Feel free to move this if I'm posting in the wrong section.

Has anyone heard about their "new formula"? Well check their website, you're in for a shocker!!

Scroll to the bottom, Yup, apparently they can "process out" the gluten (out of barley) to make it gluten free :angry: I e-mailed them a few days ago. I don't feed canidae, but I did recommend it to many of my friends. I just let them know that their food is NOT gluten-free and it's really important that they update their website to make that clear. This was the response I got:

Dear Adelle,

Please click on the above link, we have updated our site to insure all your questions are answered about our newly improved formulas. Be sure to scroll all the way to the bottom of that page.

Our quality of raw material as well as quality control has actually increased not decreased. Yes we have diversified our complex carbohydrates as rice continues to climb and high quality availability decreases. Our products are better than ever and more consistent. Our economy is facing some challenging times and we are being proactive in offering you the highest quality products, yet affordable enough for our consumers to purchase. We are not sure about other companies and their plans for change or their reasons in the past, however we feel we are being open and honest about our changes. We are getting alot of positive feed back from our customers that are actually feeding their pets our improved formulas.

We thank thank you for your comments, and hope your pets continue to recieve the benefits of Canidae Pet Foods.

Sincerely,

Julie@Team Canidae"

I just can't even wrap my brain around this!!

So if you feed Canidae, switch!!!

I have used Canidae for over a year now and I just looked at the label this evening on the two new bags we bough and realized they are so NOT gluten free any more. I have to find a new dog food!! Again. :o(

I would write them back and tell them that you have already seen the 'benefits' of their new formula, you have been sick for months. Thanks but no thanks.

I am glad you discovered this but sad that you got sick before you did. Thanks for the heads up.

My dog eats Canidae. The bag we currently have is without gluten, but it will be running out soon. Any suggestions for a new high-quality dog food? He seems to like the lamb. BTW, he is a 5 year-old small dog.

Their customer service is not very good. My sister has an elderly gluten-intolerant dog and Canidae gave her the run around for days about their new formula. Ugh.

Anyway, there are lots of good alternatives out there. My dogs are doing well on California Natural and my cats love the grain-free Wellness foods.

We use Taste Of The Wild dog food. It is completely grain free. It is kind of expensive but, since it such high quality, you don't need to give them much. Our Aussie gets a soup can's worth a day and is thriving. They also make a feline version that we give to our cats.

I know this is a little late but I had the same problems with my 2 dogs. We found Canidae and it was so wonderful and then they switched the formula. Ugh!! So now I feed my dogs Eagle Pack as it is a good alternative.

      Curious question

      So I've been dealing with chasing the name celiac because of my body actively dealing with health issues related to celiac though not eating. Diagnosed in 1994 before foods eliminated from diet. After 25 years with former pcp I googled celiac specialist and she wasn't because of what ive been through. I wanted my results to be sent to my pcp but nothing was...

      Celiac Disease and Longevity: Can Treatment and Healing Improve Long-Term Survival?

      Thanks for the prompt reply. Interesting that blood test could be caused by other things. I am sure Dr Fincher will get to the bottom of it. I know he ate nowhere near that amt of gluten before the endoscope. Always interested in any new info abt celiac. U can not trust what is said on fb- That would be a piece of bread a day. He didn't even make that...

      Curious question

      By Jmartes71 · Posted

      So I've been dealing with chasing the name celiac because of my body actively dealing with health issues related to celiac though not eating. Diagnosed in 1994 before foods eliminated from diet. After 25 years with former pcp I googled celiac specialist and she wasn't because of what ive been through. I wanted my results to be sent to my pcp but nothing was sent.I have email copies.I did one zoom call with np with team member from celiac specialist in Nov 2025 and she asked me why I wanted to know why I wanted the celiac diagnosis so bad, I sad I don't, its my life and I need revalidaion because its affecting me.KB stated well it shows you are.I asked then why am I going through all this.I was labeled unruly. Its been a celiac circus and medical has caused anxiety and depression no fault to my own other than being born with bad genetics. How is it legal for medical professionals to gaslight patients that are with an ailment coming for help to be downplayed? KB put in my records that she personally spent 120min with me and I think the zoom call was discussing celiac 80 min ONE ZOOM call.SHE is responsible for not explaining to my pcp about celiac disease am I right?

      I've noticed with my age and menopause my smell for bread gives me severe migraines and I know this.Its alarming that there are all these fabulous bakeries, sandwich places pizza places popping up in confined areas.Just the other day I suffered a migraine after I got done with my mri when a guy with a brown paper bag walk in front of me and I smelled that fresh dough bread with tuna, I got a migraine when we got home.I hate im that sensitive. Its alarming these places are popping up in airports as well.I just saw on the news that the airport ( can't remember which  one)was going to have a fabulous smelling bakery. Not for sensitive celiacs, this can alter their health during their travel which isn't safe. More awareness really NEEDS to be promoted, so much more than just a food consumption!FYI I did write to Stanislaus to let them know my thoughts on the medical field not knowing much about celiac and how it affects one.I also did message my gi the 3 specialist names that was given on previous post on questions on celiac. I pray its not on deaf door.
