This is a great food base for a homemade dog food diet. I just add meat and some fruit and or veggies. My two dogs love this food.

My dogs love this and its good just to even mix in with their dry food for a little extra.

My dog, who will eat the kitchen sink, would not touch this with a ten foot pole.

My Australian Shepherd Tillie eats Preference with her kibble. The combination has brought her to optimal health. We are so pleased with all the HK products.

I like it and the convenience, but my dogs aren't crazy about it.

They love this disgusting stuff. I will order more. You would think it's caviar and champagne.

I have noticed a considerable difference in the energy level of my 13 yr old basset hound since I switched him over to Preference. He acts more like a 6yr old now...I believe he is getting better absorption of nutrients due to the high quality of this vitamin-packed food. Another characteristic of it that's great is he LOVES the taste! We add different types of protein when we rehydrate the food, which gives him a lot of variety! This bag really goes a long way too. He has been eating one cup of Preference, mixed with one cup of protein a day for almost a month now, and we're not even through half the bag. A+++!!!
