Dogs love this
By Thh101 on Feb 4, 2019
I have a Cane Corso and she loves this food, specifically the Beef. I’m only on the 2nd bag but I’m impressed because her stools are better and the other dog that eats this seems to be a lot better allergy-wise

My dogs love this
By Momof5 on Nov 17, 2018
I have been feeding my 5 dogs Bill Jac and it just seemed to have been a little dry for them, not enough flavor. I had to add flavor to it or they just wouldn’t eat it. This food they all started eating right off the bat.
