    This food is of highest quality I have seen and the fish formula that has a great glucosamine content is especially appreciated as it is hard to find a good quality food with the ingredients you are looking for. The only qualm I have is the price,it is quite expensive for the amount you receive. Paying for quality just goes with the territory but there are just as good (not quite the quality of Nutrience tho) of food available for a much better price.

    This food made my dogs coat and energy levels go up since feeding it to them. The small kibbles and freeze dried bits were awesome for my min pin and 12 week old puppy. The loved the taste you could tell they were always ready for breakfast and dinner before I was lol would definitely recommend this food

    I have two small Chihuahuas. The oldest one is extremely picky. Sometimes when I feed her I feel like she's giving me a disappointing look and refuses to eat. I decided to try Nutrience and, surprisingly, my dumb chihuahua enjoyed it and started eating. Now she looks healthier and her fur got brighter. I really recommend it for picky dogs.

    As part of the Product Review Club, I received the Canadian Pacific formula for my border collie x shepherd.

    This food is higher in protein compared to my dog's regular food, so I was expecting her to eat a little less, however she devoured this food! It's also about $12 more than what she currently gets (for the largest bag)

    Ingredients listed include "Salmon, herring, hake, sole, cod, flounder, sebastes, cod liver [...] ". It doesn't say if these are whole or de-boned. I'm hoping that it's whole as it's actually better for dogs as the bones contain glucosamine.

    Unfortunately, the food barely lasted 1 week, so we didn't notice any difference in her coat or her poops.

    Overall, she liked it, but we're not sure if we'd be making the switch anytime soon.

    I received Nutrience grain free subzero dog food from Chick Advisor and My labradoodle loves it! She eats it quickly and eagerly. The kibble is small and does not upset her stomach. She was on very healthy kibble before and this seems fairly comparable. I will need to test longer than two weeks but so far so good. It doesn't smell good to humans as like any other dog food but it smells delicious to my dog. I like the ingredient content and will definitely consider this in the future.

    This review is for the Fraser Valley flavour

    Firstly I am really impressed with the ingredient panel! They say that the first 5 ingredients are the most important and the first line and a half are all meat and fish! There is a mix of whole meats and meals which is a good balance. On top of the high ratio of meat/fish there is plenty of other great ingredients too.

    My dog (a Rottweiler) really enjoyed this food! Unfortunately the kibble size (small) mixed with her enthusiasm caused her to basically swallow the food without chewing it. This led to a bit of gas and some vomiting.

    I haven't noticed a change in her activity levels and honestly I'm glad, she's hyper enough naturally! Her coat does look shiny and feel quite nice which I assume has to do with all the omegas in the food.

    This is a great food and certainly worth the money it costs. Unfortunately, I likely won't purchase it for my current dog because she requires a larger sized kibble.

    *I received this free in exchange for my honest review

    My dog loved this food when I got the sample which was a full bag! I was unsure about it as it had a very fishy smell to it, but as soon as my dog smelt it even through the bag he loved it! I did not love the price although because the small bag is 30 dollars

    My dog is currently on Blue Buffalo senior dry food. I am slowly working this into her diet. I researched extensively the ingredients and found Nutrience a better food. No grains, more protein which is what dogs are meant to eat anyways. Hoping that once she is totally switched over, her dry winter skin will settle down due to more protein. I will review again in a few weeks but looking forward to positive results.

    I received the Nutrience Sub Zero Prairie Red formula for free to try with my dogs. This is my own opinion based on the 10 days I have been using it.
    I have a 9 year old Husky cross and a 1 year old Sheltie cross. Both of my dogs loved it. During the transition period, I would find that they had picked out the Nutrience and left behind the previous brand (we buy in bulk at Costco). My 9 year old dog is shedding a bit less (which is a huge bonus!!!) and over the past few days, has been playing with our younger dog (very unusual as he is like a grumpy old man). My little dog seems to have a shinier coat. I don't see much change in his behaviour, he has lots of energy all of the time. I can say that they seem to be needing "outside" less.
    The food smells good, like meat. We previously used a high end dog food and I feel the Sub Zero has a "real" food aroma. I loved the list of ingredients. My dogs have really enjoyed the taste. I would definately buy it again, although I will have to rearrange my budget quite a bit to do so. The quality is amazing but a small bag is $30. It is worth it though. I am really impressed by this food.
    The only thing I wasn't pleased with was not being able to find any instruction on portion sizes. It was a guessing game to figure out how much to feed them. I was very impressed with the transition information.
    I will buy this, in bulk.
