"Dog loves the size for helping to clean her teeth. Also, this food is the only one besides those expensive fake foods that help her not get those bladder stones anymore. This food is all natural and she loves it."
"I have 3 dogs that will eat literally anything and 2 fuss budgets. It must smell good because they took a bite and either started to chew or as soon as the flavor hit, spit it out. I thought let me add it to their other food and see what happens.....they ate around First Mate :(."
Bottom Line
Highly recommended for dogs with specific dietary needs. While mostly positive, be aware of potential issues with picky eaters and delivery.
