Serve Up Balanced Nutrition

Not for my dog
By Toni2016 on Sep 6, 2018 Top 1000 Contributor
I agree with my dog, this food wasn’t very appealing. She checked it out with the smell text and she just turns her head away. She wouldn’t even try it from my finger.

My little pups didn't like this food
By Maggie8925 on Jul 7, 2018
At first, my little dogs were excited to try this new food. Unfortunately, after the first meal, they refused to eat it. The color of the food was grayish brown and looked unappealing.

Contains no chicken products
By Libby on Jun 8, 2018
It was difficult to find a food with no chicken products. Fortunately, my Muffin loves this food (which I mix with dry food)

Sammy recommends it!
By Stacy on Feb 9, 2018
While I haven't tasted it myself, Sammy (my dog) certainly seems to enjoy this new flavor. My main reason for purchasing was the absence of chicken. My dog has a poultry allergy, and it so difficult to find food food that doesn't have chicken broth or chicken meal somewhere in the ingredients list, even in dinners that are primarily another meat.
