Watch this short presentation before you commit to a brand of food for your loving companion.

What Are They Saying about Life's Abundance Healthy Pet Foods

Dear Dr. Jane Bicks and company,
I just wanted to tell you of the transformation of my dog. We decided to switch after being convinced by my brother who had recently adopted a boxer and wanted the best food for his puppy. So, we decided to order a med size bag (of Life's Abundance Premium Health Food for Puppies & Adult Dogs) and see how it went. He definitely liked the food and even in the transition there wasn't any diarrhea or any potty problems. After about a week, you could see a difference in his coat. What was once dull and lack luster, had a sheen and a softness that just made you want to pet!! Then the pads of his feet began to change...softer, almost as if someone had put lotion on them! The shedding stopped! So did the itching!! Thank you all for all of your hard work and efforts to make a dog food that is healthy for peoples' animals. I joke that my dogs probably eat better than I do!! Maybe you could get into health foods for people too!

Hi Dr. Bicks,
I wanted to let you know that since putting our 2... 12-yr-old labs on LA (Life's Abundance Premium Health Food for Puppies & Adult Dogs) 2 years ago, they are doing fabulous! I have never seem them look and feel so good! Their energy levels, coats, and overall health are great. They look and act younger now than they did years ago. The food and supplements are fantastic. Just wanted to let you know that!

Hello, I just wanted to comment on your dog food (Life's Abundance Premium Health Food for Puppies & Adult Dogs)! Years ago, my sister was a distributor of this food, well she had to quit. I had forgotten about your products until I was researching for a better and safer product for my little "girls" (Boston Terrier's) because of the awful poisoning of the dog foods...so I came across your website, once again. I have to say, I am sooo excited from seeing and being a witness to what ever ingredients you have in there, it has made my oldest BT act like a pup again. She has always been "lathargic, lazy, kick-back, passive" until I started feeding her your dog food! We could see the difference in as little as 2 days! I was totally impressed! I was sooo impressed with the results, I turned one of my friends on to it, so now she is buying it for her BT...her terrier absolutely loves it too! So anyways, THANK YOU for sacrificing many long hours into making this a HEALTHY food for our little girls! I pray that God continues to bless your business with success!

Warmly,
Becky S., Missouri

Thank you, thank you, thank you. I just ordered my second bag of Life's Abundance (Premium Health Food for Puppies & Adult Dogs) and feel such a great relief from worrying about what food is the best for my beautiful labs. The recall scared me to death and because of it I researched all dog food to find the best. Life's Abundance is the best, my dogs look better and feel better. My five year old is running around like he is two again. And his eyes are not running anymore and he isn't rubbing his face and the rug anymore. He would itch so much he rubbed his face till it bled. But not anymore. I have great confidence in the food I feed them now, and they are so much happier and healthier. Thank you so very much for your great product and for caring about our pets and my peace of mind.

Sincerely,
Cheryl P., New York

Just wanted to let you know that even though I've only purchased Life's Abundance (Premium Health Food for Puppies & Adult Dogs) a few weeks ago, my dogs have shown a remarkable improvement! No more allergies! I guess this is one good thing that came about from the recent pet food recall! Thank you so much for helping to improve the lifespan of my pets!

Thank you for being the best pet food on the market...
