Costco Has a New Grain Free Kibble

Costco now has a new grain free kibble available called Nature's Domain. It's only available in a salmon & sweet potato formula for anyone that is interested ....

Looks pretty good . I am always a bit leary of foods made by Diamond Foods but costco makes a great product for a fair price for those who need a more affordable food. Definately much better then a lot of the mid-range foods .

I know ....I'm leary of their plants as well but there are lots here that feed the Kirkland brand without any problems so now they have another option.

I might even point this out to my mom and have her rotate it through with the other kibbles she feeds .

I don't know, looks good, but says my dog would need 3-4 cups a day, with Orijen I only need half that amount, so I don't know if it would even be worth it.

But it looks much better then some of those grocery store brands

Great but costco always seems to have better quality food for dogs than for cats...what about the kitties??

I used to feed kirkland way back when..if they provided better options for cats too I would probably switch foods.

Looking at the chart the Bassets' would need 4 - 5 cups per day, currently they get 2 cups of Acana per day with some canned/cooked added and they are still overweight ...........I don't trust Menu Foods though

Mine also gets some can added (or he wouldn't eat it otherwise) and does get table scraps.....but would rather bury those then eat them

gardening this spring should be very interesting

Money has been awfully tight in our house lately....I would love to mix this with Orijen to make it go further. But I'm really leery of the manufactuer. Oy....

Chaser....Horizon is a Canadian manufacturer, it is also cheaper (don't know how much cheaper), the Global that I go to doesn't stock it otherwise I would give it a try.

Horizon isn't actually cheaper at my Global than Orijen. I love their product though - Rupert used to eat Legacy before all his weird allergy stuff started - but it's too pricey to feed to both dogs.

I think I'll wait a bit and see how this new Costco one does. If there are no complaints/horror stories after a while I might mix it with Orijen. It's a tough call though

Hmmm....I always thought it was, thanks for the heads up.

I agree ....I also would have to feed my boys twice as much according to their chart so not worth it imo.

I also wouldn't feed it because of the manufacturer .....like I've said over and over here "it is best to feed something that is made at the company's own manufacturing plant.

Horizon Legacy wasn't cheaper than Orijen here either the last time I looked. We've had to switch to Acana Provincial (and sometimes regular Acana) because of our income situation right now but once that hopefully improves then I want to start rotating Legacy with the Orijen.

I'll do a comparison next time I'm there to check for sure. But i'm pretty sure it's either the same price or a little cheaper, but I think you need to feed more than with Orijen so in the end it's more expensive.

Agreed - I really love Legacy. Really great quality, and I would like to offer the dogs more variety and not have them eating so much potato. It's nice that Horizon doesn't use it so you can vary a bit.

I wish I could switch to Acana but it's not cheaper for me here either! Seems it is out west, but for me I might as well keep feeding Orijen. It seems nothing even sort of close in quality will work out to be any cheaper

Riley gets kibble in morning and raw at night. I also buy a lot of food for my mom's dog Sam. I like to rotate through Orijen, Acana Grasslands and Horizon Legacy. Legacy is cheaper per bad here (was $56 in Dec). I just bought a bag of Acana and it jumped $4 a bag from last time .

For those thinking of the extra food. The calories are per cup:

Orijen regular - 470

Orijen fish - 460

Orijen senior - 395

Horizen Legacy - 420

Acana Grasslands - 430

Costco Grain free - 336

I heard a rumor that Costco will be carrying a new Salmon Grain Free Food.

I have been feeding Natures Domain to my dogs since Costco has in in stock. My dogs love it. I have noticed that wherever my Dogs leave a puddle or pile it kills the gras. I called the company and was told since it is grain free the dogs may have too much Nitrogen in their system and thats what kills the gras. Has anybody have the same problem. The company doesn't give you any other information.

I loved the Pelican Bay brand and when they changed to Nature's Domain, Bob's skin allergies returned and he did not like the food. Costco bring back Pelican Bay please.
