Recommended if you have a working dog, performance dog, or any crazily over-active breed like a Labrador or Border Collie.ĭiamond PRO89 dog food review – Virtual tour of a Diamond Pet Foods Facility Ingredients of Diamond PRO89 dog food It’s these smaller inclusions which really tell a quality product, and Diamond PRO89 dog food is hard to fault. Probiotics are included as well, like they say on the front of the bag, and we also find glucosamine and chondroitin to further support joints. We find some other nice inclusions in the food – flaxseed to support your performance dog’s joints and wellbeing, and chia seeds which help retain water to help your dog stay hydrated as well as regulate blood sugar. The reason for this is Diamond hand-pick all the vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients to work as a cohesive whole, rather than dust over baked cereal grains with a vitamin/mineral premix bought cheaply from some overseas supplier. You’ll notice the ingredients list is very long, but we’ve actually already covered the main constituents. I estimate 32% carbohydrates which is really good, and your working dog will have no trouble utilising these grains as an energy source. The 4th and 5th ingredients are sorghum and whole grain brown rice, and these will serve to bind the kibble – it would fall apart otherwise. The reason for this is most Aussie brand working dog foods are made by milling companies 😉 Alright cobber?Ĭompare these meat and fat ingredients to other working dog foods and you’ll see a world of difference. Without specifically referring to other working dog foods this is much better than something like tallow. It’s nice to see chicken fat as a specific fat ingredient. This is a fantastic combination of what the industry calls real meat, backed up with a protein dense meal.

Thankfully we find pork as the second ingredient, and the third ingredient is yet another meat inclusion – beef meal. There’s also a “Beef is the 1st ingredient” claim, so we’ll take a look at that in the review to see if it holds up… What the ingredients really sayīeef is the first ingredient, which is expected given what it says on the front of the bag, but as this is “wet weight” it won’t be as significant once cooked.

We find a statement about guaranteed pro biotics, which is good for gut health. With Diamond PRO89 dog food having an emphasis on meat and meat fat we know we’re on the right track, and the marketing fits the purpose of the food. If you’ve read our guide to working dog formulas you’ll know meat and meat fats are far better for energy and muscle maintenance than the (cough cough, “cheap”) grains we find in other working dog foods.

Diamond PRO89 Beef, Pork, and Ancient Grains Formula for Adult Dogs.ĭiamond PRO89 dog food review What the marketing saysĭiamond PRO89 is marketed for performance dogs with “nutrients they need to support hard work and endurance”.

There’s only one formula in the PRO89 range, but there is a regular Diamond range of dog foods as well. In our Diamond PRO89 formula we’ll take a look at the ingredients and composition, and look at why you may feed this as an alternative to, say, one of the many Australian working dog foods… Diamond PRO89 dog food products In fact, the “89” in the name is a reference to 89% of the protein being from animal sources.

It’s a high protein, high fat dog food with an emphasis on meat with a backing of grains. You’ve probably heard of Taste of the Wild, and if you know how good that is you’ll be happy to know Diamond PRO89 is an endurance / working dog offering from the same manufacturer.
