Healing foods I ordered Chi dog at the recommendation of a veterinarian for my beagle with an infiltrative lipoma. I also talked with Chi Dog's veterinarian for their recommendation and I'm happy to say after two weeks. I'm seeing positive changes in him a shiny your coat, more energy and overall more mischievousness. 😀 I highly recommend.

This dog food has changed my dogs life, made me an absolute believer in food is medicine. I have a 3lb Malchi who was lethargic never finished a meal constipated prior to Chi dog to now a highly intelligent happy satisfied dream girl. I am so grateful I decided to try. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!

I am sending along 3 photos for you to feel free to use as endorsements if you would like. Having a family pet that's been diagnosed with kidney deterioration is awful, but we all feel better knowing that she is eating food she loves and not the prescription kind that made her miserable each meal time. Food is love and food is medicine. Thank you so much for creating a diet that is helpful and delicious at the same time for her. She is so much happier. The photos are of our 14-year-old Rat terrier Chihuahua Zoie. We sure wish her 13-year-old sister River had gotten to enjoy this food before she passed away August 1st this year. Many thanks!!!

Awesome - here is a written testimonial from us (and some pictures - which are so hard to choose, so let me know if you need more!) Chi Dog Changed Our Dog’s Life – A Heartfelt Thank You For 18 months, my husky Albus suffered from chronic rhinitis. We tried everything - medications, procedures, and countless tests - yet nothing worked. He struggled to breathe daily, constantly sneezing and he even had low energy. It was heartbreaking watching him suffer. It wasn’t until we did a food allergy test and removed dry kibble from his diet that we saw a real change. But finding a pre-made food without his triggers was nearly impossible. Almost every option contained beef, chicken, or potatoes - all of which he was allergic to. Every meal felt like a compromise, even if it was better than before. So, we switched to a fully homemade diet, and the transformation was incredible. Eliminating his triggers meant Albus could finally breathe, stop sneezing, and regain his energy. He was thriving, so much so that we transitioned all three of our dogs to homemade food. With homemade meals came the challenge of ensuring they got the right nutrients. That’s when we found Chi Dog. Chi Dog has given us the freedom to provide all three of our dogs with a nutritionally complete, homemade diet that doesn’t trigger allergies. What makes it even better is that it’s backed by our vet, which is rare when it comes to homemade feeding. She actually was surprised we found something so great on our own! This product has truly been a game changer for our family, and we are so grateful for Chi Dog! ❤️
Camber has been eating the water diet since last June. I have to tell you that she is doing GREAT! She has had digestive problems since a puppy and she was 6 years old last June. With her vet we tried various things-antibiotics, Pepcid ac, Sulcrafate (she lived on this), etc. She’s seen an internist and had an ultrasound. Today Camber is no longer on Sulcrafate , happily eats every meal and seldom has an upset tummy. She does get probiotics and psyllium daily and I am very careful about her treats. Camber’s coat is so soft and thick now and the fur is growing in on her bare thighs. Her nose is shiny and black rather than a dull black. She is also happy to take the long route rather than insisting on the short route for our walks. Such a dramatic change in her health!

Camber is doing great on Chi Dog! I’m not seeing any of her stomach issues. Her coat is softer, thicker and her bald spots on her thighs are filling in. Camber’s eyes are bright and her nose leather is black and shiny. I’ve only had one problem with the food. Camber did not like one batch that we received. She refused to eat it. Chris worked with me and arranged for a delivery from different batch plus a couple Metal meals to try. Camber approved of the new batch and immediately ate without a problem. She also ate the Metal without issue. Donna Bean

