Sad to see, and I expect the result of growing competition with air-dried or kibble/dried dog foods in general.

Hi Jenny, I’ve fed the rolls to my pets, so that should give you a good answer! My view of a dog is they’re a facultative carnivore so need a diet mostly of animal/whole-prey. The Balanced Life rolls are a mix of meats and grains, but adding them alongside a mixed variety of foods is a good thing, especially adding them to a mostly kibble diet. Muscle meat is certainly good, but as a product the vitamins and minerals otherwise sourced from organ meats and bones are included as “vitamins” and “minerals” in the roll. Some brands like Big Dog include organ meats and ground bone in the mix.

I don’t use this food, I did get the sample pack but it was very weird when water was added and the dogs ate it dry for a few days and than never again.

Maybe try something along the lines of FrontierPets or K9 Natural for a better water soaking up product.

Essentially freeze dried is what you want to look for, this to me was very grassy and not what I see a dog eating, mixed with raw meat perhaps but not on it’s own.

All these products can get soggy from too much water though, I never followed the instructions for how much water should be used, I used a better measurement my eyes. If it looks like too much it is.

hi, is the food soggy when u serve it? just started using lamb and the soggy smelly nature of it is offputting. also have a fussy maltese shih tzu who tries to avoid it
