Beneful Pet Foods

I have 6 chihuahuas, they are all 10+ years old. I have spent so much time and money trying to feed them right and always ended up disappointed. That is until I tried Purina Beneful. They all have more energy, have lost weight and really drastically changed their behaviors. They are so much more active. They love this food! Thanks Purina, I appreciate it.... They appreciate it!

My dog has been on Hills Science Diet Dental care bites his entire life. He’s 10yrs old now, and I was thinking the hard food was getting to be too hard for his teeth, so I figured I’d try a wet food to see if he’d like it. So I bought him Beneful Incredibites. We went through one box of cans, and everything seemed fine. He was a little lethargic, but I thought maybe his age was just starting to get to him. Started on the next box, fed him a can, in about 30min, he started vomiting blood And food everywhere. He’s a 10lb Pomeranian, and I swear the amount of blood that he vomited looked like it came from a 90lb dog.

I have a 7 year old yorkie and a 5 year old Bichon. I switched my dogs to this food recently. They both ate it and were fine the whole day. The following morning my Yorkie grew very very ill. I’ve had him all 7 years and he has NEVER EVER been sick. He began to vomit, the first of which was all the food.. I figured his stomach just wasn’t agreeing with his food which has happened before. But he wouldn’t stop throwing up. So I scheduled and appointment with the vet, laid with him for about an hour and that seemed to help. But then it got worse and fast. He started throwing up BLOOD ONLY, was whining so loud in pain, very anxious and lethargic. It couldn’t wait until our scheduled appointment so I brought him in. By the time we got here he was freezing cold and severely dehydrated and just was not his self. His health was declining extremely fast. The vet said if I would've waited he would’ve died.

Seriously, dog owners, stay away from this food! My two dogs had bloody stools after eating this food. My dogs were getting bored with their food, so I bought the Beneful dry food to change it up. They both got bloody diarrhea for days. I immediately Googled this brand and discovered that other pet owners were having the same trouble. I threw the food out right away and started them on Wellness dry food. No more bloody stools. This food should be pulled off the shelves!!! I don’t understand how this dangerous food is being allowed to be sold!!!! It outrages me!!! Do your research on safe and healthy dog food. We love our pets and want the best for them. Shame on this company for just trying to make a buck on this crap that is making our dogs sick!!!!

My 7 Year Old Lab Lost His Life. “Kidney Failure”. PLEASE DO NOT IGNORE THESE WARNINGS LEFT BY OTHERS ON THIS FORUM! Their stories are REAL and so are their broken Hearts! Our Chocolate lab “Rusty” had no issues with eating this poison as far as his acquired taste was concerned. However, this food slowly took him away from us. His weight began to drop, he was drinking tons of water each day. He dropped enough weight the last 6 months of his life that you could begin to see each rib as well as feel his predominant back bone, his coat began to feel dry, brittle, no shine. He stopped jumping up in bed with me, he couldn’t even get into the vehicle to go to the vet. He stayed about 75-80 lbs and the day he died he had dropped down to 55 lbs.

I fed this to my silky terrier, Louis, for 2 years. He always threw up and had bad diarrhea, but we assumed that since terriers have sensitive stomachs, that it was like that for all his foods. In November of 2019 his stomach filled up with fluid and we had to go to the emergency and have it tapped. The vets said it could have killed him. He's now on Dr. Hill's low-fat i/d canned food, which is AMAZING, and on medication for the rest of his life. The vets told me that most dog foods sold in places like Walmart or co-op are like poison. Once we stopped Louis from eating the Beneful IncrediBites he immediately stopped vomiting and having loose stool, but now he will likely be sick for the rest of his life. This food should be off the shelves and banned.

I always fed my dogs expensive organic dog food Performatrin. However I cheated out this time and gave them a bag of Beneful just only for this month as I had so many bills to pay for the month and couldn’t get the expensive stuff. Wow, within two weeks my one dog I notice had an increase in urination. Always peeing long and frequent on walks. This never happened on last food “performatrin”. I threw away the bag of Beneful. It’s been two weeks of them eating it.

I purchased to bags of Purina Beneful Grain Free Dog food in September. I noticed Kimber eating less. Didn’t think anything because she her normal self. The night she passed away I took her out for a walk. She was walking funny, even fell over. She walked a little then vomited. I immediately knew something was wrong. I had to carry her back in the house. She was so weak. I sat down and was planning to bring her to the vet next morning. Within 15 minutes Kimber was gone! Cold as ice! Not thinking it was the food. I gave my sister the remainder of the dog food. On yesterday my sister's dog Chez fell over trying to pee. They didn’t think anything of it. He vomited and was dead within the hour. The only thing they had in common was the dog food.

I would not recommend this food. I have two small Yorkies and they both became very ill from eating this food. The minute I stopped the food they immediately got better. I have owned dogs my entire life and have never experienced anything like this.

All three of our dogs are extremely sick after eating this dog food. I recommend that you NEVER buy their product again. This is a complete nightmare watching our fur babies go through hell because of something I gave them. Your food!???
