I am being compensated for helping spread the word the word about the launch of Natural Balance products at PetSmart, but Cheap Is The New Classy only shares information we feel is relevant to our readers. PetSmart is not responsible for the content of this article.
Lately Daisy Baby has been sneezing. A lot. We had just switched her to a new food a few weeks ago that is better than the brand we had been using, but perhaps not right for our little fluff. She used to have skin allergies which seem to have gone away completely with the new food, so that is good, however the sneezing has not gone away. So, we decided to make a trip to our local PetSmart® to see what we could find that Daisy Baby might enjoy even more. Ideally we were looking for something grain-free and with limited ingredients, since that might help decide if the previous food was actually an allergen to Daisy Baby.
The Search For Dog Food With Less Ingredients
Did you know that you can now buy Natural Balance® pet food at your local PetSmart®? Natural Balance products arrived in Pet Smarts across the country July 6th. We have heard nothing but good things about Natural Balance dog food and Natural Balance cat food, so we decided to try a few of their products out with all of our animals. We even bought a bag of the Natural Balance Wild Pursuit for our cat, since he is a wild thing. 😉
Natural Balance Dog Food & Cat Food
Natural Balance offers a ton of options for your little fluffs. We were able to find both dry and wet food, treats, meals that looked like gourmet dishes – this makes me want to speak French to my cat – and foods with premium ingredients and limited ingredients. The helpful PetSmart employees help guide as to what might be best for our particular pets. Their is a HUGE selection of Natural Balance dog food and cat food. Don’t be afraid to ask for advice. 🙂
Is Limited Ingredient Dog Food The Right Choice For Daisy Baby?
Follow along with us as we switch Daisy Baby’s food to a limited ingredient diet over the next couple of months to see if it works better for her. We were using a cheap variety dog food that can be picked up in any store and she used to scratch and sneeze. After hearing a lot of bad press about this particular brand, we switched to a reputable brand that seemed to have agreed with her very well except for the sneezing. So, now we are focusing on a limited ingredient diet to see how she responds to it. Follow along over the next couple of months as we let you know about Daisy Baby’s progress.
After we bought Daisy Baby her new food, we let her try one of the treats. We think she approves. So far, so good.

Gotta get this for my pups to try out!
We're actually just gearing up to give Natural Balance a try. My vet keeps telling me how great it is.
That sounds like an awesome brand of dog food. I will have to pick some up for Milo!
I dont' have a dog or cat - but we shop there for our parakeet and rabbit
I've tried this before and my dog loved it...I have to be very weary about what I feed him!
Daisy baby is so stinkin' cute!! I hope her sneezing goes away, I know it can be annoying as a human to constantly sneeze from allergies!
You are right about that. I suffer from allergies, too, and it's no picnic.
We've been looking to change our dog's food brand and this sounds like a great option. I'll have to pick some up the next time I'm out!
Where have you all been? Natural Balance has been in Petco and Unleashed stores for years.
That is very cool. It's brand new to PetSmart, though, so that is what the post is talking about.
I bought this brand for my old dog! I love all natural ingredients, better for our pet. They aren't expensive either
Oh Daisy is such a cutie. And she looks very happy with pet food & treats.