Oliver is the sweetest little snuggler I have ever known so it was heartbreaking to watch him struggle with allergies. At four months old he was already showing signs of severe allergies. We were "frequent flyers" at our vet with all of his skin and digestive issues. He started cyto point injections at 6 months after his itching led to dermatitis. Eventually the cyto point wasn't enough and he had to switch to apoquel and allergy shots. Even with medication he would get so yeasty and itchy we had to resort to weekly baths to give him any relief. We tried several fresh food diets but nothing seemed to alleviate Oliver's itchiness. After the fourth time Oliver gave himself a corneal ulcer from the scratching, our vet recommended we try the Chi Dog Fire Diet. Not only does Oliver love the food it actually has helped! His skin is clear and healthy. He does not have nearly as much breakthrough itchiness and only needs a bath once a month. He actually gained 3lbs which is amazing because he has always been underweight. Oliver may always need some level of allergy care, but Chi Dog has given him comfort, stability, and a quality of life we were not sure he’d ever have.
Thank you for reaching out. Boris is doing fantastic and we are so thankful that Dr. Forbes guided us to Chidog. Boris has had allergies since day one and we thought we were effectively managing them with his raw diet, but ear infections and skin issues persisted. He also never loved his food and would often skip a meal if he didn't feel like eating. In early 2023 he developed stroke-like symptoms and was rushed to the emergency vet to find out he had a severe inner ear infection. This started a six month long series of tests and treatments that, unfortunately due to complications, led to him being on antibiotics and steroids for an extended period of time and created the perfect environment for his skin issues to thrive. With Dr. Forbes' help we got Boris stabilized and onto the Chidog fire diet, and it has been the best change we could have made. In addition to helping keep his ears and skin in check, I can honestly say he has not once skipped a single meal since we started it. I've included a few pics of him when his skin flare up's were so terrible as well as our happy healthy boy now. Please let me know if you would like any additional pictures or information!

Very helpful and attentive vet technician answered all my questions very patiently. My dog Karamel loves the food. You are a lifesaver!
Hi Dr. Bohrer, I absolutely LOVE the new packaging. Is there any chance I can have a note on my file for the spit packaging only? As someone that travels a ton with two pups that eat Chi Dog, the split packaging made things so so much easier!

Zoey had a weight problem! She had got up to 42 pounds, or I should say we allowed her to. We tried all the store diet foods, nothing worked. In September we found the Chi Dog program. She started off on the Earth Diet for a couple of months. In two months, she lost a couple of pounds. She was starting to get more active, so we moved her over to the Fire Diet. It is now August, and she has lost 7 pounds. She is playing like a younger dog, wanting to play ball, ALL THE TIME. Going for long walks and cleaning up after her is just what the Vet wants in the stool. She gets so excited at mealtime, she starts jumping around, she even gets her front paws up on the counter so she can see. It’s great to have a happy, playful dog back in our house, she was becoming a couch potato.
Hello, I am writing a testimonial for our 13 year old Boston Terrier, Reagan. Reagan was diagnosed with stage 2 Kidney disease in May of 2025. She wouldn’t eat, couldn’t play and was lethargic all the time. She was wetting her bed and looked miserable. She ended up spending two nights in a veterinary hospital. We were told we had to feed her a kidney friendly dog food. I spent a couple of days researching kidney friendly dog food. I found Chi Dog, I read the testimonials and took a leap of faith. I am so glad I did. While I know her kidney disease isn’t going away, we got our feisty girl back after a week of eating the water diet. To say my family is grateful is understatement. As I am writing this account I am in tears. We were so close to losing her, this food has helped so very much.

