Why did I choose FirstMate dog food?  Actually it was by chance after scanning the rows and rows of Pet Food wondering what next to buy for our ever selective golden retrievers whose taste buds constantly want more new and exciting flavours to suit their palate.

FirstMate stood out among the rest for me due to its 100% natural ingredients and high level of quality guaranteed.  Being a leader, FirstMate was the first company to introduce Grain Free formulas for pets which I strongly believe in.

There has been no looking back since our first pack of FirstMate!  Our dogs have not grown tired of the taste.  They simply love it and eat everything in one go.  Their 2 favorite flavours are Chicken and Blueberries and Pacific Ocean Fish which is very rich in omega 3 and 6 fatty acids that is excellent for skin and coat.

FirstMate has not disappointed us from the start and it’s been more than 1 year without any change of dog food brand.  Thanks FirstMate for giving us the quality our pets deserve!

Time to give FirstMate a try for yourself and see the difference we did!!

I started keeping my first cat about one year ago and without much knowledge, I was introduced to a generic brand and was told it was good. It seemed like my cat was enjoying it. As I started to keep more cats, I read to expand my cat knowledge and to my horror, what I feeding was mainly grains.  So I started to look for a grain free kibble. One of the most popular brand kibble smells like plastic - I wouldn't wanna eat needless to say I would definitely not want to feed it to my cats. Another tip top brand has no smell at all, who will eat something so tasteless?!  Then I bought another excellent and expensive brand - my most fussiest cat loves it to the Max and even beg for it everyday, after consuming 2 packs of it, she shred the most and maximum....  every single touch, will bring big huge chunk of fur out.

During this period of time, I was introduced to FirstMate and some samples was given to my 2 other cats whom is not as fussy will consume it. Nice and pleasant kibble. After consuming 1 bag of 2.3 kg, I can see the significant change, poo is less smelly & fur shredding is much lesser. They are also consuming much lesser as it should be much more filling & their breath is not as smelly as before too.

I have seen many pets benefit from changing to FirstMate Pet Foods, in terms of their coat, urine pH, digestion, stool, and in some cases of suspected allergies. I am pleased to have found a dry food that is made locally in B.C. and does not use synthetic preservatives, sulfates, fillers, beef, wheat and corn. This food is highly palatable for most pets, likely due to its freshness and high standard of ingredients and production.

Firstly, I just want to commend you on your awesome dog food. We have a bugg (boston terrier/pugxx) and he's had nothing but problems since he was a baby. He had a small stroke, eyes don't close properly, and he had a blockage before he was 1. He has chronic diarrhea. We had to keep him on metronidazole until we found your dog food. 


THANK YOU for making a dog food with the right nutritional ingredients and higher fiber for sensitive guys like ours. He is alive, happy, healthy, and fit because of your awesome food. I can't say enough good things about it. One request though...can you make a smaller kibble for the smash-face pugs? He struggles with the big kibble. Thanks!!!

I just had to write and tell you about the impact your food has had on our life. My husband and I have two wiener dogs, Mandi and Harley and they are the love of our lives. We feed them Firstmate, because it is the first dog food that did not cause embarrassing dandruff in their black coats. A little while back there was a terrible dog food scare and we told everyone we knew that those sorts of things wouldn’t happen if they used your product because the produce and meat are locally purchased and you treat our dog’s food as though you were going to eat it yourselves. Recently we were treated to a tour of your plant and I was so pleased to see the level of cleanliness and care that was taken in preparing the food.

We started feeding FirstMate after fostering for a local rescue. They supplied a bag for our foster kitties and our resident cats liked it so much that we kept it up! Today I bought a bag of the Fish & Potato with Blueberries and not only did my cat Motor rip the bag open, he eagerly ate bits of the food as a treat! I love that FirstMate is made locally in BC with minimal ingredients.. and it turns out that Motor and Mabel agree!

I am so pleased that our Axel (Our 2 year old German Sheppard) will no longer suffer due to food allergies. FirstMate supersedes veterinarian prescription diets which Axel reacted to.

I have a cat that I adopted from a shelter. They had her on a competitors high quality food which I continued for a little while. She is a Domestic Short hair but I noted her coat was very dull and even frizzy at the base of her sine by her tail. One month on FirstMate and she has a very shiny coat and the frizz is all gone. I just wanted you to know how much I love your products and I tell everyone I meet who has a dog or cat how good the products are.
