    We had the opportunity to test out this new product for the past 2 weeks and have been very happy with it! Firstly, this product is Grain-Free - the first 13 ingredients are meat and then chock full of vegetables! I was incredibly pleased to see that this wasn't full of filler and my girl was eating better than I was!!

    We started off by adding small amounts of the new food to her existing brand, in order to ease the transition and avoid any upset stomach. Since she already suffers from sensitive tummy issues, that's always a concern, but we didn't have any issues with this, despite/because of the high protein and fibre content, things were A-ok on that front. She also chose to meticulously pick out all the tiny "new" kibble first, since it obviously smelled appealing and was probably seen as a treat.

    One thing I did notice was that her coat was noticeably softer. It's been said that gluten can definitely have a negative affect on human hair and skin so I was not surprised to see this as a side effect of the new food. Three visitors to the house also mentioned she was "so soft". I consider her short coat to be typically bristly so it was nice that others noticed it too!

    It's always hard to tell if food ever changes her energy levels, as being a boxer, she always has the go-go-go characteristics of a puppy, but there were no negative changes to her demeanor so that's always a plus!

    My only qualms about this product is obviously the price. At $31.00/ 2.27 kg bag, if we were to purchase the same size bag that we do of her current food (13.60 kgs) it would cost us almost $200/mth!!! That's three times the amount currently being spent. While I do realize that you're obviously paying more for quality ingredients, that's quite the jump to consider.

    Overall, we were really impressed with this product and Finley LOVED IT!!! I would not hesitate to recommend this product to anyone looking to make the move to a Grain-Free dog food!
    *While we were provided this product free to test and review, all thoughts and opinions are my own and I was not compensated in any manner for a positive review.

    We have been feeding another grain free dog food to our 8 yr old beagle for the past year. We tried Nutrience Sub Zero and he absolutely loved it. The small size of the kibble is perfect for him as he is very picky and won't eat large kibble. The food had a great smell to it. We found that his bowel mo events stayed smaller as they have since feeding grain free food. It is a little pricey but the quality of ingredients causes this. Bandit loves it so we would buy it again.

    So i normally feed all of my pets Acana because i am super picky about what they eat. Upon seeing this chickadvisor campaign i immediately went to check out this food ( no sense signing up if i wouldnt feed it to my pets). Now im going to be very honest here and in the past Nutrience was not a brand i would touch with a 10 foot pool. It was on the same level and Nutro and Iams and that is so loaded with garbage i just wouldnt go there. I was pleasantly surprised to see that Nutrience has come so far in the animal world. My pets loved the food and i happily fed it to them. I have 6 dogs, 5 Chihuahua and 1 German Shepherd... every single one loved it and no one had any adverse reactions to it. Way to go Nutrience THIS is something we can feel good about feeding our pets. A+

    I love the ingredients in this and My Dog loved the taste, she didn't say so :) but she's a princess and if she doesn't like something she won't eat it! I also found that she has less gas now so that is a win-win for everyone involved

    So my dog Lucky is usally a pretty picky eater when it comes to dog foods.
    Yet he eats everything he can find outside in the backyard. Usually wood chips and grass.
    He unfortunately has some food sensitivity to grains and grain fed animals like chicken.
    I was so happy when given the opportunity to review their fish based product line "Canadian Pacific"
    Slowly introducing it to him as treats at first and then slowly adding it into his meal.
    He seems to love it! No fuss over walking over to the bowl only to walk away and look up at me with that expression of "Don't you love me?Why?" This time i walked over to the bowl and it was completely empty!
    The only negative thing i find would be the price can be pretty steep compared to other dog foods.
    If it stops his itching I would have to say it's great no matter what! Fingers crossed. :)

    Nutrience is an amazing brand of dog food. I tried feeding raw but it was just messy and my one dog became a little fussy about it. With Nutrience, i get the benefit of feeding raw without having to deal with the mess and raw meat smell. I love the natural ingredients. My 2 dogs love the taste of Nutrience Grain Free Canadian Pacific. The only down side is the price. It is just a bit too expensive for my liking but it is definitely a brand I would consider buying.

    I substituted Subzero dog food for my regular dog food for a week. He loves it! I can't get him to get back to his regular food. The ingredients are of high quality, has meat in there for protein and has no fillers - such as grain! And also to note we are very happy we are supporting a Canadian company!

    I introduced Prairie Red to our dog (Siberian Husky) as a treat and slowly incorporated into her regular food as recommended. I noticed that she started picking through her food and only ate the Prairie Red and left her regular food in the bowl. This continued to happen. Whenever l pick up the bag she always came running waiting for me to place it in her bowl. This has been the first time she has enjoyed and eaten her food in its entirety. I have noticed she seems to have more energy. I highly recommend this product and will purchase it with the coupon provided.
    Thank you for giving me the opportunity to review this product and hopefully l will have other opportunities for other product reviews.

    I received the Canadian Pacific Nutrience Grain Free SubZero Dog Food. First off, I love the natural ingredients in this. My dog is a super picky eater so I try and buy wholesome food and treats for my dog and nutrience has fit the bill for me. I have a pom so the kibble size is just right for him. I think this is a great dog food as it is pretty comparable in price for a grain free dog food. I like how they offer a free bag for every 10 bags bought. It was a pretty good transition as well I like to start off feeding my dog it as treats he always thinks it's more special that way.

    I have a 7 year old Goldendoodle. He loves the Nutrience Grain Free food(in chicken flavor). I started him off as a treat and he loves it already. When I slowly increase it so he can adjust to his new food, I notice he goes for the these first before his regular food. Noticed a healthier "bowel movement" within 3 days after his first try. Knowing that his new food is grain free and healthier makes me feel great in feeding him this.