Prior to my order.. My baby had been eating a raw diet for the past two years. But she developed bloody stools and throwing up so we had a visit at the vet where they found her temp was 104.. She was dehydrated. So she spent the night for IV fluids and we went on a rice and chicken bland diet. When I gradually went back to the raw diet.. She threw up at least daily. So we went back on bland. Then I saw your food and ordered it. I'm happy to report that she has not thrown up since the transition to the Wood diet. The way I prepare it is heat in a skillet with a bit of chicken broth, just enough so it's not chilled. She loves it and her tummy must too since she has not thrown up and her stools are normal.
Rosie has had her last teeth removed, and it was a very easy uncomplicated process Dr. Fletcher, who performed the services is an outstanding person and treated us well I report back to you on this because one of the reasons that Rosie had her problems with her teeth had been because she was old and we were concerned about her health during the procedure and there were some things that had come up on her lab work, we had been feeding the food after we learned this Her labs were better and it was a very successful Circumstance. She is in great shape happy as can be and we noticed a lot of differences that’s one thing the second thing I wanted to let you know is Rosie had a growth callus scales or whatever on her nose for many years that was present when she came to us and no Vet knew what to do with it and so we just let it go and I treated it with with cream or something if it got too scratchy for her . In the present time, Rosie has a smooth shiny little black nose with a very small pink dot in the center her nose stays moist. It’s not dry and cracked and the only thing that has changed in Rose’s life besides getting older, but she doesn’t show that ,is that we were feeding Chi diet Wood. This is important for Rosie. It’s much easier to dig things up and play with her toys while zooming. Her newfound non-irritated mouth and face brings in cuddles more and we can touch her on the face and on the nose and she’s a happy little girl We thank you for what you do and we are one of the families that have experienced a wonderful outcome for the years that Rosie has left thank you very much I never even thought her nose would ever be better I am so grateful the diet helped her be able to have her teeth done honestly I had figured if she passed during procedure it would be better than more discomfort We have fed primal freeze dried and evermore and other considered higher nutrition foods which had saved her life She has not had anything significant after we concurred couple years of worms Believe she may have been a breeder My life is full and loving with Rosey in it, Thank you for doing something for our critters!
I just wanted to reach out and say how excited I am that I stumbled upon your website. I have an 8 year old chihuahua-cocker spaniel mix named Gus who has both heart issues and history of pancreatitis flare ups. He's never been into kibble, so it's been challenging to get him to eat consistently. I've always wanted to give him food he loves and is excited about, but all of the widely advertised fresh foods like Ollie and Farmers Dog have way too high of fat content to give to a dog with pancreatitis. A few months ago, my vet recommended Hills I/D, because I learned the previous kibble he was on was too high in fat. So we tried that, and he reluctantly ate it. However, two months later he started breaking out in bloody lesions all over his head, body, legs, ears and face. It was terrifying to say the least. The vet thought he had skin cancer, but I suspected this was a reaction to the food change. Sure enough the biopsy came back negative. Meanwhile, I did research on the number 2 ingredient listed in Hills I/d: Corn Gluten meal. Turns out it's literally a chemical process found in weed killer and rat poison, and I am convinced that is what was attacking his body. I don't remember how I stumbled upon your fire diet, but I immediately ordered it and Gus LOVES it! He gets so excited about meal time which makes my heart happy. Most importantly, my best friend is recovering and he's not going to die after all. THANK YOU!!!!!
Yoso, the black tri is the father of Ada (she is half Aussie and half GSP mix.) One Sunday nearly 5 years ago, while walking Yoso, a family who knew of Yoso and his friendliness begged us to impregnate their female in heat. Funny story. The dogs took to each other immediately, Yoso still on his leash. And then 9 puppies, 18 families begging for them. I like to say, what happens in a lockdown stays in a lockdown. Never would I have agreed if not for the oddity of Covid, and a need for joy. And empty shelters at the time too. BUT, that means both dogs share allergy issues made worse by a rat poisoning from our neighbors. They are very happy on your supplements and now frozen foods. I am grateful.
We have a spoiled fussy chihuahua.. that being said she is licking her bowl clean seems to b an energetic 11 years old Grateful to our vet for recommending Your food💕
Michelle
Kelly is loving the switch from his Metal diet to Water. He is enthusiastic about mealtime again. Over the months on Chi Dog, his coat has improved to a nice density and his chewing and licking is greatly reduced.
Melody McLaughlin
The representative was very helpful in resolving my concerns and duplication of account...who knows how that happened : ). She did not make me feel dumb or at fault...we just got it fixed! This food has had an amazing result for my pug Frank. When I transitioned him from puppy food we went right to Chi Dog Fire at the recommendation of his vet. If it is possible he is even a more beautiful and active dog now then he was before. He should be the face of your Chi Dog "Fire."

Petie’s owner Angela reached out to Chi Dog upon the recommendation by her holistic veterinarian Dr. Rachel. Petie had been struggling with his weight for years. To help his intractable weight issue Dr. Rachel suggested Chi Dog Food Therapy. Petie started on Chi Dog’s low carb Fire, Earth and Metal Diets as a rotational diet and he has finally seen improvements in his weight! His owner Angela and Dr. Rachel are dedicated to supporting Petie as he works toward his weight goal and Chi Dog is honored to be part of his success story!

