SO FAR SO GOOD -4PICKY PUPS
By SusieQ21 on May 12, 2020
My 8+year old pack has been accepting this new food well. I am weaning them off the older food gradually and due to the difference in kibble sizes left, they are ok with eating this food for seniors with weight reduction. I LOVE the zip lock on the bag to seal in the flavor and I have such easy access to the product. I will be ordering this again! The small kibbles work for my tiny one up through to the English Cocker who needs the most weight loss. She and the tiny one have knee issues and the chondroitin has to be helpful. Lower fat and protein for their age group is a plus. This food good nutritional reviews.

My senior Dachshund LOVES this food!
By grzswald on Jun 28, 2020
My Lil' dachshund lady dog loves this food! She's always eager to eat and has lost her wee little rolly polly belly! She's a long haired miniature, sable and black. I highly recommend this senior food.

Kinda disappointed
By Bandit on May 26, 2020
I had read about a different vet who created his own dog food and thought this might possibly be an affordable alternative. I was disappointed the first ingredient was chicken meal... I should have read ingredients before ordering my mistake. Our dog is not crazy about it always add canned food to get him to eat it.

Furmoms been sick so Bernie hasn't gained weight
By bernermom on Feb 21, 2020
Ive been dealing with health issues and haven't been able 2 take my Bernese Mtn Dog on his regular walks BUT I've haven't cut down on his treats either bcuz he's been such a great nurse and companion(I know I feel terrible) Anyway hes on Dr Gary's Salmon and veggie formula with a spoonful of tripe. And b4 I got sick his weight was perfect in fact all his issues cleared up once he started Dr Gary's!!! So, we are going 2 start him on this formula and see if we can't get these extra pounds off. He is 3 yrs old and I know the green mussels are great for him!!! Will update on Bernie the Service Dog in 3 or 4 months. Thanks Chewy and thanks Dr Gary's for always being there for Bernie and me.

I really appreciate knowing Bernie is getting the best commercially made dog food available and Dr Gary's is always available to answer our questions. It's reassuring to know that Bernies food is made with human ingredients in small batches in a small veterinary owned business. … more

Truely Best
By Yummy on Mar 27, 2020
I feed my 6 YO GSD this dog not because she is a senior but because it is reduced calorie. She gets to maintain her beautiful figure and get all the benefits of this wonderful holistic food. Thank you Dr. Gary

They love it
By Momo on Feb 7, 2020
Had to change their food do to age and weight, I ordered this because it is the brand I use for my cats. The vet said my cats were in great physical condition in every area they check so I figured why not get it for my dogs. I'm still changing over but so far so good.

Palatable food
By Bonnie on Jan 27, 2020
I ordered this product at the suggestion of my breeder. Bonnie has some digestive issues and it appears Dr. Gary’s is going to work fine for her. With in a day or two she was doing much better.

I gave this one to the shelter too, I was hoping I could stop mixing the 7+ with weight management but she won't touch this one, so back to mixing.

Chemical Smell
By Debb on Dec 6, 2019
I’ve used this brand in the past and thought it was a decent food. This bag arrived with the inner seal open and a very unusual STRONG chemical smell to the food. The slide closure on the bag rocks and makes it so easy to handle large bags but there appears to be some equality control issues.
