Karmy dog food
Choosing pet food is a crucial decision, determining their health and often their lifespan. Among the vast number of options on the market, a premium brand, Karmy, has emerged.
The brand is currently in the early stages of its market entry, but due to its rapid growth in popularity, many dog owners have already tried and appreciated it, and veterinarians have already formed their opinions on the product.

Manufacturer
Karmy products have been manufactured in Russia since 1989, but the company entered the domestic market several years ago. The manufacturers set themselves the goal of creating high-quality food that rivals foreign counterparts. The developers developed new formulas based on the consolidated and analyzed experience of veterinarians worldwide, taking into account past mistakes and the latest advances in veterinary nutrition. During development, they collaborated closely with a number of kennels raising dogs of various breeds.
The production facilities incorporate the most modern technologies, using equipment from American, Dutch, and Italian manufacturers. The company has implemented a multi-level control system capable of monitoring all stages, from the receipt of raw materials to the final product.
Advantages and disadvantages
Karmi dog food is premium in every respect, as it is formulated with dogs' age, weight, and health in mind. All raw materials are sourced from domestic farms and agricultural enterprises, ensuring high quality and compliance with environmental standards. This also allows for a stable price, unaffected by currency fluctuations.
The undeniable advantages of Karmi include the following:
- a balanced ratio of protein components and fats guarantees excellent physical shape without gaining excess weight;
- The composition does not contain by-products, food colorings, flavorings or flavor additives that cause increased appetite;
- a balanced ratio of minerals helps maintain the function of the animal's vital organs;
- The presence of chondroprotectors guarantees excellent joint condition, as well as maintaining activity and mobility even in old age of the pet;
- A wide range of products that allows you to choose food for a dog of any size.
Among the disadvantages of Karmi, the following factors can be highlighted:
- The food is packaged only in large containers, making it difficult to purchase in small quantities. If you need to buy a small amount, you'll need to find a pet supply store that sells it in bulk.
- Currently, Karmi food is not a well-known brand, so it's not available in every pet store. Most often, owners are forced to purchase Karmi products online.
Compound
This brand's dog food formula fully meets the premium category. It boasts not only a high-quality and balanced composition but also a wide range of essential supplements.
Karmi consists of:
- Dehydrated turkey, lamb, and salmon meat. Dehydration involves slow dehydration (drying), which preserves all the essential nutrients without heat treatment.
- Brown rice is the primary carbohydrate source. Brown rice is much more easily digested than white rice and provides the digestive system with essential slow-digesting carbohydrates, which prevents dogs from overeating.
- Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids, derived from a natural source—salmon oil—provide the body with everything it needs to maintain a healthy coat and skin.
- Natural brewer's yeast acts as a supplier of mannanoligosaccharides, which increase the animal's immunity.
- Probiotics from two different groups ensure ideal digestion and minimize the risk of functional pathologies of the digestive system.
- Minerals and vitamins necessary for hematopoiesis, vision, cardiovascular and other systems.
- Yucca schidigera extract acts as an antioxidant component that can boost immune system function. It also helps reduce unpleasant stool odor.
- Seaweed powder. An ingredient that balances digestion through plant fiber and adsorbs and removes heavy metals.
Range and prices
The Karmi brand offers a wide range of dog food for dogs of various physiological conditions and sizes, providing everything your pet needs to be active and feel good.
Carmi has developed food in four main areas:
- for puppies;
- for adult dogs;
- for animals with a high probability of allergic reactions;
- a separate line "For the most devoted".
For puppies
This range includes smaller-than-average kibble sizes and reduced hardness, making them easy for baby teeth to chew. There are 15 kg packs for puppies of all breeds, as well as medium and large breeds.
The same Karmi line also includes a Starter variety, which is suitable not only as the first adult food for offspring, but also for pregnant bitches during pregnancy, after birth, and during breastfeeding.

The price of this line in retail stores starts at 2,700 rubles and reaches 4,900 rubles for a 15 kg package. In online pet stores, the price ranges from 2,300 to 2,800 rubles.
Hypoallergenic
A recipe that eliminates most potential allergens while maintaining a balanced composition and all the essential nutritional components. You can choose from two options: one based on salmon and brown rice, while the other emphasizes lamb and rice.
15 kg packages can be purchased in stores for 3.0-3.9 thousand rubles, and online for 2.5-3.0 thousand rubles.

Reviews
Most reviews of Karmi dog food are positive.
Elena, owner of a shepherd kennel:
"Choosing the right food for me is extremely important, as the health of all my pets and my income depend on it. I was forced to switch to Karmi because the brand I was previously using discontinued its products. I was pleased that all my pets made the switch without any problems. It's clearly noticeable that their feces have decreased, indicating that all the nutrients in the formula are being digested well. The price-quality ratio is very good for me."
Arsen Mamedov, veterinarian:
"I recently learned about Karmi through my work and have already appreciated its qualities. Show dogs fed this type of diet show excellent coat quality. Other dogs require vitamins and supplements to achieve the same results, while here, everything is taken care of from the start."
Tamara Khokhlova:
"I tried to choose a food for my puppy that listed meat, not grains, as the top ingredient. Karmi didn't disappoint; the puppy gained weight beautifully and is almost an adult now. The only downside is that this dog food isn't available in our town, so I order it online. It's cheaper that way."

I've been feeding my dog this food for several months now, and he's become much more active and happier. His coat has also improved.

Hello. My furry children have been eating Karmi for about a year and have tried almost the entire menu. And now I have been studying other holistic products for several days now. Since my boy first developed a crust on veal, I stopped feeding him (a 15 kg bag was thrown out), then his ears started to run on turkey. For about six months, my boys have been eating only hypoallergenic food with lamb, and this food causes the dogs' eyes to turn red and their ears to run... Something has changed for the worse at this production facility over the past year. I will never return to this manufacturer again, since treatment costs a lot of money, and most importantly, the pets suffer. I will also take the cats off this food. My daughter's cat got sick with microbial heart disease after I brought them a 10 kg bag for old cats... I think it is time for Karmi to sunset its activity in the food market. I will try to leave this information on many resources review so that as few dogs and cats as possible are harmed.

We inherited this dog from a foster home, but we didn't take him back. We fed him cheap dog food loaded with all sorts of attractants, so he had a hard time giving it up. We had to fast him for a day without water. But now we've switched completely to "karmy," and he's certainly perked up. His coat is shiny, he's playful, his breath has stopped smelling, and his bowel movements have returned to normal. He's lucky he stayed with us.

The food has had a great impact on the dog's behavior! I was sure he was just lazy, but it turns out I was just imagining it. Now walks are always accompanied by running and jumping, and at home he's become more active, remembering his balls. It's just a shame it's sold in only one pet store, so ordering isn't always convenient for me.

We used to feed our dog a natural diet, but now we've been taking him to the dacha and hiking often, so he's not exactly prepared. We switched him to a dry food diet called Karmy. There were some difficulties during the transition while his digestion adjusted, but now he's fine. He's feeling well, eating happily, and getting full. He begs for treats, of course, but not excessively.
Yuri
I bought this food for my cat. He's very pleased with it. His coat is of good quality and he has no health issues. He's not gaining weight. He's neutered. Overall, it's not bad. I'll continue feeding him this food.