Vera's review of Chi Dog diets was founded by an integrative vet and member of this community, Susan Bohrer! "Since arriving at my forever home, my amazing parents have been feeding me Chi Dog fresh cooked food. I was skeptical at first since I've only ever eaten dry kibble. Until I discovered Chi Dog, I didn't know how easy and fun eating could be for my small mouth..what a pleasant surprise! I no longer have to chew my food a million times before I can swallow it. I like it at mealtime and also smashed onto a licky mat for a treat - I know my parents do this when they are trying to get stuff done and don't want me in the way...but I don't care, whatever works...as long as I get more food!" Here are Vera's ratings (out of 5 stars) of the 3 Chi Dog diets she has tried: Water (Pork is the main protein) - my favorite!!! I love this one because even though the fat content is pretty much the same as the others, there is a nice savory film of fattiness on this flavor. Super yummy - 6 Stars Wood (chicken is the main protein) - I like this one too. It is my comfort food because chicken is the flavor I am most used to. It is just a bit dryer than the Water diet...but I don't mind. I like to mix it up! Plus, Mom says this one will help balance me out when I'm getting too bossy - 5 Stars Fire (Turkey is the main protein) - yum, yum, yum! This one tastes a lot like the Wood diet, but the texture/moisture is in between Water and Wood. Bonus - I also love the edamame. Who knew??? - 5 stars "I'm so glad I've found my inner Foodie self with Chi Dog! And even better, I never once had messy poop or any stomach upset during my transition ... and my haircoat is fabulous!!! Thank you Dr. Susan Bohrer for bringing this amazing food to my kind!" -- Vera
Dr.Nell
My 2 senior dogs absolutely love Chi Dog! My most senior, she is almost 16 years young, is a picky eater and she licks her plate clean! We also deal with ongoing pancreatitis and liver issues. Along with some medication and starting them on Chi Dog our numbers are improving. I am very happy with the quality of the food (we use the Wood diet and the Fire diet) and it is so convenient with the delivery system they have set up. I also want to mention how EXTREMELY helpful Dr. Boher has been. She is so helpful by answering all my questions and is so kind in doing so. I have recommended Chi Dog to several friends and family members and will continue to do so.
Cheryl
Chi dog is amazing! As much as we would love to make our dog’s food ourselves, life can get really busy and there isn’t always time for it. Chi dog is perfect- not only is it really convenient but it is made by actual veterinarians who know exactly what our pups need. Our boxer especially loves the Fire and Earth diets, but there is a perfect match for every dog’s personality and/or health needs! Thank you for making our boy so happy and healthy!
Courtney
My senior collie loves this food and he is looking great - his coat, his alertness and his energy level. He now skips to his food. Thank you for your guidance during the process of deciding on the food and amount to feed him.
Heidi
Thanks so much for your help...he's doing so much better, even this early, and I am hopeful and confident that with time, he will continue to improve on your diet. He's so thrilled to have new options, after years of that boring canned prescription food. And human grade food seems to "agree with him" more. You can be sure that after 7 years of canned stuff, he's HAPPY to sing your praises.
Lynne
Heela was having some major Gi issues in the past, being a Shiba they do have sensitive systems. Since I have had her on Chi Dog Wood Dietwe have not had to deal with that at all. She is very regular, full of energy and a happy sweet girl! Thank you Chi Dog!!! We are forever customers.
Breanne
I cannot thank you enough for all the work you’ve done with Chi Dog. My dog hasn’t been healthier after being on this food for quite some time. Each time I bring him to the vet, he has had no issues and they always ask me what I’m feeding him. Of course I have some vets that try to steer you away and try to get you to feed science diet or Purina’s pro plan but I know this food isn’t made for dogs. I love the quality of the food and it’s always fresh. My pup is a picky eater and he never gets tired of the Chi Dog. We love the variety and ingredients! The service is outstanding. Thank you for keeping my pet healthy and happy! Kind regards, Jess & Simba
Jess
To update you, Chip, my 12 year old, Lab looking mix, is doing exceptionally well. I have noticed more energy and youthfulness, and thinner waist. He still shows signs of his age but has noticeably become more playful and energetic. Beans, my 10 year old labradoodle was often picky and not interested in eating. He would eat grass a lot while on walks and would occasionally vomit up bile, which prompted me to go with Chi-Dog thinking his food was lacking. He had upset stomach pretty frequently. Now he loves his food and has not refused it once
Terry
Hi Dr., you recommended that I add some water to Gertie's food and it seems to help. I am happy with the Water diet, Gertie has been eating this for over 1 year, I have noticed a great difference from eating kibbles to Chi Dog food. Geritie's hair is very smooth and she likes her food 😀 thank you ❤
Teresa
She’s a new dog, thanks to Chi Dog! She’s going to be 15, and yet she gets the zoomies almost daily! We’re all so grateful! Hey, here’s your new campaign!
Laurie
I will note this is the first food that has worked well for her. I've tried over 10 different foods and had found one that she could somewhat tolerate - Raw Bistro Dehydrated Turkey; however, she still had loose stool from time to time. She has not had one loose stool since transitioning her to this food. I have noticed a number of the edamame beans (and some carrots) in her stool, so I have been mashing the beans hoping to assist with digestion. This has helped some.
Sherry
The Chi Dog fire diet has been the answer to all of my dogs health issues. I currently serve this food to three dogs and can tell a remarkable difference in their health, their fur coat and their energy levels.
Cynthia
The folks at Chi Dog are professional, friendly and attentive to our needs. We needed to temporarily change our shipping schedule and the responded immediately. They are great to work with and deliver great value for the money you spend with them. Our Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, whose name is Archie and he is 4 months old, loves the Chi Dog food.

