My dogs love it!
My dogs love this! I have tried other freeze-dried foods that they didn’t like, and I was surprised at how much they liked this! The ingredients are human-grade, and the quality is good. It is very easy to reconstitute with hot tap water. The instructions aren’t very clear about the ideal food-to-water ratio, but I usually add a little more water than food and let it sit to thicken. Don’t let the size of the box fool you. The 10-pound box makes about 40 pounds of food, which, cost-wise, makes this a premium dog food. I typically feed raw, but this is an excellent substitution for those who want to optimize their dogs’ nutrition.

Dogs love it!
Our dogs love this stuff! We bought it to mix in with medication for one of our dogs. After crushing the pill, we add it to the powder (about 1/4 of the package), add water, put it on bread or over their food and they eat it all up. Our other dog was going crazy over the smell so we make a separate mixture for him to enjoy. Truly, this is the only product we’ve found that masks the meds for our dogs and they still love it after eating it every single day for quite some time. We love it so much we use it as a topper on their food and it is a treat for them. It’s like convincing them to eat their greens without any pushback. Great product, good ingredients, and your dog will love you for it!

Dogs go nuts for this
Purchased as a supplement to regular diet as it’s too expensive for me to feed alone. The packaging has instructions on how to use along with regular kibble which is appreciated. Smells fresh and suspiciously delicious to me, which I feel speaks volumes about the higher quality of ingredients used. My dogs loved it as a topper as well as spread into enrichment toys. Texture looks absolutely gross once mixed but my dog’s love it. Easy to mix and use. Since it is dry powder that gets rehydrated, I feel that this really can get stretched far if used in supplement to regular diet.

Great dog food!
I have 3 chihuahuas and have tried so many dif foods for them. 2 of them gt bored with the same flavor all the time and 1 thts not picky is 12yrs old so i wanted one tht was good quality, lots of dif flavors, easy to eat (small dogs=small teefs and lots of teefs taken by dentist), and affordable. This brand checks all the boxes. We also use Stella&Chewy and Ziwi(this ones expensive!) The variety has been a game changer. I have had to tweek amounts cuz its easy to feed thm too much. I call it their doggie oatmeal cuz basically it is. We also get the harder crunchy food but i usually smash it up some for them.*One problem i did encounter is my oldest guy Gary ended up with extreme constipation cuz this food does have a higher carb count. It was not pleasant. An enima was performed cuz xrays just showed he was extremely backed up. Again I have small 7&8lb dogs. Anyways it was a rough few days. After tht I used more water with the mix and added a bit of freeze dried beef or chkn frm Stew&Chew also would alternate between this doggie oatmeal and Stew&Chew digestive food. Now we are good. Lessons were learned. Also another game changer was adding a green lipid mussel supplement mixed in once a day. Not only is everything moving out on time but he has so much more energy than he ever has. This lil 12yr old chihuahua named Gary gets major zoomies. He runs out of gas quick but he used to get pulled muscles or hip pains if he played too muchâ¦not anymore. Also another thing tht changed is his sinuses. He would gt sinus infections maybe 2-3 times a yr and now none since the shift.My other 2 dogs are very young but one guy Carl is part Italian Greyhound so he has long skinny legs and both is knees pop out every day. His elbows pop like crazy too. Hes a rescue n whn we got him 2yrs ago he had no hair on his chest and got rashes on his nose all the time n extremely skinny. Hes still skinny but now he has chest hair its very thin but thts the iggy in him. His knees ache less. And he gets very zoomy too. Our baby Birdie is just 2 but shes a chipom so I know i have to watch her diet cuz heart issues n diabetes run in her dna.Long review with extra stuff thrown in but I wanted to explain why we love this brand. (Along with others) Trying to find the right food has been difficult. Vets always recommend Hills or Royal Canine n they arent terrible but the nutrition in those blows my mind cuz it has corn n other fillers. Our dogs would gt so bored with those they would rather eat the grass they peed or starve than eat anymore of tht kibble.So in Conclusionâ¦.this brand is amazing! Affordable for our small 3 chihuahuas and I think its gonna help them live long healthy n happy lives!

Great healthy food but needs more protein in it.
I have bought this food for about 2 years for my dogs. However, recently I stopped buying as there is not much meat in them. My dogs were always coming to me hungry and craving more protein. Itâs a great company, and itâs a healthy alternative to regular dog food, but you may need to supplement with more meat.

Doggies love it!
I use this as a food topper to add some added moisture and flavor to kibble. My doggies love the taste. As soon as I scoop out to prepare they are lingering around waiting for some! Easy to prepare, and dogs seemed to be more energetic and have good poops. I make a small batch every 3days for my girls so they always have fresh food.

Cannot review individual flavors
The chicken seemed somewhat bland with a mild bullion smell but my dog’s seemed to like it. Neither of my dogs liked the beef flavor. It has a bland smell but looks no different than the other flavors. One of my dogs eats everything and this is the first food she leaves a bit behind. My other dog won’t even touch the beef. They both loved the turkey flavor and that one smells really good. I purchased a 2lb box of each flavor as a trial (expensive trial). Next order will be a larger box of the turkey since that seems to be their favorite. I was previously cooking their meals but needed something for camping and meals on the road that doesn’t need refrigeration and is easy to store. This food is light weight and mixes up easily.

My dog loves Honest Kitchen much better thank Grandma Lucy’s. I went back and forth between the two products for about a year .. with my old Whippet that passed. My new boy another Whippet, came to us as a young puppy.. he is now a year old and gets an extremely high quality dry food as well as Honest Kitchen, I fed him the remainder of what I had left in the bag of Grandma Lucy’s, he would leave it in his dish unless I mixed a lot of people food with it.. I feel that they (dogs) don’t get enough water with the dry diet. With Honest Kitchen, I add some of what we have for dinner and mix it in, add the required amount of water and serve..he loves it. .I will sometimes pop it in the microwave to heat it up as well. He is one spoiled puppy. As far as price, I bought it here for 20 dollars less than at my pet food store.. It arrived the next day.. I was totally amazed.. great product… “it’s delicious” signed Tommy the Whippet.

My 13 year-old Poodle loves this and doesn’t need encouragement to eat this. She has always loved kibbles but she could not digest them well. No issues in regugitation after she started on this.

Human grade, so convenient for people wanting the best for their dog, a raw diet that doesn’t have to thaw. Personally, I don’t eat meat very often. I avoid the blood and mess and the garbage can that smell like rotten meat. This product has every bit of the goodness of a raw meat diet just none of the yuk. I weigh out the amount of dehydrated goodness (43.5 chickens in the 10 lb box plus oats, veggies and other good things. Just add enough water to make it the consistency your dog likes. Poops are small and firm. The other great thing is my dog isn’t bugging me for more food. She doing great., full of energy, vitality,. She is almost 7 and people think she’s a puppy. I know it’s because I feed her the best and this product fits the bill
