Company
In the 1930’s, the Fromm Family introduced the first canine distemper vaccine. In 1949, they introduced the concept of premium pet food to the public.
Overview
Each Four-Star Nutritionals® holistic recipe is formulated for all life stages suitable for puppies, adults, and senior dogs. Because each recipe has a similar blend of fresh fruits, vegetables, brown rice, and potatoes it is encouraged to switch between each variety as often as desired.
Likes
There does not appear to be any Fromm recalls. All ingredients for the dry dog food is made in America (Wisconsin). A rep responded to my inquiry about outsourcing:
No, all of our whole food ingredients are domestic sourced. Domestic includes the United States and Canada. We use only human quality meats, fresh produce, and whole grains. Always avoiding such ingredients as by-products, fillers, artificial colors, flavors or preservatives.
Rated 5 stars on Dog Food Analysis and 4/5 stars on Dog Food Advisor. Tasty and scarfed down in minutes, can’t wait to try the other flavors! Also, the transition to this food was very easy without any intenstinal upset.
Dislikes
A tad smelly and the kibble size is small. Wish the larger 15lb bag had a seal to keep it fresh.
