Purina ONESmall Bites Beef and Rice Formula Small High Protein Dry Dog Food Natural With Added Vitamins, Minerals and Nutrients - 16.5 lb. Bag

I bought this for my teething 7# 5 month Portuguese Podengo Pequeno puppy who was on Purina ProPlan Small Breed Puppy Chicken formula. She is very itchy, so I wanted to try a food without chicken (the most common dog allergy) but still with grains/no legumes. I tried a duck and rice formula from a premium brand, but its way to hard for her to eat. Finding a small-breed food is not easy.This kibble is a mixture of small triangular kibble about the same size and texture as the puppy chow, and irregular tender jerky bits. She really likes the beef flavor, its easy to use this as training kibble, and she can easily eat it. The photo attached if this food on the left, her previous puppy chow on the right (coins) and the two balls of the too-big/hard duck kibble on the far right. The jerky bits can be larger, but they are soft and don’t give her any trouble. A good diet for a step up from puppy chow.The price is very good, too. It’s a ¼ of the price of F&D ancient Grain Lamb puppy small breed, which would have been my order from Chewy. I also ordered the lamb flavor of this which will arrive today. I think there are only these two flavors. I appreciate that Amazon offers this smaller bag size. My local pet stores only offer a giant bag. Small pups only eat ½-¾ cup of food per day.We’ll see how her tummy and skin tolerated it, but so far we are both happy with it qua flavor, texture, value and nutrition.I was not offered any incentive to review this product, but rather share this info for the benefit of others with small breed pups who are searching for a decent food.

The first ingredient is meat. My dogs love this food! They like all Purina One flavors.

I tried Wrigley on several foods before we gave him Purina One Smart Blend Small Bites. He has a good appetite but he didn’t like the size of all the other kibbles. Everything was just too big for him. As soon as we gave him the small bites, he ate every bite with no problems at all. Wrigley loves the tender morsels and if I had any suggestion regarding this food, it would be to add more of them. Also, it seems that they end up in the top of the bag and by the time you get to the last 1/3 of the bag there are very servings that have no tender morsels at all. It would also be nice if this food came in other flavors. Wrigley gets bored eating beef every single meal. A chicken, lamb or salmon would be a wonderful addition to this line. Purina One Smart Blend Small Bites is a good value and in today’s world, that means a lot!

This is a great basic dry dog food. Our vet has always recommended high priced specialty dog food for all of our dogs, but Purina One has worked great! All of our dogs live long, healthy lives. We have had 2 make it to age 15 with this as the mainstay of their diet. The beef small bites has just been their favorite taste. Even our large breed Catahoula prefers the beef over the large breed variety that is chicken flavored.

one 8 lb bag of dog food thought I was getting 4 8 lb bags costing 53.99 not one 8 lb bag for 53.99

My dog, at age 15, likes it and gobbles it down with gusto. She maintains a healthy weight and lots of energy.

My little dog has been eating this food for years. Unfortunately Purina isn't putting it out any longer. These sellers are selling it at severely increased rates to make a profit for themselves not to help out the dogs who eat it. It's a true shame!!!

My little dog Atlas absolutely love this food. It’s very difficult to find the beef and rice in stores, especially the small bites size. It also helps me to know that Purina formulated its food to meet all the needs of a dog without worrying about them having heart issues at a later date. Purina employs vet nutritionists to make sure our babies get the best. And wow! The prices is so affordable. Atlas loves all Purina One products but I do believe “Beef” is his favorite! I will be back to order more!
