"MY DOGS LOVE THIS CANNED FOOD MIXED IN W THEIR DRY DOG FOOD. IT MIXES VERY EASILY, 1/4 CUP FOR BOTH DOGS MIXED IN ONCE A DAY. I HAVE 2 SENIOR DOGS THAT ARE PUPPIES AT MEAL TIME."
"I haven't really decided yet whether I like this food or not; however, my dog seems to like it and it's not aggravating her IBS, so I guess it's okay.
