Good stuff
By BonnieJean on Nov 7, 2021
Was feeding our almost toothless 16 year old Jack Rat the K9 Natural Freeze Dried chicken food on top of her Dry BilJac food to get her to eat. We also started giving it to her as a treat being she can’t chew dog treats any more. Apparently the K9 Natural is sitting on a boat somewhere as we couldn’t get it any more. The Instinct brand was a recommended substitute and is it ever awesome! It’s not all crumbly and smashed like the K9 and our little dog loves it. Sticking with it and not going back to K9!

Love Luv Wuv
By MMmm on Oct 27, 2021
My dog adores this food. I have never seen her so excited over anything as she gets when I serve this up. She will finish everything off her plate just to let me know she is ready for her afternoon freeze-dried. She is seasoned in age and missing several teeth and this food has been a blessing in its softness and ease to chew.

Not what I wanted
By Sudie on Nov 1, 2021
Not what I thought I was purchasing. I wanted the frozen food. Can’t seem to find it. Don’t really have much else to say but you are asking for more words than I need to describe it wasn’t what I wanted.

Sharp piece
By Rachel on Jun 23, 2021
I bought this for my dogs to use as a topper. When I was crumbling it I felt something sharp, and there was a small piece of something sharp in one of the pieces(maybe not ground enough bone?). Definitely will not be buying again, glad I found the sharp piece instead of one of my dogs.

This is only 9.5 ounces for $21.95
By nwilt on Apr 7, 2021
I misread and thought I was getting 9lbs 5ounces for 21.95. While my beagle would eat it, I didn't realize it was only 9.5 ounces and for me it isn't budget friendly. I have fed her Natures Variety Instinct exclusively for several years and she likes their beef raw boost grain-free recipe the best. I have used their rabbit grain free recipe and I thought I was ordering the chicken grain free recipe this time. I will say this about Chewy...they always aim to please. Thank you for your excellent customer service.

Game Changer
By Lucy on May 20, 2021
Although I’ve always fed too quality foods to my pets, switching to raw has been a completely different game! It’s helped in so many positive ways.

Really good stuff
By Hope on Feb 1, 2021
Got this as my little Japanese Chin was getting tired of her Tiki Dog. She still loved it, but was not wanting to eat it like she did when we found it a year ago. So I decided to research and try something again different. She is picky and finding things she likes it not easy. She liked the Stella & Chewy raw so I thought she might like this as a change. Stella & Chewy patties she still ate, but I felt a new type might be a nice change. This also has the veggies, fruit and antioxidants along with being Freeze Dried Raw which is good for our pets. It is also Grain Free which I have to have for Hope or she digs herself silly if she eats anything with grain in it.

It is also Grain Free which I have to have for Hope or she digs herself silly if she eats anything with grain in it. Took a while to find out that it was not fleas, or any thing other than grain causing it. So got a smaller bag of this to try and she loved it. She did not even wait for her warm milk bowl next to the food to be filled so she could eat. She ate this and then asked for her milk. So that is a great win. My cat Boots who is having urinary problems again asked for a bite as he could smell it and loves Stella & Chewy so he took a couple pieces of this and was happy to feel like he was stealing something. I may try the cat one next for him after I get his crystals all out of his system. So this is a wonderful thing for picky eaters. Dog and cat alike. … more

AMAZING, MY DOG LOVED IT!

Great for small dogs
By Fioletowaryba on Jan 4, 2021
These are really small. Great for our chihuahuas while we are doing the dreaded nail clipping. Clip a nail or two give a treat, clip another nail give a treat. Best results we’ve had clipping nails so far. So very helpful. There are a lot in that little tiny bag but there are easily enough for us to use one treat per nail clipped.

My dog is crazy about it
By Saki on Feb 15, 2021
This is the only kibble my dog would eat(actually it is not kibble). This is better than Orijen but more expensive too. I feed her this when I don't have time to prepare fresh food.
