"I have been using the Chewy delivery service for a few years now, but it really came in handy when I left for a year long deployment. I had a family member care for my dog and Chewy allowed me to set up a recurring auto-ship order for my dog's food. The delivery was always on time and sent me emails..."

— Raedell

"All the cans were damaged & dented with 2 cans having the tops of the cans opened up. There was spilled canned dog food leaking all through the package. The shipping box wasn't damaged at all so they can't be to blame. Very unpleased with my first order. More than likely will be my last."

Bottom Line

The dog food is recommended, especially for dogs of small breeds, due to its high-quality formula and positive results. However, buyers should be cautious about potential packaging issues.
