Q: I have been using this for about a year now and my dogs do great eating it. I went the other day to get a bag and they were out. So i tried the Large Breed Adult formula. Since i made the change, my 2 dogs have had runny poop. What should i do?

    A: Thank you for your inquiry. An abrupt change in food can cause digestive issues in some dogs, it is best to transition make a slow transition - if you can check back to see if your original food is back in stock and mix them, it should help.

Wonderful Food

9 days ago
I started this food again because I found it on sale with Chewy. My dogs are doing excellent! Coats look absolutely amazing, poop hasn't changed and always solid, less shedding, more energetic and bright eyes. I never have to add toppers or can food because they run to their bowls when I put them down and gobble it up.

Yes, I recommend this product.

I decided to give Black Gold Original Performance formula to try for my dog,and so far, it’s a good experience. My dog seems enjoy the taste and eats without any hesitation. I also like that it’s designed to support active dogs and their nutritional needs im happy with this food and i considering continuing to use it. Great texture, good digestion, and reliable quality for my dog.
