My dogs loved these. My only problem was the bag burst open in delivery from the weight of the dog food bag squashing it. Thankfully I noticed it in the bottom of the box and was able to salvage most of the treats. I would probably put them on a separate order so that doesn't keep happening. Otherwise my pups all enjoyed them.

I buy this for my cat

Same exact ingredients as the cat bag, just a bigger bag. My cat loves this food, especially rabbit so I save a bit of money by buying the bigger bag.
