Timberwolf IMO IS DANGEROUS.
I think if you are using it you need to investigate this company.
I was using months ago before all the information came out about them and what a bunch of
liars they are.

The ingredients on the bag ARE NOT the ingredients specifically in the bag.
For years they admitted the bags do not represent the ingredients they claim to use.

There are many issues with this food.  I had to return 4 bags because of disgusting manure smell, white specks that the company said should NOT be in there.
My dog threw up on the 2 brands he was eating for awhile.
Many e-mails went back and forth with them.
Then we found out about the ingredient issue from another forum and it all made sense.
----------
In regard to Timberwolf what concerns me is not so much about changing ingredients (even though some of it is disappointing), it's about the betrayed trust of consumers who have been buying foods that do not contain what they were supposed to according to the labels - not only for days or weeks or months, but years. What's the point of having any food labels and ingredient definitions at all, if manufacturers don't adhere to them? And where was the regulating body supposedly in charge of enforcement?

that could be the issue.

It's not a TRUSTWORTHY company at all.  I was fed a bunch of lies and unfortunately so was my
dog.  We have joined the many others who dropped timberwolf organics (oh yea another misleading claim - the food isn't organic at all).

Good stuff to know, thanks everyone.  I bought a bag of the bison formula mid Dec. for emergency food for my big dogs, who are quite allergic to chicken.  Guess I'll be donating that bag to someone else.  $50 down the drain again.

I was thinking about trying this.......fortunately, I decided to wait until after I get the Flint River that I ordered & try that first.

Since then, it's been one thing after another......from the article at the Dog Food Project to the things I've read by people who tried it & were less than impressed.  The fact that the ingredients in the bag are not the same as what's on the label tells me that this is a company that can't be trusted, at least to my way of thinking.  I'd really rather feed my dog something where I know for sure what's in it......although the truth is that there really is no way to know for sure what's in the bag or can unless you happen to be right there as they mix in the ingredients.

Another one on the "NOT" list......my oh my, that list is huge & growing...... Undecided

Just reinforces my thinking to not feed dry of any kind at all. Ever since the thread from Donna on the Innova I had stopped using the Karma and took back the bag I had just bought 3 days before her topic and glad I did. I have the canned Timberwolf - is the same issue with the canned as with the dry- the ingredients are different on the inside as to whats on the label?
