I came across this product while looking at the Sojos brand of freeze dry dog food and figured I'd try this one first since it's cheaper and would probably be better for weight loss and maintenance.
One thing I always check is the ingredients and the nutrition panel when comparing different brands and flavors. With this particular food, I noticed that the ingredients on the list were fantastic with all of them free of nasty, harmful GMOs, and many of them being organic which is what I feed the human members of my family. Also worth mentioning, the ingredients are also human grade which is very reassuring so you know it's higher quality and doesn't contain questionable chemicals or ingredients like euthanized shelter animals (crude protein in many cheap-o brands of dog food, seriously. Look it up, it's a real and tragic thing folks).
On to the nutrition; If you have a puppy or active dog, this is probably not the best formula, and this company has many to choose from. I would say it's best suited for the less active mature/senior dogs like mine. That said, since they have been eating this food, they've actually had more energy and want to play much more than they used to!
The fat content in this particular food is very low in comparison to most other dog foods, the protein content is mostly from the beef and comes in at a moderate, but healthy percentage for omnivores (which I'm sure you know that dogs are omnis and not carnivores such as cats). Dogs absolutely need protein, however, too much protein can burden the liver. This formula also includes a nice panel of vitamins and minerals added in addition to the naturally occurring nutrients from the food's wholesome ingredients.
Out of the bag, it's a super green powdery texture with small pieces of what appears to be fruit, oats and veggies. I have to say the first time I measured it out and examined it, I was concerned, especially when I added the hot water. However, once reconstituted and cooled, the product has a lovely thick texture and smell, which is easy for my dogs to eat and digest.
For the preparation; Super easy! I just use a large Pyrex jug, fill it will purified water, microwave for a couple minutes then add in the correct amount of measured dry food from the package (which is a plastic resealable bag in a snug cardboard box). I let the food sit to fully absorb the liquid and to cool down, then feed to my anxiously waiting fur babies who are ready to gobble every last drop!!
Tip; I personally like to add in some organic Turmeric into the hot water and create a lovely tea base full of antioxidants before adding in the dry mix to add more health promoting benefits. Using hot water creates a much better texture/reconstitution than if you were to add cold or cool water.
The best part besides the fact my dogs love the taste and don't waste, feeding time is easy, much more controlled since I am using this to help my dogs achieve a healthier weight, and this seems to last a long time. And, since the box is smaller, it is easier to store than a large bag of dry kibble, or many, many cans of moist dog food.
So far the improvements I have seen in all three dogs has been: more energy, weight control/management, better health as per vet checkup since the last. They overall seem to be happier and, as long as this product stays on Amazons subscribe and save program which makes it more cost effective, I'll continue to purchase because the quality I get from this is far better that's what seems to be out there, as for right now.
Hope this helps!
What it's like: Dehydrated powder food with recognizable bits of cranberry, oats, and carrots. Since it's dehydrated, a 4 lb. box is the same as a 16 lb. bag of reg. dog food. I have a Yorkie/Maltese mix dog who weighs 6lbs. and she doesn't quite eat a whole box per month so every couple months, we will just skip a delivery. Every two months wouldn't be enough and every month is just a bit too often for her size if that helps anyone. You figure out what amount to feed your dog based on weight and activity level. She is supposed to get 1/4-1/2 cup OF DRY PER DAY. I don't want her to be hungry, so I went with the 1/2 cup amt. So, twice per day I mix 1/4 cup dry with hot water ( I just eyeball it but it's about 1/3 to 1/2 cup water) It's not an exact science. She eats it however I make it. It starts out being runny and watery, but after about 3 min it thickens up to an oatmeal-like consistency and BAM! IT'S GONE! She inhales it. The only thing that isn't great about this food is that the "free feed" method of feeding your dog will no longer be possible. This is best eaten freshly mixed. I was worried that I would forget to feed her, but she won't let me! LOL She goes into the kitchen and knocks her bowl and then peeks around the corner and looks to make sure I got the message. I am happy that she seems to be healthy and not scratching and she thinks I am feeding her a special treat.
***UPDATE*** we are still very happy with her health after switching to the VERVE, but after we tried another low fat recipe from The Honest Kitchen called ZEAL, she doesn't like this recipe as much. SHE LOVES THE ZEAL. It is fishy and I think it stinks, but SHE LOVES IT EVEN MORE THAN THE VERVE.
The quality and freshness spot on, Just the flavor . It could be the oats I’m not sure, It would be great if they had trial bags for this particular food…. So you can see if they like it or not before purchasing a box. Don’t let this review determine weather your dog will like it or not. It just didn’t do it for my picky eaters
