Better Ingredients. Better Nutrition.

Every ingredient fulfills a purpose – from premium proteins and functional fibers to healthy fats, vitamins, and minerals.

Chicken Meal

Made with protein-rich, low ash chicken sourced from the USA. Chicken supplies essential amino acids including taurine a critical nutrient for heart health.

Beet Pulp

Healthy fiber from beet pulp, a moderately fermentable source of soluble and insoluble fiber, helps promote healthy gastrointestinal functions and more consistent stools.

Chicken Fat

USA-sourced wholesome chicken fat supplies a concentrated and efficient source of energy while helping with overall body maintenance.

Menhaden Fish Meal

A premium protein that provides essential amino acids required to help build and maintain strong, lean muscle mass.

All Breed Dog Recipe FAQs

What is beet pulp and why is it beneficial for dogs?

+ -
Beet pulp is a highly digestible source of dietary fiber that provides both soluble and insoluble fiber. In Best Breed All Breed Recipe, it helps support healthy digestion, stool quality, and a balanced gut environment, working alongside probiotic bacteria cultures to support nutrient absorption.

What are ancient grains and how are they beneficial for dogs?

+ -
Ancient grains are traditional whole grains that have been cultivated for generations with relatively little change. Best Breed All Breed Recipe includes sorghum, oatmeal, and pearled barley as digestible sources of carbohydrates, fiber, vitamins, and minerals that provide steady, sustained energy for everyday activity.

What is chicken meal, and why does Best Breed use it?

+ -
Chicken meal is a concentrated source of animal protein made by cooking chicken and removing most of its water. Because fresh chicken is roughly 70% water, chicken meal provides a much more concentrated and consistent source of protein by weight. Best Breed uses premium, low-ash chicken meal – meaning it contains less bone and a higher proportion of animal meat. Our chicken meal typically provides around 70% protein along with a complete amino acid profile. Using high-quality meat meals helps us ensure that the majority of protein in our recipes comes from animal sources, rather than relying heavily on plant proteins such as pea protein or corn gluten meal to increase the total protein percentage.

What are New Zealand Green Mussels, and why are they in Best Breed recipes?

+ -
New Zealand Green Mussels are a nutrient-dense ingredient naturally rich in minerals, amino acids, vitamins, antioxidants, and a unique combination of Omega-3 fatty acids. Nearly every Best Breed recipe includes New Zealand Green Mussels as part of our approach to purposeful nutrition. Our recipes also contain natural sources of glucosamine and chondroitin to help support joint and mobility health. Green Mussels aren’t a recent ingredient trend for Best Breed – they’ve been part of our formulas since the beginning.

What does “EU-approved ingredients” mean, and why does it matter?

+ -
Because some Best Breed formulas are exported to the European Union, we use EU-approved ingredients where applicable – one of the strictest sourcing standards in the world. In practice, this means ingredients used in our food must come from sources approved for the human-consumption supply chain before processing. For example, if a fish is rejected for human consumption, it cannot be used to make Best Breed’s EU-approved fish meal – it is diverted to the animal-grade supply chain instead. This does not mean Best Breed kibble is human grade. But it does mean the source ingredients meet a higher standard before processing.

What are the benefits of slow-cooked, low-temperature dog kibble?

+ -
Best Breed kibble is made using a slower, lower-temperature cooking process than conventional high-temperature, high-speed production. Cooking more slowly helps maintain the nutritional integrity of proteins, vitamins, and minerals while properly conditioning carbohydrates for easier digestion and nutrient absorption. We also produce our food in small batches so quality and consistency can be closely monitored throughout the process. The result is highly digestible, nutrient-dense food designed to help your pet absorb and utilize more from every meal.

Picky Maltese loves it!

I have a very picky Maltese. I have thrown away so much food. He eats this. I bought the Chicken with Vegetables and Herbs, and he loves it. He is super active and playful and finally eating a healthy amount of kibble. He's only 7 lbs, so I needed a reliable kibble he would eat. 5 stars in my opinion!!! I supplement his diet with other foods as well, but he loves this food!

