Exceptional Service
By Connie on Feb 19, 2020
I recently received a defective bag of dog food in my auto shipment. It had a small opening in it so I called to let them know. I spoke with a person rather than going through a long series of computerized choices, and I was given wonderful, prompt service. I was given a new bag of dog food and a credit to allow me to purchase a small bag to tide me over until the new bag came. To me, in this day of computerized impersonal service, this was above and beyond great customer service. You have a loyal customer. Thank you, Chewy!

They love it
By BamaFanSSI on Mar 23, 2020
All three dogs love it. It is healthier than most brands and not too expensive like some. I love the fact that the kibbles are small. We have two big dogs and one smaller. This way they can all have the same food.

Wonderful for multiple dogs
By Azariah on Mar 24, 2020
I have two dogs, one 13 yrs and tiny, the other 3 yrs and large. Both will eat this with no problems, though they do prefer it with wet food. Great food for a reasonable price.
