This looked so healthy, but I don't think my dogs like veggies that much and they did not like the smell of it. Too bad, it was easy to make SF

All 4 of our dogs loved all the samples of the Honest Kitchen raw dog food. It's definately a winner in our household.

My Australian Shepherd Rowdy, whose intestinal issues finally cleared after a year of home-cooking, is thriving on Honest Kitchen's foods. He eats Thrive, Verve, and Force. They are also helping his allergies.
