I need advice for a food that is Meat Based, Grain Free, No Potatoes, and not a poultry food as main ingredient (no chicken or turkey). Any recommendations? I’m having a hard time finding one! THANKS

[InkedMarie]

Did you check the review side, clicking the “best grain free dry foods” link?

[Naturella]

Try Zignature – they have no grains and potatoes, and plenty of formulas with no poultry. 🙂

[Kristin S]

We are actually on Zignature right now and LOVE it. I just like to rotate and was wondering if there are other ones that meet my criteria. Thanks for helping!

InkedMarie – Unfortunately grain free dog food does not mean they are Meat Based and Potato free. 🙁

[Naturella]

How about Only Natural Pet’s Canine Power Food: http://www.onlynaturalpet.com/products/Only-Natural-Pet-Canine-PowerFood-Dry-Dog-Food/999219.aspx

two of the formulas are poultry-free.

Also, I and Love and You is pretty meaty and potato-free, at least 2 of the formulas are (I would use the Nude Food line, it is the better kibble they have).

Oops, here is a link to I and Love and You: http://www.iandloveandyou.com/product-category/dog/

Orijen is another great option, with 2 of the formulas being poultry-free; Acana has some that fit the bill; Timberwolf Organics too (but has sweet potatoes), Nature’s Variety Instinct, Farmina (has eggs) – those are all options you may wish to consider. 🙂

I have a list of foods for my dog, for whom I need to use chicken-free foods, and I would steer clear of all poultry just in case, but I have all those foods on my list, plus some more. I would share it with you, but I didn’t look for potato-free options – you can check them out and see which ones fit your bill – but the foods mentioned above are all meaty and potato-free from what I saw, so they should work for you. 🙂
