Ketona Chicken Recipe Adult Dry Dog Food, Natural, Low Carb (only 5%), High Protein (46%), Grain-Free, The Nutrition of a Raw Diet with The Cost and Convenience of a Kibble; 4.2lb

I can’t say enough about this dog food. I have read and searched for a true low carb dog food for my 11 year old active Springer Spaniels. After researching extensively over the years for quality dog food, I made the conclusion that I would need to start making my own food to keep my Springer babies healthy. I was reluctant to go this route because of how complicated it can be to provide the essential nutrients for aging dogs. I had followed Daniel Schulof a bit and liked his story. When he created this dog food, I was thrilled. Based on what I had read, I trusted his judgement more than the big companies.Fast forward to 9 months of feeding my dogs Ketona. I will preface this with the fact that my dogs are active. They do 5 to 7 miles a day on leash and running wild change birds on the beach in South Georgia. They both have food sensitivity and started to gain weight. Lots of weight compared to their activity level. Other dog foods were not satisfying their hunger so at times I was over feeding them. Their coats were dull and they were beginning to have fatty lumps all over their bodies. Since the switch, they are back to a normal, fit weight. The fatty lumps have reduced and some have gone away. Their coats are once again soft and shiny. My female was showing signs of weakening back legs. The constant tremors were scaring me. The vet told me I needed to cut back her exercise drastically. I did for a while until I could get her back to a normal weight. Her back legs rarely shake and she is happily chasing her tennis ball again since I switched to this food.This food is a little more expensive but it is cheaper than a raw diet. It is well worth the convenience. I have 11 year old dogs that most people think are 5. I can’t wait for my vet to see them next week. She was not on board with all my food experimentation. Like most vets, she has been trained to recommend food that doesn’t make sense for dogs.

This dog food is the best dog food on the planet. My dog suffers from severe diabetes. Hills prescription dog food was no help for my dog at all. After hours and hours of scientific research on the internet, this dog food was recommended for dogs with diabetes. This is the ONLY dog food that helps get my dog’s glucose level back to normal. It’s the closest thing to a raw dog food diet on the market. It’s 46% protein. It’s expensive but it’s worth it. However Hill’s dog food is the same price. As far as the taste, I’m assuming it’s pretty good since my dog eats every bite at every meal. There is no smell to it whatsoever. I’ve even told my veterinarian about it and suggested they sell it. I order from Amazon because I can get it quicker from amazon than from Chewey, and I love Chewey. All I know is this: when my dog is on this food and NOTHING else, along with his insulin, his glucose level actually stays in the “normal” range. On ALL other brands, his glucose level stays in the 400-600 range. One last note. At 85 pounds, on Ketona, he requires less dog food than what he requires with other brands. That does offset the cost somewhat.

Update #2: My dog has now been on Ketona for a year and a half. He loves it and he doesn’t have any health issues. Still no seizures. He gets a little drizzle of hemp oil on his food along with some powder to keep his teeth clean. I’ve thought about switching him to a fresh food or raw food, but he’s doing so well on Ketona and I find it to be a fair price so I’m keeping him on it.Update: My dog has been on this food for 4 or 5 months now with no seizures, not a single one. He’s super energetic and his coat is super soft and shiny. He had been losing the fur on his ears and chest, but it’s all grown back now. I added in a salmon oil supplement for him, too. I wouldn’t risk switching to another food. He’ll be eating Ketona for as long as it’s around.My min pin started having minor seizures after eating anything with a higher carb content. While the vet wanted to start him on hardcore meds that had tons of side effects, I thought I’d try switching him to a low carb diet first. Since starting on this food, he hasn’t had any seizures or digestive upset. He loves the kibbles and looks forward to meal time. We will definitely continue buying this great food!! Just as an FYI, we feed him small chunks of cold coconut oil, hard boiled eggs, boiled chicken, and cheese for treats now since most commercial dog treats are high in carbs.

In a rush to get my two Shih Tzu puppies off of the Puppy Chow they came home with, I did a quick look around and found Ketona. Overall I like the brand, food smells much better than low quality stuff, small kibble size is perfect for my pups and poops are less but still more than I expected from a higher quality food. First bag I bought (from another website) seemed fresher than the bag I bought from Amazon. Kibble could be crushed with a spoon or strong fingers unlike the Amazon "rocks". Not saying it's Amazons fault as the expire date was still valid. Value for money? Although this food is of much better quality than most stuff on the market I'm not sure it is the best kibble my money can buy. I'm currently researching a few other brands that have a higher protein content and carbs are just as low as this one but the price is slightly less. If the price point wasn't so high I may have stayed content and never started my quest to find the ultimate kibble but its game on now.Money isn't really an issue but if I'm paying a premium I want the best. I will continue to feed this as I finish my research. At this point I wouldn't hesitate to keep this brand in my pups rotation of higher quality foods especially since there was no need to "transition", they switched over cold turkey without any digestive upset!
