Now, I will preface this review by the fact that Ruth is a beagle, very food motivated and not really food discriminating. She really loves this kibble, especially with some wet food.

One of our Labrador Retrievers which is a Champion show dog was fed this puppy food as soon as she was bred and the puppy weights were excellent much better than on other dog food and their mom was super healthy as well. I feed Science diet but this is the first time I tried this puppy food for a pregnant female and was pleased with the results. I plan to feed the puppies as they grow older this same puppy food. .

The quality and cuteness of this Christmas sweater were awesome. Unfortunately, it was way too big for my puppy. Chewy was happy to refund and ask that I donate it to a local rescue. Montana and I are dropping it off at the rescue that saved her. Merry Christmas!

Too tiny bites

I was trying to find a normal size kibble for my puppy. He doesn’t like the tiny kibble. I ordered the size between the tiny and large bite. They are not much bigger

I was trying to find a normal size kibble for my puppy. He doesn’t like the tiny kibble. I ordered the size between the tiny and large bite. They are not much bigger than the tiny bite. My dog doesn’t eat them. He would rather eat my senior dogs large bites. Now I have a large bag of food not being eaten.

Great food

Our boy Skeeter loves this food. He was put on it by the breeder and we just continued to feed it. He had firm poop 2-3 times a day. He is 6.5 months old.

Kibble

It’s kibble. She eats it and seems to like it. Can’t outwardly tell if it’s any better than another brand.

Poor delivery

The delivery driver left the dog food at the end of the driveway, in the grass with all the ants. I have specifically asked for it to be delivered to the front

Best for Bostons

We have tried other high quality brands, but for some reason Hills Science Diet is the only brand that doesn’t cause my Bostons gas. Huge difference.
