like Purina, Eukanuba, Science Diet, Iams and (another brand name I cannot recall) have completed. When I listened to her voicemail, I was pretty shocked at her dog food suggestions. Her statement about the studies made me recall the tobacco companies' published health studies which concluded smoking wasn't dangerous. Considering both my dogs got hot spots when I fed them Eukanuba and Iams, I went to talk to my vet in person. I confronted my vet with a list of ingredients from the 5 different "big name" brands she mentioned. She was floored to see the amount of crap in the dog foods she suggested. As you may know, ingredients are listed in order of highest percentage ingredient by weight. When I showed her the "premium" ingredients from the brands she suggested versus the ingredients contained in Great Life, she was speechless. I told her that as a trained chemist I'd rather feed my dogs a dog food that contained cranberries and blueberries instead of Purina's "added color (Red 40, Yellow 5, Blue 2)" Half-Jokingly, I told her that my wife and I were thinking of eating Great Life given the quality of ingredients. As any medical professional, she didn't want to admit that there might be something to better nutrition, but I definitely made her rethink her responses to me and she backpedaled on her earlier position and suggested that if Great Life isn't causing problems then I may want to continue to feed it to them. The more entertaining part was once she was out of earshot one of her vet techs who overheard us asked me for the brand name and store where I got the food, so he could give it to his dog.

This food is wonderful. I have a 2 year old Shar-Pei mix with a history of both food and environmental allergies. We had him on Wellness shortly after we got him, and he shed so much due to his constant itchiness that he nearly went bald! Additionally, he had chronic colitis and his skin scratched very easily. Since feeding him Great Life, he is less itchy, sheds less, and his stools are always firm and dark. His thicker coat means that I haven't constantly been after him with hydrogen peroxide to disinfect all his little cuts and scratches. In addition to the Great Life, we supplement with Transfer Factor Canine Complete, and the results have been amazing. If your dog has allergies, this is a diet that I would definitely recommend.
