Kind and Efficient

Recently a vitamin shipment was lost by the carrier. My problem received immediate attention and help to ensure the claim was validated and payment refunded. Not only is this a great product but the staff is great too. I had a great time tweaking my recipe and the vitamins work well with it. Gave up on the easy open as wasn't easy to re-seal for my fingers - and so---put the entire bag of vitamins in an airtight container.....solved that little situation. Thank you Balance It

Disappointed

I have been cooking a veterinarian recipe for my dogs for over 14 years , with supplements, and fatty acids , as well as omega 3s . This was so completely complicated and expensive, as well as not workable for more than one dog . Simply not sustainable in any way.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback, Elayne. We truly admire your dedication to your 22-year-old dog, and the effort you’ve put into home-cooking for him over the years. However, we're sorry to hear that you found our online process complicated.

Our free online Recipe Builder at balance.it/recipes is designed to create custom recipes for individual animal companions. We reviewed our previous communications with you in April and saw that a phone appointment was scheduled to assist you with generating passing results, as it appeared you were having difficulty doing so online by yourself. Unfortunately, we did not ever hear back to reschedule a follow-up call, and we would still be happy to assist you using the site to make recipes if you're still interested.

As nutrient requirements do not scale linearly between dogs of different weights, we generally recommend creating separate recipes for each dog. Users can then try to use the same exact ingredients for each companion to hopefully make the preparation process easier as we stated in our email to you. You can learn more from our FAQ titled 'I have two dogs, and one weighs twice as much as the other. Can I just feed twice as much of the same recipe to the bigger one?' at balance.it/faqs .

We also understand that some veterinarians offer paid custom formulation services and may be able to develop a single shared recipe that works for multiple companions when appropriate. This isn’t always possible with our free online tool, as it’s designed to ensure safe and accurate nutrition tailored to each companion’s specific needs and is not able to make decisions that a veterinary professional can given their full knowledge of their patients and what is called a valid veterinarian-client-patient relationship (VCPR).

Please feel free to reach out to our Customer Care Team at info@balanceit.com if you would like further assistance. We are always happy to help. We hope your dog(s) continue(s) to live (a) very long life/lives.

Balance It® Canine

Thank you for your five-star review, Pat! We appreciate your support.

I love that I can make customized meals for my dog and by adding in balance it I feel confident he is receiving all the nutrients he needs. The ziplock bag was a little confusing at first, but now I am fine with it.

Thank you for sharing your review, Linda! We're happy to hear that you 'love' that you can make customized meals for your dog with our free online Recipe Builder ( balance.it/recipes ) and that it helps you cook with confidence.

We're also glad to hear that you are now fine with the unique child-resistant-closure (CRC) on the 600 gram bags.

We hope Paxton is enjoying his homemade meals with Balance It® Canine.

Thank you

You're welcome, Ryan, and thank you for taking the time to leave a review for Balance It® Canine. We appreciate your support!

Great Vitamin Supplement

I've home cooked my little pet's (canine) food for several years now. She has significant GI issues and cannot tolerate the fat levels in most other dog foods. And so, she misses out on the vitamins and minerals added to those diets prepared outside the home. Balance IT is a great way for her to get her daily vitamins. I really saw improvement in her appetite and overall health once I incorporated Balance IT into her daily routine. Thank you Balance It for being there.

You're welcome, Donna, and thank you for taking the time to share your thoughtful review. We're so happy to hear that Balance It® Canine has been a 'great' addition to Missy's daily routine.

We hope she continues to do well!

Healthy and happy

My sweet boxer mix has leaned out since we took her off dry kibble and has lots of energy I can attribute it to her new diet. She looks forward to every meal.

Thank you for sharing your review, Danielle! It's great to hear that you noticed a positive difference in your Boxer mix and that she is looking forward to her meals. We hope she continues to be 'healthy and happy.'

Perfect for my 12 year old dog

This produce was a life-send for my dog three years ago...it helped save her life and I am forever grateful!

Thank you for sharing your dog's experience with us, L.J. We are touched to hear that Balance It® Canine played a helpful part of Trixie's routine and was a 'life-send'.

We appreciate your kind words and support!

Do you have a coupon?

Thank you for the five-star review, Michelle!

While we appreciate your question, we do not offer discounts. Instead, we keep all of our prices as low as possible at all times for all of our customers.

If you are looking to save money, we suggest speaking to your veterinarian about feeding a commercially prepared dry dog or cat food. Our founder has co-authored multiple studies along with faculty at leading veterinary schools (e.g., J Am Vet Med Assoc. 2022;260(S3):S53-S60 ) that show that while home cooked food (aka human) grade diets may be less expensive than canned or wet feed (aka animal) grade food, they cost more than comparable kibble or dry feed grade commercially prepared diets. Overall we are confident that our ecosystem of technical expertise & support, free recipes, and human dietary supplement grade Balance It® supplements provide the best overall value and convenience possible. In multiple cases, we also offer the only all-in-one supplement for the nutritional management of certain medical conditions.

We hope that Molly is doing well.

The BEST vet check-ups

My vet says that my dogs skin, teeth, and overall health (bloodwork, muscles, joints, etc.) is some of the BEST that they have seen and largely contribute it to their dog food. I have French Bulldog mixes and they can have lots of issues... and mine have none. I truly attribute it to the recipes with the additives that I purchase from Balanceit for their great health!

Thank you for sharing your positive review for Balance It® Canine, Joseph. We're thrilled to hear that your French Bulldog mixes are in such great health!

We appreciate you sharing your experience and hope they continue to feel their best.
