Sprinkle as is over your dog's current diet for a daily nutrient boost (water not required). Use a standard 8oz cup and fill to the measurements indicated in the feeding guide.
Gradually transition your pet to any new food over the course of 7-14 days to help avoid the digestive upset that abrupt changes in diet can cause. If your pet tends to be on the sensitive side, it may be best to take a little extra time. 1. Start by feeding your pet a mix of 25% new food and 75% old food for the first few days. 2. Then, increase the amount of new food to about 50% and feed that half-and-half mix for a few days. 3. Proceed to feeding 75% new food/25% old food for the next few days. 4. Complete the transition by feeding just the new food on its own.

The sayings, "you are what you eat", and "you get what you pay for", really have a lot of meaning behind them! I have 3 large dogs: 2 are 9, 1 is 8 1/2, and NO health issues, at all, not even ear issues with chicken, as many dogs do. There are no fillers, rice, potatoes, or any other JUNK. All 3 are vibrant. playful, and energetic! I can't say enough. As far as cost, that's the downside, but it's the same as feeding 3 people for the month. I'm by no means wealthy, I just want "Simply The Best".
I love the ingredients in this food, the fact it is from New Zealand (which has some of the worlds most strict dog food policies), and the fact that the protein sources are free-range or cage free and grass fed and finished. I have six dogs and some with health issues that are all controlled by diet. My one dog has epilepsy that is triggered by turkey and grains and he has not had a seizure since on this food. Another one of my dogs has liver issues and luxating patella (knee caps slides out of place) so he has to be on a very specific diet for his liver and the green mussels are excellent for his joints. A third one of my dogs is 9 years old and creaky so the mussels also help her. These two dogs also gets additional green mussel supplement by primal and no more creaking or knee cap popping out. All my dogs love it as well. It does come partially crumbled but I am ok with this since I weigh all my dogs food out and mix with water.
It’s so disappointed when I opened the bag, because this brand is top rated and expensive, I trust their food like always, this is the first time to buy their air dried food, it’s crushed like the food topper, but it should not be like this.
Great as a topper. My dogs love it even the ones that are very finicky.
High quality dog food - my dog loves it and his allergies are gone! I switched because of the ingredients and I've noticed a difference. I highly recommend!
Dog's love it and ask for more! Bowls are licked clean. Easy to work with dry or when water added. Take advantage when it does go on sale.
This is a hit or miss item in terms of its condition. Most of the treats is crumbled up. Not in it’s hard pellet shape.
Very disappointed. From pic on bag, expected food to actually be a pellet or at least have some form.. Definitely mostly powder. Very expensive powder and would have to be mixed with something else to use only as a topper. Wouldn't consider a complete dog food at all.
I'm not sure if it's the product itself or the handling in transit but the freeze dried pellets aren't pellets. They're powder. Dog really didn't care for in that form but still eats it ... after she eats everything else.
We were having a hard time getting our girls to eat, we tried a small bag of this and they loved it. No problems since and we feel good about giving it to them because of the wholesome ingredients!
