Highlighted Reviews
"My 17 y.o. senior dog doesn't eat much anymore, or so I thought! I tried this new brand of wet food to mix in with her kibble, and she scarfed it like Thanksgiving turkey! She even ASKS for breakfast now and does a little dance while I'm preparing it. She LOVES it!"
"One of the tubs was spoiled - opened it up and it had turned to liquid with a raunchy odor. Threw it out, cleaned up, but the odor lingered for hours. Need to let True Acres know to step up their quality control system."
Bottom Line
This product is a good choice for dogs that like wet food, but buyers should be vigilant about quality control issues.
