Sojos Mix-A-Meal Original Recipe Pre-Mix Dehydrated Dog Food

I've waited two months, to do this review, as I wanted to see how my dog's did on it. First, they seemed to do fine, when I was mixing it with the way I would make their old food...with some rice. Took the rice out, and one of my dog's, who is a young, very healthy mini Aussie, would digest it, way before the next feeding. I kept upping the amount. He's 14 lbs. and I had him up to the 20 lb. amount, and he was still spitting up yellow foam, with an empty stomach, 10 hrs. later...I feed twice a day, 12 hrs. apart. Added rice back in, so I could drop the Sojos amount, to normal, but then instead of one spitting up yellow foam, two started spitting up white foam.

Took me a bit, but we figured out, that as we got to the bottom of the bag, even though, we were shaking it and turning it, there was more and more supplement powder. So they're getting too much and their stomachs aren't settling well with it that strong. The idea is great, but not sure we will be able to buy more of it or not, at this point. I may have to go back to making our own food and adding a supplement pill. Wished this had worked. Made making a homemade food so much easier. … more

This is loaded with grains eventho they say it is not, their really is not a single good thing in this for dogs, very disappointed as I have been buying the veggies and fruit mix from Sojos, I haven't even opened the bag. after such a long wait due to the shipping (and I totally understand and expected with covid 19) and to see that the ingredients are so disappointing.

Yes, this is an oatmeal based raw food. It’s mostly oatmeal until you add your own meat. Some people really don’t like that but I love that I can see exactly what my dog eats! We prep 4 meals worth at a time and let them set up in the refrigerator like overnight oats. My dog goes crazy for it and love that I can mix in different things each time!

I don't think kibble is the best we can do for dogs. But an unbalanced homemade diet is worse. With Sojos mix a meal, I am confident I am giving my dogs fresh wholesome food without the worry that I am missing something vital they may need. This is the most economical option of premix foods on the market today. My dogs love it and I love that I can give them fresh food with any variety protein! Thanks for a great product and I love that it comes in a 40 pound bag!

Sojos Has been around for a long time. My vet recommended it, said his German Shepherd’s lived to be 16 years old. You will not have to have your dogs teeth cleaned as often, and their bowel movements will be so much better and less smelly. Just add meat and you are complete.

I purchased the Sojos Mix-a-Meal to add some grains to the dehydrated raw patties my dog eats; he does better with grain in his diet. Unfortunately, he was not interested in this and ate the patties but left the mix.

My dogs ultimately ate this food when I mixed it with chicken, broth, AND some appetizer flakes. sadly the texture became rather unappealing to them. Although a great idea and i will slowly finish the bag, it will not be a daily additive for their meals.

I did not realize that this was uncooked oatmeal based mix. I did plan to add cooked meat for a homemade meal but when I called Sojos I was not confident that my dog would get all the nutrients she need. The person I spoke to was not a nutritionist and just gave a canned answer. I will probably just donate this but might just throw it out. I am not sure what to do with the bag.

A friend recommended this product. My puppy has had loose stools and I had tried other diets without seeing an improvement. I am pleased with the ease of preparation and my pup loves it. Currently transitioning into this diet and have already seen signs of improved appetite and digestion.

I tried this with chicken as the cook meat and neither one of my dogs would eat it. Jacqueline Ike
