Highlighted Reviews
"Kona is PICKY and these freeze dried pellets are easy for me to squeeze into "dust" and put over his food like a powder. HE LOVES THEM and it gets him going to eat the rest of his meal."
"I thought this would have a strong smell of fish and therefore appealing to my picky pup. He smelled it wouldn’t even try it - even when labeled as a “treat”. I thought he’d at least mull it over with a try - no appealing scent for him. Bummed!"
