Great topper!

For a large dog -90 lbs- Stella doesn’t really eat much so I have to put something really enticing in her kibbles. She loves this topper and since it falls between

Shipping process

UPS does not deliver to porch, instead they leave it on the ground in front of garage, which is not visible from the house. Would request not to use them for shipping
