Hey everybuddy! Guess what I get to do today? I get to tell you what I thought abouts Taste of the Wild’s NEW Southwest Canyon Formula, plus I get to give away something fabulously cool for you AND your human!
Now, if the bag I’ve got in my paws looks empty, that’s cuz it is. Here…lemme show you.
Hellloooooo???
Yep, totally empty.
I feel kinda sad abouts it being empty.
And you know why it’s empty? Cuz we LUVED it!
See, me and Brudder Ranger have been eating Taste of the Wild for a few years now. Mom likes it cuz it’s grain-free and she says that our coats are shinier and we look healthier since we’ve been eating it. But WE like it cuz it tastes SOOOO good! Our favorite recipes are Sierra Mountain and High Prairie.
This new Southwest Canyon formula is made out of feral bacon wild boar and beef and fruits and veggies, and it doesn’t have any soy or corn (which some doggies are allergic to). It also has…what did they call it?…oh, yeah!…a lower “glycemic index” than their other formulas cuz it’s made with peas and chickpeas instead of potatoes. And you know what? I think it might be our favoritest one yet. In fact, we DEVOURED it! We luved it so much that we asked mom if she would buy us a big bag of it, but Most Sadly, our usual store doesn’t have it in stock yet. But when they DO get it, this will go into our regular rotation, for sure!
We gives it eight paws up!
Okay, now the really super fun part. The Taste of the Wild peoples are letting us give away a pawsome prize package that contains:
- Samples of the Southwest Canyon formula (for you)
- $25 Gift Certificate to PetFlow.com (so your humans can buy you something really cool)
- $25 Gift Card to Omaha Steaks (for your human–but I bet you can talk them into sharing)
How AH-mazing is that!!!???
The giveaway is open to furends in the U.S. only, and it’s super easy to enter. Just leave a comment on this bloggie post from now until 5 p.m. MST tomorrow, Wednesday the 16th. (Only one comment per household please.) On Wednesday night, we’ll do a random drawing and announce the winner on Thursday, the 17th.
Good luck!
Disclosure: Taste of the Wild gave us three free sample bags of their Southwest Canyon formula for this review. However, the opinions expressed here are totally and completely our own. The end.

Roxy absolutely LOVES Taste of the Wild. She will be soooo excited to try the new Bacon Flavor!!
Just recently switch my adult dog and four month old puppy to Taste of the Wild! I cannot tell you how much THEY love it! I love it not only because they like it but also it is affordable among the fact ghat it is super healthy for them too! Also the food had five out of five stars on dogfoodadvisor.com so that was really awesome too! I will continue to buy this food and will look for this new flavor in our local pet store!!!
Woof! This giveaway would be an excellent celebration for my upcoming 5th anniversary “Gotcha-Day” with my human family. They adopted me, but the truth is they really needed me! Oscar (former rescued puppy mill dog)
The lucky cat gets to dine on TOTW but mom is on the fence and says it’s too expensive for the two of us mutts. As itchy as I’ve been lately, though she’s almost ready to cave. I know a gift card would help put her over the edge!!
We not only promote and Sell Taste of The Wild but All our employee dogs eat it to. I recently switched from the Sierra Moutain to the Wild Boar and My Labs fell in love with it!
All 7 of my girls love it but I can only get it at one small business and she orders it in for me and can only get the five pound bag. I give them the Salmon for dinner but like to give them something different in the morning.
That looks most yummy! We would like to try it as well 🙂
My local store doesn’t carry it yet. My 4 chihuahuas prefer chicken, though. Too bad there isn’t a TotW chicken-only food…I’m not talking about the Wetlands with all sorts of fowl.
My Saint Bernese is 11 weeks old. Mackenzie can not get enough of her Taste of the Wild. She loves the Pacific Stream. Her tail goes crazy when we walk towards her food container!
My bully would love this food! He lives to eat but I feed for him to live:)
Awesome – we’d love to have a non-potato food in our rotation for extra variety!

My sweet Kira would love to win some scrumptious new food! She is our big ‘ol bull mastiff that we rescued!
My mom has fed me Taste of the Wild since the day she brought me home. I have a shiny coat, fresh breath, and a clean bill of health! No itchy ears for me. Too bad it is so darn expensive!

What a great product Taste of the Wild is! I adopted my dog Spike from the Save a Sato program, I call him my little chupacarbra, LOL. He was covered in what we thought was mange, took him to the vet, multiple times, no mange, YAY for that! Was in our local pet store and they educated me on grain free products, Well my lil Spike is a very happy doggy. Thanks to Taste of the Wild!! We just bought him the new Southwest Canyon dry and canned, He said Thank you mommy it’s delish!! It would be so awesome to win!! Thank you for your blog and time.
Sincerely,
Mommy Rita and Spike
Been feeding my dog Taste of the wild for 6 years
I love TOTW. It is my only pet food choice!
My girls LOVE TOTW. Their favorite is the kind in the purple bag.
We have 3 big dogs who love Taste of the Wild. Loved the feral bacon comment!
We have switched over to Taste of the Wild for our felines too, after discovering that the felines were eating/guarding the dog food! Poor puppy wasn’t able to eat when the cats were around! We’re all better now that I got the picture!

