Is there a reason why this is called “specialized”? Or does that refer to the fact it’s only for small breeds?

He loves it! Soon as it was in his bowl you haf to keep moving him so you put some more in cause he eating like there was no tommrow. He haf been same brand chicken puppy. He would eat it but wasn't really into it. All you got do now is puck bag up and he dancing wanting it. His bowl cant be empty as he is feeding but bowl empty will drive you nuts till theres more food. Was not like that with chicken.. he acts so happy and always bouncing. Thus is best food.evrn oreo-cat eats cat food one and both they go potty there's no bad smell. Told a friend sje bought for her cat, she won't buy nothing else. Sd.no bad smell. Chewy keep this in stock. Custermore for life with the company

Well, my intentions were good. It took a while for my dog to even eat the Beef flavored. He much preferred the Chicken flavored, so I have switched back. He is eating the Beef, just not with the same enthusiasm as he does the Chicken.

The last few bags I received seem to have disintegrated pieces; deformed pieces n crumbles. I threw out yhe last bag because I found some kind of worm in it. Disappointed in quality control. Paying extra for good food for our pets. I've now switched brands.

Liked the taste - big time!

Sometimes our adoptee-Gidget can be too ‘selective’ in her meal preferences but not in this choice. We are pleased with this ProPlan & she is too. Obviously.

I’m very disappointed in this most recent order of this dog food. I’ve been feeding this brand to my dog for 2 years. He especially likes the shredded pieces of freeze-dried beef that are mixed in with the kibble. Prior bags have had a large percentage of the total bag that were the freeze-dried pieces. This bag has very, very few, and the ones that are there are tiny, almost crumbs. He’s barely touching this food. I’m very disappointed because I bought a large bag of it, so now I have a big bag of food he won’t eat.

Excellent Ingredients

Millie ate her meal and I'm not sure she even took a breath before she was finished.
