" My very picky dog with allergies loves this. She eats it all every time. I officially have her transitioned over to this food. She no longer has goopy eyes and no more paw stains from licking. So happy I found this food."

— Meghan

"Just opened my second bag with no freeze dried pieces. My dogs are not happy! Hoping my next shipment is better otherwise I will be switching food. Also, love this food, but dogs will refuse the bag with no pieces."

Bottom Line

A great option for those seeking high-quality dog food, despite some minor inconsistencies in packaging.
