A Natural Dog Food We Can Trust #WeBelieveinNB

With all the nasty pet food recalls we've seen recently and concern about where pet foods are sourced and made, it’s critical to get our pet food from a trusted source.  

I'm an avid pet food label reader, I make it my business to research what's in my pet's food and where it comes from.  I've always trusted Natural Balance Pet Food®.  I've been feeding Icy Natural Balance Pet Food for several years now.  Their food is made with premium quality ingredients like fruits, vegetables, and high quality proteins. Most importantly, I know it's safe for my pets. 


I want only the best quality pet food for my dog Icy!

This post is sponsored by Natural Balance® and the BlogPaws® Professional Pet Blogger Network™. I am being compensated for helping to share our thoughts about why we believe in Natural Balance as a quality food for our dogs, but Dogs Luv Us and We Luv Them only shares information we feel is relevant to our readers. Natural Balance Pet Foods is not responsible for the content of this article

I first discovered Natural Balance at a Pet Festival when Icy was young. I liked what they had to say about their commitment to the Quality, Nutrition, and Safety of their pet food, (and I've always liked Dick Van Patten!), so I took a few samples to try.  Icy, my finicky eater loved it, she scarfed down every morsel!  Icy is definitely a Natural Balance Dog, she loves every formula and variety of their food!  I've never found a Natural Balance formula that didn't impress me, or one that Icy didn't go bonkers for!

Natural Balance knows that the best pet food not only has to be healthy and delicious, it has to be SAFE.   With Natural Balance pet food, I know I'm feeding Icy high quality food that's safe for her. They even stand behind their food with an outstanding Feed with Confidence™  promise!  If you're not 100% satisfied with the Natural Balance pet food you've chosen, one of their Nutrition Experts can help you find the Natural Balance formula that's just right for your pet, OR they'll refund your money.




You have to see their Feed With Confidence promise, it's so impressive!  This is a company that really Get's It.  They have such a strong commitment to Quality, Nutrition, and Safety! That's what I want for my pets and I know it's what all of you want for your pets too.

Natural Balance believes so strongly in safety testing, they perform 9 different safety tests on every batch of food and treats in their state-of-the-art laboratory before it goes out the door.  They take it a step further by sharing those test results.  You can actually enter the Product Date Code Information from your bag of food online and get the test results!   How many pet food companies do THAT?? 


Natural Balance's test results for one of my bags of Natural Balance Pet Food, the L.I.D. Sweet Potato & Fish dog food!  This is a snapshot from the actual test results report!


Why do I believe in the quality of Natural Balance Pet Food so much?  Let Me Count The Why's!

** PREMIUM PROTEINS like Salmon, Chicken, Venison, Lamb, & Duck

** NUTRITIOUS VEGETABLES and GRAINS like Sweet Potato, Brown Rice, Peas, & Garbanzo Beans 

** NATURAL PRESERVATIVES and INGREDIENTS like Flax Seed, Taurine, & Salmon Oils


What you'll NEVER find in Natural Balance pet food are Artificial Flavors, Chemical Preservatives, Soy, Wheat, Corn, By-Product Meals, or other undesirable ingredients!


Visit the Natural Balance web site for more details about the wonderful high quality, nutritious ingredients in their food!  Once you do, you'll definitely want to try Natural Balance Pet Food!

Natural Balance dog food fits perfectly into Icy's healthy active lifestyle.

I want Icy and I to continue taking walks and hikes together for a long, long time.  I do everything I can to ensure she stays healthy and active.  We are what we eat, so feeding her high quality food is essential.  With an active lifestyle, she needs the premium proteins and healthy vegetables & grains in Natural Balance Pet Food!


WHICH NATURAL BALANCE FORMULA DOES ICY EAT?

On a daily basis, I feed Icy the Limited Ingredient Diets (L.I.D.) formula. I like that the L.I.D. food has simple formulas with limited ingredients.  It contains a single source protein and limited carbohydrate sources.  The L.I.D. diet helps her maintain a healthy digestion.