My dogs both love Chi Metal diet, and they are both SO picky, so I love that they love it!! According to our veterinarian, this is a very healthy food for them,so that’s another plus! Prior to switching to Chi Dog, my Labradoodle has recurrent ear infections frequently, since changing there have been much fewer!

My dogs love this food. One is on the Fire diet and the other is on the Metal diet. I have seen major improvements In both their health and their weight. One no longer has digestive issues and the other has very few (he has IBD and when he has a flare up, now rare, it only lasts hours, not days as in the past). Delivery is great, customer service is great, the product is the highest quality.
CR
Thank you for the opportunity to tell you about my journey with Magic! Since I got him at 9 weeks old, Magic has been really anxious and worried. I did a lot of basic training with Magic, and he’s a smart boy and loves the attention, but he had trouble focusing. Magic also didn’t have much of an “off switch” and was worried about most things. After consulting my vet (at the time) and a few canine behaviorists, a friend recommended Dr. Judy Saik for acupuncture. I could tell a difference after Magic’s first session with Dr. Judy, and she very quickly wanted to change his diet. I cooked for Magic for about a year, and then I discovered Chi Dog. I do believe Magic’s new diet, along with acupuncture and Trazadone, has helped him tremendously! Magic became more settled and focused, which allowed me to do more behavior modification as needed (such as chasing my two house cats). I can’t thank Dr. Judy and Chi Dog enough for allowing Magic to have a much happier and calmer life!

"I have three beautiful Yorkies that I have spent a fortune on, between trying different dog foods and vet bills... My dogs have been on Chi Dog since September 2023. I waited six months before writing to Chi Dog about their improvements...It takes time for a buildup of toxins or whatever causes my dogs to have a sensitive stomach, so I wanted to be sure that they continued to love the food and show improvements. All I can say, is the three of them, gobble the food down every day, no matter the recipe. Two of my dogs are on three different recipes, and Cody is on the Water Diet, which I bought specifically, with his kidney disease in mind, and I cannot tell you, the improvements he has made. JoJo does not suffer any gastritis, at all, now. I’m not sure how long it’s been since he had an episode, but it’s been quite a while. Needless to say, I am ecstatically happy. In the past six months, they have not been to the vet for illness. All I can say is, this food has worked wonderfully, for all three of my Yorkies."
She devoured your food as she has never done it before—even the oat milk as a snack!

