Composition of Farmina N& D
Let's get acquainted with the composition of Farmina N& D food using the Boar and Apple Adult Medium & Maxi variant as an example (wild boar, pumpkin, apple, for adult dogs of medium and large breeds):
Photo of the composition indicated on the package.
The first ingredients – fresh wild boar meat (24%) and dehydrated wild boar meat (22%) – are the main sources of protein. Further in composition, there are still dehydrated whole eggs, also rich in protein (on packages from February 2022, the composition also contains dehydrated poultry proteins (chicken, turkey), dehydrated ruminant proteins (lamb, beef), dehydrated pork protein).
There are no ingredients very rich in vegetable protein, which means that the main part of the 30% protein indicated in the analysis is of animal origin. Recall that animal proteins are richer in amino acid composition and are better absorbed than vegetable proteins.
The source of carbohydrates is peas (20%).
It should be noted that in low-grain formulas, oats, spelled are used as a source of carbohydrates. Spelled is a type of wheat, so by our criteria, low-grain formulas cannot be classified as super premium. Also on packages dated February 2022, corn is present in a small amount.
Sources of fats and fatty acids – chicken fat, fish oil (on packages dated February 2022, pork fat is also present in the composition). Fiber sources are dehydrated pumpkin (5%), pea fiber, carrots, dried alfalfa, dried apples (0. 5%).
Inulin, fructooligosaccharides, mananoligosaccharides are useful for digestion. Spinach powder, psyllium powder, black currant powder, dehydrated sweet orange, blueberry powder, turmeric root – these ingredients contain various beneficial substances (fiber, vitamins, antioxidants).
Sodium chloride is table salt. Brewer's yeast is a source of B-group vitamins. Glucosamine, chondroitin sulfate – useful for joints. Lutein – good for vision.
After the list of nutritional supplements, it is indicated that an extract of tocopherols of natural origin is used as an antioxidant.

Farmina N& D dog food reviews
Farmina N& D Kirkland dry dog food has been sold in USA for many years, during which time a lot of reviews have appeared about it. Below we have collected some found on the Internet.
Reviews of veterinarians
Writes Nikolai Sinelnikov, veterinarian:
In general, neither I nor the owners have any complaints about the composition and quality of Farmina ND food, many dogs eat it with pleasure and feel great. A good indicator is the use of quality ingredients in the feed – fresh chicken fillet, fresh herring. The low-grain feed of this manufacturer contains only 20% of cereals, which is quite a normal indicator compared to other feeds of this class. The food is multi-component, most of them contain not only all the necessary ingredients, but very rare ones, such as aloe extract and green tea extract. The manufacturer claims that aloe helps digestion by stimulating bile secretion, and green tea extract kills bacteria and freshens the pet’s breath (there is no confirmation of this fact, but I can say for sure that the extract has at least some effect, it must be in the dog’s mouth quitefor a long time, i. E. She must carefully survive the food, and not swallow, as they usually do).
The food contains DL-methionine, a synthetic analogue of the natural and essential amino acid mitionine, which primarily helps the liver cope with the load. This amino acid is present in animal proteins, eggs, fish and dairy products are rich in it, but due to their insufficient content in ready-made feeds and industrial processing, manufacturers add its analogue and it’s better than not at all.
Customer Reviews
Farmina ND was recommended to us by the breeder. The granules are small, slightly moist, the Spitz dog really likes it. Allergies have not been identified. Price – quality justifies itself! The food can spoil in the sun, it was an unpleasant experience, now I store it in the refrigerator. I will keep buying it!


Looking for a replacement, Proplana took Farmina, N& D, low grain, with chicken and pomegranate. The composition of the food is really good, but my dog did not fit at all. In the second week of Kirkland dog fooding, dandruff appeared, and the smell from the "exit" became very smelly. This is definitely because of the feed, because after changing to another, everything went away.


This food suits my yorkie, eats with appetite, no allergies. The purchase is satisfied. The only thing I didn't like was that there was no zipper.
