This can give shoppers an idea of what to expect when the sale begins in 2023.

Wet food
Packed with nutrients, vitamins, and healthy ingredients, wet food is great for dogs. The following are some popular wet food deals from past Black Friday sales. Remember, these are the best-selling brands whose treats are always in demand.

1. Caru Pet Food’s Real Pork Stew is made from human-grade ingredients without by-products that could harm dogs. It’s free of artificial colors, flavors, preservatives, and gums. Instead, the meal is packed with vegetables and fruits that are safe and healthy for canines. This careful formula provides a lot of nutrients and vitamins for better health. The 12-pack variant, which usually costs around $59.88, was priced at $44.91 for Black Friday a couple of years ago.

2. NUTRO also has some excellent wet foods for dogs. One of its products, the Hearty Stews Adult Wet Dog Food, comes in a pack of 12. It originally costs around $34.68, but customers could grab it for $28.24 during past Black Friday sales. The stew is made using farm-raised turkey, sweet potato, and green beans, all healthy ingredients for dogs. The meal is also grain-free, ensuring easy digestion for pets.

3. Chewy currently has discounts on Blue Buffalo’s Wilderness Beef and Chicken Grill canned dog food. Its original price is around $116, but one can get it for $105. Similar or better deals can be expected for Black Friday 2023.

Dry food
Popularly known as kibble, dry dog food is convenient and healthy. Pet parents constantly look for these products; some even purchase them in bulk and store them for months. Of course, one must always check the expiry date of the meal and ensure it’s safe for pets.

4. In the past, American Journey has had Black Friday discounts on its Salmon and Sweet potato recipe. The original price of this grain-free formula was $44.99, but it was available for 40% off.

5. One of Purina’s popular products, the Beneful Grain Free With Farm Raised Chicken, usually costs $34.48. However, Black Friday had brought its price down by 24% to $26.29 in the past. Pet parents can hope for similar deals on Purina’s formula in 2023.

Chicken recipes
Chicken is an excellent source of protein for dogs. Consequently, many brands include it as one of their main ingredients.

6. IAMS’s Minichunks Adult Dry Food originally costs around $32.98 but was available for $24.98 during past Black Friday sales. Farm-raised chicken is the main ingredient in this recipe. The formula ensures pets get the required fiber, protein, and prebiotics. It also has ingredients rich in antioxidants that help keep the pet’s immune system healthy and ready to fight infections.

7. Chicken Soup for the Soul is a sought-after brand among pet parents during Black Friday. Its Mature Chicken, Turkey, and Duck canned recipe usually costs $33.48 but was available for $24.25 during the past sales.

Food for large breeds
Large breeds have unique nutritional requirements, which pet parents must consider while shopping during the Black Friday sale.

9. Royal Canin’s Size Health Nutrition Large Breed Dry Dog Food sold for $75.32 instead of $80.99 during Black Friday a few years ago. It’s a specially curated kibble for large dog breeds over five. The treat has ingredients rich in antioxidants that help fight the first signs of aging and support vitality. Bone health becomes fragile with age, so the formula has the right nutrition for bone and joint health. Additionally, it has fiber to help with digestion in dogs.

10. Hill’s Adult Large Breed Lamb Meal and Brown Rice recipe was available at a discounted price of $64.99 instead of $71.99 in past Black Friday sales. It’s a dry recipe formulated to meet the health requirements of bigger breeds.

When shopping for dog food, one must consider their pet’s breed, size, activity level, and particular nutritional requirements. It’s best to compare multiple formulas before choosing one.
