"I love the human grade aspect of this food and my pup loves the taste and smell."

— Tom

"I learned today that Chewy sells this product at the same cost as “fresh” year expiration date dog food for the SAME price as food that has degraded in their warehouse for about a year. The consumer is getting cheated. And so I would not recommend this product I learned today that Chewy sells..."
