"Bonnie is 16, a very active, sturdy 16. I am sure that this food is helping keep her kidneys steady as the values are unchanged for two years. She has had soft stools as well and she seems better on this food."

— Kacy

Our boy won't touch this. When we were slowly mixing it into his regular food, he would go out of his way to pick it ..."