Icy loves all things sweet potato so I usually choose the Chicken & Sweet Potato or the Sweet Potato & Fish flavors.  I also like to mix the corresponding L.I.D. wet food with her dry food.  I like the variety and the extra moisture my dogs get with wet food.



Natural Balance makes so many varieties and formulas of pet food, you're sure to find one that's perfect for your dog.  You can even chat live with one of their expert Veterinary Technicians for help in choosing the perfect formula for your dog's unique needs and preferences!


Psst!!  Tell your friends about Natural Balance Pet Food!

The holidays are coming!  One of the best gifts to give a pet lover is a handmade treat jar.  I made one for my neighbor last year and filled it with Natural Balance treats.  I loved it so much I made a second one for my own dogs!   

DIY Treat Jars are a thoughtful gift for pet lovers!

I'm very conscious about the food I feed my pets. I'm glad you were able to find one that works for you and your pets.

Unknown said...

Looks like Icy loves Natural Balance just as much as Ivi! It is amazing food and I feel like sometimes I'm screaming from the rooftops telling people about it!

Three Chatty Cats said...

This is great info on Natural Balance. I feed one of my cats NB and she loves it!

AmyShojai said...

I've heard great things about Natural Balance and have fed it in the past especially as a special treat.

Unknown said...

I'm not sure if I've tried Natural Balance specifically but I'm always looking for the best senior foods for my dog, and I will soon be on the search - no doubt a long search - for something my new cat with severe food allergies. That I anticipate will be a journey.

Lapdog Creations said...

We've used NB wet food and treats in our rotation, and have sampled some kibble in the past. Thanks for telling us more about them!

Tonya Wilhelm said...

I am so glad you found a dog food you like. Pet nutrition is the key to a healthy and long life.

Hindy Pearson said...

Where do I start? I have seen that food but to be honest, never looked into it. I love the ingredients, the single source protein and the fact you do a lot of research before you find something you trust enough. Being able to add a bit of raw food to their diet is another appealing prospect. I love the jar, what a wonderful gift to anyone on your list with pets.

Pawesome Cats said...

It's so important to be vigilant when I comes to our pet's food and this looks like a quality brand.

Unknown said...

Natural balance is great! We recommended it first and foremost when I worked at Pet Club. Never see any recalls on it and the dogs love it!

The Daily Pip said...

Wow, nine safety tests that's amazing! I love that they have so many choices - there really is a something for everyone. Rosie just LOVES their salmon cat treats. I have tried lots of different treats with her, but these are her absolute favorites.

Sonja of MontecristoTravels said...

Great that you found something you can trust and feel good giving your dogs.

Talent Hounds said...

Natural Balance seems like such a good fit. I will definitely consider for Kilo the Pug- ticks my boxes- we are about to rotate.

MattieDog said...

LID nutrition works best for our pups - so we appreciate this approach from Natural Balance! Such great nutrition that is easily digested with good vitamin/mineral absorption (super important)!

Sweet Purrfections said...

We've tried Natural Balance and both of us like different varieties and flavors.

Unknown said...

First I didn't know Natural Balance had a limited ingredient diet - that's very cool! Also I LOVE the DIY holiday jars and I've been thinking of what I can make for folks as it's so much more fun than shopping. I love Michaels. Thanks for the idea :)

FidoseofReality said...

We are Natural Balance fans. Our dog's bestie eats the LID and thrives on it. Such a good brand and a trusted one at that.

Beth said...

We believe in Natural Balance too! The Buy With Confidence guarantee is pretty awesome, and I appreciate that they test every batch.

Tenacious Little Terrier said...

It's cool how you can track your dog food and see the test results!

FiveSibesMom said...

Great review! Icy has good taste! We do get their treats and they are a big hit.

Unknown said...

This is in my top 3 foods to feed our crew. The ability to see the test results alone is enough for me! I mean, can you really put a price on that kind of peace of mind?

