My dog is NOT a picky eater, but she would not eat this food. The only way she would eat it was for me to add home-cooked chicken to it, but my doctor told me not to do that because it increases the protein too much. My dog won't eat the food without it, so I had to buy a different kind of food. Now I am stuck with this huge bag that is not cheap. Thankfully I bought it on sale, but I wish there was a smaller size to try.

I purchased this to feed my dog that had congestive heart failure. I started day one transitioning him to the new food with just a little addition to his old food. The second day....my dog passed away. I had no knowledge if he liked it or if it was ok with him at all. So, my review is baseless, but he did eat the first little bit I mixed with his other food just fine.

I checked the expiration date because the food had a weird/bad smell. Almost like bad broccoli. But it wasn't expired and I'd only opened it the day before. My dog wouldn't eat it though. Dumped out the bowl of this food and gave her the old food and she ate that one right away. Sucks that I bought the big bag. She used to eat it a couple years ago but I stopped because of the price.

My dog would not eat this food. First day I cut it open it smelled horrible . It smelled rotten or stale. She finally eat it after a couple days and threw it up ,of course on the couch. I would not recommend this brand of food for heart health.

My dog is a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel/Shih Tzu mix and started developing mitral valve disease at age 4. I started her on this diet right away to try to slow down progression. She just had her 6 month echocardiogram which is basically stable. She really loves this food and it certainly does not seem to be hurting, so I’m definitely going to continue feeding it.

From a few of the other reviews, I was just a tad skeptical about whether Layla would like the taste or not. Well, turns out "she does"!! Her Vet recommended the Purina Pro Plan "CardioCare", so I felt like she needed this food, that's why I ordered this. Just wish it was a little less expensive!!

This is a prescribed dog food and I was a little skeptical of continuing to purchase as the 1st ingredient is chicken which my vet, said he's highly allergic to. It Chewy assured to me, the other ingredients far outweigh the little flavor of chicken for his specific needs. Thank You. Patty

Our pup likes it!

Our pup likes this cardiac care dog food better than the expensive dog food we were feeding her prior to her heart murmur diagnosis.