Winston is doing great on his new Wood diet. He has always been an eager eater but I think he is more excited with the wood diet than his old kibble. We weaned him onto the new food per your instructions and he has had no intestinal issues. His feces seem smaller and are healthy in appearance. All is good. Thank you for your good, healthy food for our Winston.
Dr, Bohrer
Mika is doing very well on her specialized food therapy diet from Chi Dog. She actually enjoys eating food now whereas before with commercially prepared and highly processed diets, she ate only when she got really hungry. The food is easy to prepare for her and it great to see her so very happy at meal times. Thank you for your exceptional customer service.
Dr. Patti
Little Dude, my Chihuahua, is 15 years old and we recently received the tough news that he has kidney disease. As the owner and founder of Pauli&Pets, I’ve always aimed to provide my pets with the same attention and care I offer my clients. For me, every health journey begins with food, and as someone who eats incredibly clean, it only makes sense for him to have the same opportunity. Initially, Little Dude refused the RX renal support food, which left me feeling hopeless as he began to lose weight and my vet wouldn't recommend anything other than the RX food. I tried cooking meals at home, but I was concerned that he wasn't receiving the right nutritional values needed for kidney support. That’s when I discovered Chi Dog. They were not only incredibly responsive, but they truly went above and beyond to ensure I had the right diet for him. Now, he's on the water diet and let me tell you—he LOVES mealtime! This came as a shock because he is incredibly picky if an eater. Since starting Chi Dog, he has not only regained weight but also gained more energy. His stool has returned to a healthy state, and he’s full of life, often getting the zoomies in the evening before bed. He constantly seeks love and attention, and his sleep has become deeper. His incontinence issues are now much more manageable. As I’ve always said, he is truly my forever puppy. At 15 years old, I pray and hope to spend many more years with him. Regardless of how much time we have left, I take comfort in knowing he is receiving the best nutrition and the most love possible. We are now planning to get our young and healthy Husky on Chi Dog as well as my clients so they can live longer and health lives. Thank you Chi Dog for helping me give Little Dude the food he deserves.

We used to have to coax Teddy to eat. Now, he lets us know when it's time to eat and he always cleans his bowl.

Shayna was suffering from severe IBS no matter what food I tried. Her veterinary acupuncturist suggested trying Chi Dog and like Magic she's fine. No More IBS issues. Thank you Chi Dog! I have recommended it to so many!

I initially heard about Chi Dig from our vet who recommended it for our senior dogs bladder stone issues. Biscuit has thrived on the Chi Dog water diet and loves it! I often give it to our 3 other dogs too! Highly recommend Chi Dog in general!

Frequently asked questions
Have questions? We’re here to help.
Yes. Our recipes were formulated, by Integrative Veterinarian Dr. Susan Bohrer. She worked with Dr. Edward Moser, an certified veterinary nutritionist, to balance our diets to meet and exceed AAFCO’s standards for all life stages, including the growth of large breed puppies. This means Chi Dog can be fed to all dogs, even growing puppies who will reach a mature weight of over 70 pounds.
Whole foods are real foods. When you read an ingredient on a package, you should be able to see it in the food. Chi Dog uses human grade ingredients that we would eat, not feed grade ingredients as in kibble and canned dog foods. When our labels read beets, carrots, and peas, you can see, feel, and smell these ingredients in the food.
No. We have supplemented our diets with Vitamin E (tocopherol) to help maintain the freshness of our diet and support your dog’s coat.
Carbohydrates are essential to living beings and can be found in grains and plants. They are an excellent source of stored energy in our dog’s diets. Processed carbohydrates, which are in most if not all kibble (dry dog food) recipes, are poor sources of nutrition. While carbohydrates from whole foods, as found in Chi Dog diets, are excellent sources of energy. As any healthy person knows, a fresh pasta and veggie salad is healthy, while processed mac-n-cheese in a box is not
Our eco-friendly shipping boxes are lined with Green Cell Foam and packed with enough dry ice to ensure that your pet's meals; stay cool until midnight of your delivery day. If your pet’s meals arrive after this time frame or they are partially thawed, the meals are still safe to consume as long as the food is cool to the touch.
