MY Charlie’s had the Filet Mignon variety a few times & loves it. Hasn’t had any stomach issues w/it either.

I can’t lie so when my sister watched my Dog for a few days when I was in Detroit she tried saving some of the money I gave her for watching him for herself.
So she bought a few cans of this crap. The Filet Mignon flavor.
He loved it. I know cause she sent a partial can back with him when I got back. He Ate it ALL & never got any type of Diarrhea. Shame it’s only 2 stars.

Absolutely correctomondo Doris. Majority of Vets (And I’ve discussed this many times) have been subjected to the main stream commercial dog food corporations’ marketing gurus lecturing BS at universities, when Vets’ elective courses on animal nutrition have been undergone.

I can’t cook well for myself let alone my dogs. That’s why I choose to alternate between grain free kibble and commercially made raw food such as BARF. BARF is the best there is, and I doubt anyone can put together a home made recipe to match it.

“And when in doubt consult a veterinarian for help.”

I know this advise is meant to be helpful, but I would not count on a vet being savy about pet foods. As a matter of fact, most vets are very ignorant about commercial pet foods. Just look at what many promote in their business–I cringe.

I’ve been cooking for my dogs and cats for many years. I am currently cooking for seven dogs and five cats. Is it work? Yes, of course. But I’ve suffered, in the past, from the results of feeding commercial foods.

Cooking for animals is not at all like cooking for humans. I cook roasters full and I freeze it. Just remember, quality is what is important, not a lot of variety. If you cook, you need to add calcium and other trace minerals. You can supplement with vitamins/minerals for pets.

If it’s at the dollar store, it’s probably made in China.