Great

The smaller bite sizes are great for my older dog that has very weak teeth. I found that I have to match most foods for my dog with the smaller ones. I've noticed that he's been able to chew them quite a bit easier.

Our dog eats it, but she eats pretty much anything

Our Chihuahua eats it and seems happy enough eating it. The packaging says it has beet pulp fiber. I haven�t really noticed any changes, but I haven�t noticed any issues either. Also lists ingredients for energy, but our dog is as lazy as ever lol. My favorite thing about this 4 pound bag is that it has a zip top closure. It�s the little things sometimes. Helps keep the food fresh, especially for a little dog who doesn�t eat much. I�d purchase this again because our dog eats it, it agrees with her, and the bag has a zip top.

Both of my dogs liked this food and did not have any digestive issues. Seems like it has good ingredients.

Good, Healthy Food

This is not a grain-free dog food, and I'm not convinced grain free is always the way to go for most dogs anyway. At any rate, I like the ingredients in this food and my guys are doing very well on it. They seem to like it. It hasn't caused them any digestive upsets or other issues I can find. I like that this is made in the USA, and I like that this seems to be a high quality, reputable company. Both of my dogs are previously unwanted mutts, and they deserve good, healthy food.

Healthy all breed dog food

Dogs went wild for this food, they gobbled it up. Really good quality ingredients with lots of fruit and veggies and herbs as well as fiber. Comes in a small 4 lb bag, which is good to see if your dogs like it and to make sure it agrees with them. I do wish the 1st ingredient was chicken, not chicken meal. That is my only complaint, especially for the price. Otherwise top notch food.

Natural ingredients in this dog food

This dog food was developed by a veterinarian who wanted to find a more nutritious line of dog and cat food. My dogs love it.

Pups Love It

We have a few variations of this dog food and the rescues adore it. They can be picky at times but devoured it before I finished filling the bowl. The list of ingredients is good, but I don't have a lot of product to be able to determine its effectiveness. I can tell you it's extremely palatable and even picky dogs like the taste, so it should be easy to feed most dogs. Pretty good.

So far so good. my dog seems to be liking this food.

My dog seems to be having allergy issues. I thought I was feeding a good food and then discovered it was mostly plant based. Bought a different brand and discovered it was manufactured by a company I wouldn't buy from. This brand was recommended to me by a friend who has a 13 year old dane mix and he has been on this food for nearly 10 years doing well.

Good food for a dog that needs to watch his weight

I have an older dog that tends to put on weight. I was looking for a food with a little less protein and fat, but with high quality ingredients. This food meets my needs, and the dog loves it. The actual kibbles are small, so we can put them in feeding toys and he can spend some time eating his meals. I like the slider zipper at the top of the bag - it's easy to open and close. I'm glad I tried this brand.

Excellent Dog food

Our very particular pet sitter told us about this dog food line and we are very pleased with it. Our Cockapoo loves the food and is doing very well on it. We started with the puppy formula and graduated ti this particular type. There are a lot of different varieties and some breed specific food also. This is a great product and made in Ohio!!!

Dogs loved it

Switched my yorkie and Maltese dogs from Iams with no issues. They love it
They have a wide variety to choose from and my nursing moms switched to Dr Gary’s Working dog. And my stud is finally putting on more weight.

Beautiful Coat

Our Golden Mix loves Best Breed. We love it as it makes his coat so shiny. And, because Dr. Gary's Best Breed has such high-quality proteins, we do not need to feed very much and he is full. And, pardon me but we really appreciate the nice, solid stool.

Dogs love it and it’s good for them!

I have an extremely picky dog and he loves Best Breed! Good food with great nutrients they need. He was eating the German one for years. Now that he’s not in daycare anymore, and is less active I switched him to the all breed. Nervous he wouldn’t like it, but he loves it! His dog friends that come and stay the night always love to steal his food too. Dogs I board love it. I would have to say it’s one of the good ones out there. Try it!!!! You must.