Dogs Luv Us and We Luv Them said...

It's great food, you'll love it!

Dogs Luv Us and We Luv Them said...

Me too, I've been disappointed with many other foods but not NB!

Dogs Luv Us and We Luv Them said...

Yes, both our active dogs love it! I love their entire product line.

Dogs Luv Us and We Luv Them said...

I'm glad you think it's good info! I'm not surprised your cat loves it.

Dogs Luv Us and We Luv Them said...

I really nlove it, so much great nutrition!

Dogs Luv Us and We Luv Them said...

Oh, poor kitty having allergies. You might consider their Limited Ingredients line of food, I've heard several people with allergy prone pets have good results with it. You can also chat live w/ a Natural Balance nutrition expert via the web site for help finding the right formula for your cat.

Dogs Luv Us and We Luv Them said...

Glad you found the information helpful! Icy just loves it.

Dogs Luv Us and We Luv Them said...

Oh definitely, we are what we eat! Good nutrition is so important for pets, just as with people.

Dogs Luv Us and We Luv Them said...

You should give it a try, I bet you'll really like it. I've researched & tried a lot of Pet foods, Natural Balance is one I've always stuck with. I'm so glad you liked my DIY treat jar, thank you!

Dogs Luv Us and We Luv Them said...

It's extremely important to give our pets a food that's Safe & of high quality. Natural Balance definitely fits that requirement.

Dogs Luv Us and We Luv Them said...

I agree! I feel very confident in the high quality & safety of their Food.

Dogs Luv Us and We Luv Them said...

I know right, the safety testing is so impressive! It was very cool to enter the info on my bag & immediately pull up their safety test report. Icy loves literally everything they make, & she's picky!

Dogs Luv Us and We Luv Them said...

Yeah, it really gives me peace of mind to feed her Natural Balance.

Dogs Luv Us and We Luv Them said...

It's such great food, definitely give it a try. I bet Kilo will love it, & so will you!

Dogs Luv Us and We Luv Them said...

I really like the LID line as well, it's simple & nutritious as well as delicious.

Dogs Luv Us and We Luv Them said...

It's such a great food, I'm glad you lady cats like it too it's so healthy!

Dogs Luv Us and We Luv Them said...

I like the Limited Ingredients formula for every day for Icy. It's been great for her. I'm glad you like the holiday jar I loved making these! I could shop for hours in the craft store, & I love making crafts for pets.

Dogs Luv Us and We Luv Them said...

We love all their products! They are a great brand, in every area. They also give back to the community which I really appreciate & respect.

Dogs Luv Us and We Luv Them said...

Yes, their Buy With Confidence Promise is terrific. It shows how much they stand behind their Food. The safety testing is so important to me, it gives me so much peace of mind.

Dogs Luv Us and We Luv Them said...

Isn't that great!? They really stand behind the safety & quality of their Food.

Dogs Luv Us and We Luv Them said...

Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed our review. Yes, Miss Icy has impeccable taste & she's very picky. My dogs go wild for all Natural Balance's treats!

Dogs Luv Us and We Luv Them said...

Same here! I don't like & trust many Pet food brands, but Natural Balance is one I truly love & trust. True, you can't put a price on this kind of peace of mind, it means so much!

Unknown said...

I haven't seen too many recalls recently, but maybe I'm not paying attention. I was told Natural Balance Duck and Pea cat food is good for my allergy cat.

Unknown said...

This looks like a good brand i hope it makes its way to India soon

Dogs Luv Us and We Luv Them said...

It's such a great brand of food and a great company. I hope they make it to India as well!

Dogs Luv Us and We Luv Them said...

The last couple of years there have been a bunch of pet food & treat recalls, it's so scary! I'm so surprised you haven't seen them. Natural Balance does have a few formulas that are recommended for pet allergies.

How awesome that Natural Balance performs 9 different safety tests on every batch of food and treats and consumers can enter the product date code information from their bag of food online to get the test results. That says a lot about quality control.
