Stella & Chewy's Freeze Dried Raw Dinner Patties – Grain Free Dog Food, Protein Rich Chicken Recipe – 5.5 oz Bag

Great as a kibble topper! Received a full refund on partially used bag could not be used after our mini schnauzer passed.

I have a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel who's had skin issues for a number of years (and has been in a cone for much of that time, because she'll bite herself until she bleeds otherwise.) She's now getting up in age, (11), and it is a BIG goal of mine to get her out of that cone (though I think she no longer considers it "the cone of shame," but rather an extension of her ears at this point)! We have tried numerous shampoos and conditioners, allergy testing and changing foods, keeping her away from certain trees and grasses, bathing less often, bathing more often, trips to the vet, more trips to the vet, injections, sprays, lotions, ointments, and much more. The thing that seems to help the most of all is lots of love (!), but a fairly recent change to this food seems to be helping a lot too, to my delight. For the last couple of years, she's had wart-like bumps that were getting bigger and oozing often, forming yucky, hard, blackish crusts. After doing (yet more) research, I decided to cut out an allergy food from the vet that she loved and we were using in little bits to add flavor to her regular food, and to try sprinkling a little of this on her regular food (Taste of the Wild Dry Dog Food, Pacific Stream Canine Formula with Smoked Salmon), instead. She's a picky eater, and just ignores the Taste of the Wild food until she starts eating grass (and gets sick), if it's left plain. The Stella and Chewy's dried dog food comes in nice little patties that break apart easily, for the most part, and are easily sprinkled on her kibble in her bowl, with one hand. Now, she gobbles her food down, and skips the grass altogether. With the Stella and Chewy's chicken flavor, (minus the vet's food), she improved a little. With the Duck Duck Goose flavor, she improved a lot! Her bumps got smaller and lost their crust and ooze, and yeast infections got better both in her ears and on the skin. She's much less itchy and seems happier over all. -- At first, not realizing the flavor had anything to do with our progress, I went back to the chicken. Now, I am convinced that for my sensitive dog, DUCK DUCK GOOSE is THE WAY TO GO. (Besides that... who can resist the name? =]...) My groomer recommended this, and the idea is to work up to serving it alone. It's a little spendy for that, but if she keeps getting better I may well try. If you do add this to your dog's regular food BE SURE to reduce the amount you usually give her. This is a concentrated food, and my pup gained weight very fast at first, before I cut down her portion of kibble. My sympathies and best wishes to all of you out there who are suffering along with your pups! I hope this helps!

I really appreciated being able to feed my dog raw without taking my entire freezer space. It's obviously not as healthy as cooking your dog's food yourself, or at least feed fresh store-bough food, but it certainly is better than kibble. I highly recommend to read "the forever dog" by Dr. Karen Becker to learn more about dog nutrition.
