We'd love to share that we intentionally include fish meal in our dry kibble recipes, as they provide extra nutrition! Fish meal, fish with the water removed, is a concentrated source of amino acids needed for healthy muscles and is a highly concentrated source of animal protein! There are many species of whitefish available. We source primarily hake or the freshest whitefish based on seasonal availability. Our whitefish meal is sustainably sourced and always ocean-caught, never farmed.

We rely on AAFCO guidelines for all our formulation requirements. The protein named in the title of our Recipe makes up at minimum 25% of the recipe per their guidelines!

Reviews

Good food, horrible shipping packaging

"My dogs like the food. I like that you can rotate between proteins easily. But this was my 3rd shipment/delivery & the box, no the cardboard enclosure, there was no actual box was mangled again. Wish I could attach a picture. Product needs to be packed securely in a stronger real box!"

Karen T. (4/5)

New Favorite

"​This kibble is officially Chance’s new favorite! He’s so excited for dinner now, and it’s the perfect way to break up the monotony of his old routine. We love mixing it with some fresh fruit and Greek yogurt for a meal he truly looks forward to every night."

Anais G. (5/5)

The food that keeps on giving!

"I initially chose this food because it seemed like the quality was great and upon receiving the food, I can still agree with that!! my dog however, was not a fan of the taste, but she has never been a fan of anything beef flavored so we are going to try a chicken flavor or any flavor really till we find the right fit! Shipping took a little longer than what I’m used to but still reasonable! Very happy overall :)"

Priscilla A. (5/5)

ALL THREE OF MY DOGS ENJOY IT

"I stopped giving my dogs kibble after three out of six of my dogs got cancer and I learned that to increase profits numerous dog food companies had substituted inferior ingredients from what they previously used. But my new dog needs training and the trainer wants me to feed her meals by giving her kibble throughout the day instead of eating from a bowl. So I started giving this kibble to my one year old rescue. But then I started thinking that it contained nutrients my older dogs needed. So I added it to their human grade food. They also liked it and it seemed to add a little pep to their step. They’re 14 and 15."

Paula G. (5/5)

MY PICKY EATER LOVES THIS FOOD!

"My holistic vet suggested your food because my little Maltese was so picky and often had acid reflux at night. This has totally stopped now, so I will be keeping her on this food. The vet suggested the grass fed beef w/ ancient grains recipe. Thanks Open Farm!"

Mary B. (5/5)

Great food

"My dog loved this food immediately! We appreciate Open Farm's transparency about ingredients and food sourcing. The price is also not bad for the quality of food you're getting"

Alberta D. (5/5)

Love it but it’s pricey!

"Our dogs started this food about 6 weeks ago. They are tolerating it well and seem to enjoy it! However, it’s breaking the bank. Since we have three dogs, we have to order a 22 lb. bag every three weeks. It’s about $90. 00 every three weeks. The previous brand that we used was a 25 lb. bag that auto shipped for $67. 00 every three weeks. We’ve had to cut back their feeding amount to make it work."

COURTNEY W. (4/5)

The only dry food I’ll feed my dog

"Our rescue was on a much lower quality food when we got her, and let’s just say ‘the proof was in the pudding’. We gradually switched her over to Open Farm and with each shift from the old food to the new, you could tell her digestion was better. She loves the taste and we love knowing she’s getting the best dry food available with lots of healthy ingredients."

Erika C. (5/5)

So far! So good!

"I am very concerned that my dog is fed really good nutrition with plenty of protein! She is enjoying her new food and that is important as well! She is only 3 so her energy level is very good! We are hoping for a long relationship with Open Farm Dog Food 😊"

Kathy C. (5/5)

So far so good

"I recently ordered this food to see if I notice any improvement in my dogs inflamed/irritated skin we have been battling for some time. While it’s early on and hard to say as I’m still mixing the food with the old food trying to use it up he does seem to really like it. After finishing his food he went to the closet where I keep it and sniffed around hoping to find more! I do notice the kibble has a better smell, like you can tell it’s made with better ingredients. I’ll be back to add to my review once we finish our previous food. I might also order a different kind like kangaroo if they have it or bison. We ordered the beef this time."

Q&A

Wolves do not have the option to eat cooked food. We feed raw. What makes your cooked kibble different. Most of the Nutrients are cooked out?
Our team has reached out via email- so keep an eye on your inbox!
I have been feeding my big guy german shepherd your ancient grains beef for 3 years but would like to know if all your kibble size is so small I'm sure it would be better for him to have a larger size kibble.
We currently only offer one size of kibble for our Dry Recipes but our kibble was specifically designed for dogs of all sizes including larger breeds. You can rest assured that we have run many tests and trials to ensure that the food is healthy for both small and large dogs. Smaller kibble, like ours, can be seen in higher quality, high protein recipes as it allows us to cook our kibble at a lower temperature for a shorter period of time!
