  Nature's Variety kibble size change Reply Contact So I opened up a new bag of Nature's Variety Praire Beef and Barley, and the kibble is so much smaller than what I remember.  Now this is great news for me as I'm feeding a tiny 8lb dog, but I can't imagine a large breed eating it.  The kibbles are about the size of the "small bites" version of other brands.  I've been rotating other foods for the past few months so this is the first bag I've bought in a while.  I don't know if the other "flavors" have this small kibble size as well.  Just wanted to give an FYI to anyone interested in trying it.

Most big dogs don't really chew their food (for some reason the little ones always seem to chew much better) , so I think its better digested for them in tiny pieces than big kibbles.

  Re: Nature's Variety kibble size change Reply Contact  I hereby declare a moratorium on all commercial product names for pets, that have "Nature" - or any form thereof - as a part of the name.  Seriously, you'd think they could come up with something else.  My favorite so far - "Naturally Wild" from Euk.  Okay, so what would "Artificially Wild" be?  A release program?  Like the California Condors?
