One dog has died and another sick.
Firstly, I’m not directly blaming Farmer’s Market. Without an autopsy. I don’t know what has caused the dog’s death. It’s very unfortunate because I was looking after a friend’s Staffy whilst he is away over Christmas/New Year.
The facts are these: Owner switched brands to Farmer’s Market. It was on special and he bought several large bags. Dog developed a cough but we did not associate it with the dog food. Owner suspected heart worm. Heart worm test negative. Owner declined lung x ray and opted for a 7 day course of steroids. Dog ate more d...Read more
ry dog food and was drinking more and cough went away. When steroids were ceased cough returned but not as bad. The dog was listless, no energy and developed diarrhoea. Began refusing dry dog food. I fed him chicken etc (no bones) to get him eating something. He started eating the dry dog food again and ate his evening meal. He was ok in the morning and went outside to toilet. Came back in and lay down at the end of his owner’s bed. When I checked on him in the afternoon he was still there... dead. I haven’t had a chance to shop and ran out of my regular dog food so I fed my border collie Farmer’s Market... from a freshly opened bag and within 10 minutes he had regurgitated it back up, was laying down drooling and panting heavily. He also kept going back and forth to the water bowl to drink. So now I’m suspecting the dog food is doing this. The two other dogs here are fine and not eating Farmers Market.

This brand needs to be investigated
Bought it because it was on special. My small dog has had extreme runny stools. Makes him very listless and sick. Happens every time he eats this brand at first I thought it was a coincidence but it has happened twice now.

Gross. Throwing it in the bin
So how much salt is in this stuff? My dog has been to his water bowl 4 times since eating this stuff for dinner. Throwing the rest in the bin.

Allergic reaction caused dermatitis
I’m a dog sitter and this is the second time this food has caused allergic dermatitis to our clients dogs. I care a lot about our visitors and it’s frustrating to see this allergic reaction to a brand of dog food we’re given to feed to them.

i'm a little leery about this food because it has such a very strong smell which is different than other dry food I buy for my dog. i have the chicken and farm vegetables and the product is dark brown and sure doesn't smell like chicken. Why is this?
