β€” Charissa

"My dog is 15+ and his teeth are pretty worn down. He was getting board with his other dry food so I gave this a try. Even though there is crunchy with the chewy kibble, he really likes it! I do put some Pedigree chopped chicken or turkey in with it as well so I can hide his pills."

β€” Roger

"Have two dogs. This the second time I tried some new food. Both times the same dog would not eat it. And the other liked it. I went back to the food they were on. And all is good again. Tried getting them some food a little smaller and was softer. You don't know unless you try."

Bottom Line

If your dog enjoys smaller bites and has a sensitive stomach, this could be a good option. Monitor closely if you have multiple dogs, as preferences may vary.
