My dog loves it. –
I finally changed to this food from what I was using and my English Bulldog absolutely loves it, he was having stomach issues to where I had to make him chicken and rice all the time now I don’t have to. I’m glad my sister brought this brand to my attention, I tried other brands before this one FINALLY worked for him.
Fussy Dogs –
My two dogs are VERY fussy eaters. They always want some “goodie” added to their dry food. I have switched dog food hoping this food would be more appealing to them without adding treats to their food. We are in a “Tough Love” battle.
