"Finally found a puppy food that my super protein sensitive baby can eat! I do have to soak it until it is 100% soft, but he is now THRIVING!!"

β€” Connie

"Not anyone’s fault but mine for not reading, but the second ingredient in the Salmon & Brown Rice is chicken meal. I was avoiding chicken. I will try her on this bag and see how she does, but I’m planning on switching food next time."