Picky dogs unite!

My roughly 25 lb miniature poodle mix surprisingly likes this food! He's been a bit picky since I adopted him, but he seems to like the size of the kibble and the taste. It makes meal time a lot less painful. I also love the packaging, as it includes a sliding zipper to lock it closed. Seems like a great quality food too.

Great dog food - but delivery was an issue this time

Have used Dr. Gary’s for years; last bag had a bit of green plastic embedded in a couple of morsels; sent message to the company and received no response. Today our auto-ship arrived. Delivery driver opened the gate to our small courtyard and THREW the box toward the house! I was surprised to see the bag inside the box is intact!

Dogs Like It. High Quality Ingredients. Good Company Website.

This is basically a chicken-based kibble. At least that is the main protein listed. The dogs seem to enjoy it as they gobble it up and lick the bowls clean. The smallish kibble does well for my roughly 40 lb dogs. The food definitely looks to be of high quality and not crumbly or powdery like some other brands. The kibble looks shiny or oily, which seems like a good thing to me. Dogs are doing well with the food and enjoy eating it. I went to the company's website and was impressed that they talk about the different aspects of the food and explain why they chose certain ingredients, the size of the kibble, packaging, etc.

Switched and gone back.

Based on a recommendation. I started my puppy on Dr Gary's and had him on it for a year. It is expensive so I switched to Natures Journey due to the price difference. The dog liked it but was causing diarrhea.

I have switched back and will say it's worth the cost to have him regular again.

good quality

My dog likes, but doesn't love this flavor. The ingredients are good and, even though my dog is large, the small bag helps with his food storage mite allergies. Decent food.

My dogs stalk me for their next serving

My picky eaters enjoyed this as much as the lamb formula. I generally buy only lamb, so I was surprised. They had no issues with sensitive stomachs. If you want your dog to love dinner, this is a good bet. My dogs stalk me for the next serving. They know the sound of the bag and zipping it open. I like knowing the ingredients are healthy. I highly recommend this food and appreciate the zipped bag that keeps it fresh.

My dog's new favorite

My dog stopped eating his dog food after "stealing" a bite of Dr. Gary's from his cousin. He has been happy ever since. His coat seems shinier already! I feel good about the ingredients in this dog food and I think the price is fair for the quality.

Our pup likes the taste and we like how it seems to be easy on her tummy.

We have a 9-year-old Polish Lowland Sheepdog who has a little bit of a sensitive stomach, usually triggered by poultry products. Our measure of success with a dog food is whether or not she eats it the first time she's presented with it and whether there are any digestive after-effects later. Simply put: She likes the flavor and her tummy hasn't had any issues with the food. The very first ingredient is chicken meal and we still didn't have an issue with digestion. That's a success for us. This is the third flavor from Dr. Gary's that we've tried, and they have all been well-received. One of the things that's important to us now, with urging from our vet, is making sure she's getting foods rich in omega fatty acids for her coat.

Our dogs love this food and it's good for them!

We have three rescues and what we feed them is very important to us. This recipe has chicken with no by-products. It's also made in the USA, which is important to us. We had been feeding our dogs another brand but they became bored with it, so we switched to this. I'm glad we did. We chose to try Best Breed because it was formulated by a veterinarian. Our dogs love the taste of this food and eat it right up. Pablo, Frankie and Gus give this Best Breed food an A+! Five stars!

All Breed Dog Diet Made in USA

I like the ingredients, the fact that it is made to EU standards and has no corn, wheat or by-product meals. Chicken is the primary protein. The dogs like this food and the kibble is about a medium size � good for dogs of small-medium and up. Protein is listed at 25%, which to me is perfect for a house dog in terms of enough, but not too much energy. Good food and the dogs know it. Beet pulp is fairly high on the list and can be helpful for dogs with loose stools.
