My dogs LOVE this food! They can be a little picky sometimes, but dive right into their bowls with this. I feel good knowing it’s made with real ingredients that I can actually read and no weird fillers. Their coats look shinier, and they seem to have more energy since switching. It’s a little pricier, but totally worth it for happy, healthy dogs.

The packing is closable for freshness. When you open the bag you can smell the fresh chicken scent and brown rice. The texture is small bite size for a small dog. It has no extra chemicals it's healthy for your dog.

My Westies love this dog food. They have very sensitive stomachs but this brand and flavor (chicken & brown rice) does not upset their stomachs.

This food is also a good choice. I fed this to my dogs years ago and they all seemed to enjoy it. The only reason why I switched because the store we were purchasing this from continuously didn’t have the chicken and my dogs don’t do well on any other flavors. Highly recommend!
Great quality!
