What are the contents of chicken meal?and why is this good for my dog is it real chicken meat?i want to make sure it’s not chicken feet ,chicken heads or dead carcasses

Answer by ChewySep 14, 2019
Chicken meal is a high quality concentrated protein source that contains muscle meat. By law it may not contain heads, feet or intestines.

How much of the protein is derived from animal vs plant sources?

Answer by ChewyApr 19, 2019
95% of the protein in this product comes from meat sources, and the rest comes from plant sources.

I have a 2 1/2 year old sheltie that has more urinary tract infections that I couldn't count. In fact she is on amocillin Trihydrate & Clavulanate Pottassiom Tablets now. She also takes Crananidin every day and I started using distilled water for her. Is it appropriate for a two year old?

Answer by ChewyFeb 26, 2019
Due to your pet's condition and medication she takes, we encourage consulting your Veterinarian to see what food would be safe for them. Each pet's condition can vary and the vet will be able to monitor them and give the best recommendations according to your pet's tested levels.

This is the first time I have tried this dried food, and so far, my guy is pooping regularly and no loose stools, gas or excessive itching. He doesn't like it as much as his canned food, but he eats it when I put some of his snacks in it. Actually, he doesn't like any kind of dried food very much, so I just buy what I can see is best for him when it comes to stools and any stomach issues. I'm just surprised that the first ingredient is ground brown rice instead of chicken. Anyway, this limited ingredient special needs food is working out well so far. Whatever they leave out or put in the food is working.

Loves this Brand

It's always aggravating to buy expensive dog food, only to see it in the bowl still, hours later. Zoey finishes this food when served.

kibble for IBD/IBS symptoms

I rescued a Beagle Basset stray from Texas 3 months ago. She has been unable to eat any kind of kibble until I found Special Needs Canine Caviar. I have my older

I rescued a Beagle Basset stray from Texas 3 months ago. She has been unable to eat any kind of kibble until I found Special Needs Canine Caviar. I have my older dogs on this food too and they are both having zero stomach issues. No gas or ingestion. One of the older dogs (Beagle Heeler) tried the lamb millet formula but the millet did not agree with him, similar to the Beagle Basset, the millet was a big no. The senior Blue Heeler loves the Chicken Special Needs and is looking fit and trim. I have a 3 yr old Red Heeler on the Lamb and Millet and he is thriving on it. All of the dogs are happy and content with Canine Caviar- I cannot recommend this food enough. The price is great-I don't have to be a personal chef to the Beagle Basset and the other dogs are so healthy I know I'm preventing future illness by feeding such a high quality low alkaline food.

After a year of researching due to a Great Dane with a sensitive stomach I hit pay dirt with this wonderful kibble. To boot he LOVES the food! I can only say with anyone owning a dog with digestive issues, allergies, intolerance's, or other medical issues that linger, try it, you have nothing to lose. Great food.

Purchased this because my little guy has a lot of food sensitivities. The pieces are big for a 6lb dog so that makes it harder for him to eat. He doesn’t seem to eat it in its own. I need to add something he likes and try to mix it. Had to buy an 11lb bag as that was the smallest. If it doesn’t improve will have a lot of food to donate. Wish they had the 4lb bag to try when I ordered.
