"My 10 year old rescue boxer mix Riley is a very picky eater. He loves the can food from Dave's! He eats the entire can!"

— redroadruby

"This product has deteriorated in quality to the extent that I will no longer purchase it. The last order I received in June, this product had a consistency that was so wet it nearly poured out of the can."

Most dogs seem to enjoy this entree, but be mindful of the runny texture and ensure it matches your pet’s preferences.
