β€” Susan

"I switched foods because what I was feeding was discontinued. My girl loves this. and I'm happy because she doesn't seem to have a bad reaction to it. Her poops are still ok. I do worry because there is no grain in it. So I add rice to her meal"

β€” Kate

"I was so hoping to find a new food for my dog that won’t cause skin issues. I need chicken free food for her and didn’t read the label. Now she had an ear infection and her bell is red and itchy. My fault for not reading the label."