I’m sure my Boxers will love the new flavor- can’t wait to try it out!
I’ve been buying TOTW for a few years for my two pit bulls that I adopted and they absolutely love it! Thanks for letting people know about this great brand!
My two dogs have been eating TOTW since my big shepherd developed some kind of allergy and we made the grain free switch.. I have been looking for the new flavor but haven’t been able to find it anywhere. Would love to get a free sample.
That food likes like something our kittens would love to try b/c believe me they LOVE to eat!!! Then eat some more!!! You can tell by how fast they are growing!! Thanks for this Mayzie and family!!!
Our dogs also love The Taste of Wild dog food.
Just started my 14week old GSP on the large puppy formula. Yummy yummy she eats it all up and we are keeping it on our shelf.
My dog loves TOTW but the new boar flavor is her fave. She usually waits or wants a little broth on there for dinner but she was very excited and making her feed me now noises when I filled her feed container with the new bag. So, I loaded her bowl and she tore into it. A first. She has not got bored with this one or requires asking to eat. She is a Heeler and they have their dingo going on so……
She loves it. 2 paws up! Thanks
Mayzie you are so cute! I don’t need to be entered in the drawing (you can redraw if I get picked) but just had to say that I think you’re the cutest dog!
Us three really love taste of the wild and would love to try the feral bacon kind soon!
All 3 of our rescue Basset Hounds Oscar (16), Fischer (11), & Cruiser (7) have been devouring this brand going on 6 years now and absolutely LOVE Taste of the Wild!
My oldest dog has real bad allergies and we found out that she was allergic to grains so we switched both our dogs to Taste of the Wild! Not only has her allergies gone away, but both dogs coats are just beautiful and they absolutely love the food!!
BACON!! Yes Please!! We like fruits and veggies too 😀

We feed our three dogs TOTW. They absolutely love the taste and I love the quality of the food. I get tons of compliments on how amazing they look. They get so excited when they see me come in the door with a fresh bag of it.
After half-heartedly eating Science Diet for way too many years, my dogs started devouring Taste of the Wild Bison-Venison. They love it and I am happy to see them eat with such gusto!
Me ‘n my two sissies LOVE Taste of The Wild Prairie! We can’t wait to try the new stuff!! It looks yummy! Woof woof, Millie
Sogi LOVES Taste of the Wild. If someone attempts to feed him something different, he gives the awkward, tilted-head look!
My Pom and Silky Terrier LOVE TOTW! It’s a great quality without breaking the budget, and they have a great protein variety perfect for rotating! They can have fussy tummies, but we had no problem transitioning them to TOTW or between formulas within the brand. Their favorite is the bison and vension and I know they would go bonkers over “feral bacon!” ;D
Please Enter Chance (Yellow Lab), Jethro (Irish Setter), Ellie (Boston Terrier), Shelby (Choclate Lab), and Carlye (Irish Setter) in the Taste of the Wiild Contest !! All five have been on this diet for almost 2 years and are doing Great. They Love all of the Flavors, as I rotate them every week. They also go through 2 cans a day mixed in with their Dry Formula for their Dinner Time Meal !! We get compliments where ever we go, as they sport such beautiful shining coats and have an abundance of energy !! When I open a new bag weekly, they all put their heads in to grab a bite before I can get it in the storage container !!
Our dog Dutchess is allergic to everything and the only thing she has done well on is the Taste of the Wild wetlands it has been a miraculous turn around for her it is truly amazing!!!

My two dogs love taste of the wild. Would love to try new food!!
My pups used to eat TOTW and I loved the ingredients & price, but they lost interest in eating it. I might try it again as they seem to have gotten over puppy pickiness!
My two dogs love Taste of the Wild lamb. Can’t wait to try the new formula!
My puppies all eat Taste of the Wild, can’t wait to try the new formula!! It cleared up one dog’s inflammatory bowel disease and another one who had diarrhea from eating another kind of food.
WE have tried Taste of the Wild and it is ALWAYS DELICIOUS.. Mayzie Gal… you look SOOOOOOOO Sad with that EMPTY BAG… I wanted to just CRY fur you. Hope you get a replacement bag… SOON.

My puppy sister was eating that kind of food when she came to live here.
My dogs love the Venison,Taste of the wild!! Bison sounds mighty good too!!
Great new TOTW. Chickpeas are great complement to “feral bacon” and provide a nutrient dense, slow burning carb. Can’t wait to try!!
Jennifer Norman
My three Shelties…..Sky….Zaraha….and Ian just love TOTW. I have only fed it to them and nothing else. Only the best for my babies. Thank you TOTW for one of the best products on the shelves. Keep the new flavors coming ….we are looking forward to trying them all!!!
My boxer Cash has been eating Taste of the Wild for almost one year. All of his yeast problems are gone and he looks great. Mr. Cash gets his dry Wild Canyon food with some wet Wild Canyon food mixed in for good measure. He shows his appreciation by doing the “Boxer Wiggle” and sometimes even a “Boxer Blitz” around the house. He has enjoyed all the flavors!
My pittie Pippa loves her taste of the wild- wetlands fowl! It’s the only food that she isn’t allergic to, and she’s gained enough weight to be a perfectly healthy, happy canine. I love that the FIRST ingredient is duck, and she loves that it tastes very good, even when she gulps it down in about three seconds. Our little shelter girl thanks you with a super waggy tail and a shiny coat 🙂
My JRT, Emily, would love to try this flavor. We need to keep her energy up!! Thanks

Both Jet & I love that it’s grain free since he seems to have an allergy AND after researching the brand on http://www.dogfoodanalysis.com/ I knew it was the brand for him. Thank you for making such a great product!!!
My girl, Kiara, 2yrs old, loves Taste of the Wild. She’s been eating it since she was a pup. We love the high protein of the Roasted Bison and Venison blend. It gives her the energy she needs for all her running, and keeps her lean, long and healthy. I always recommend TOTW to people with pets. It’s the best!!! Thanks for making a quality product that I can trust.
