"Finally all four dogs are eating their own food all at once and maintaining a healthy weight! They love this new food and we no longer have to stand over them to make sure they don't over or under eat. The convenience of portion size and home delivery is awesome! The Hearty Chicken Stew looks mouth watering and unlike before, all four dogs come when they're called for dinner. Meals have become so simple and easy and they all love the taste! Thank-you for keeping our dogs healthy and us happy!"

"My 12 year old Lab just loves the chicken stew and is doing great. My only complaint is that the large size I used to buy is not available, and the medium size is not as good a value."

"It is a shame that the chicken stew does not agree
with my dog; he has food allergies and the now
discontinued salmon stew was "the one". It seems
the sweet potato was much better than the pumpkin.
If I had a different dog I would use the chicken stew without hesitation."

"I was a bit dismayed to see that the Hearty Chicken Stew was made in Thailand but the Whole Dog Journal gave it a thumbs up so I decided to use it. The ingredients were so good and healthy. I put it on top of their kibble and both my dogs love it. I bought the small pouches which are 85g. When I read the directions, it said to feed them 100g. It would have been a lot easier if the small pouches were 100g."

"Both of my dogs love this food. I feed them hard kibble in the am and this stew in the pm. First they slurp up all of the broth and then they finish it down to the last little pea."

"To say that my dog has food sensitivity issues is an understatement. I spent hundreds of dollars on special foods, supplements, vet bills and medicines and he still itched, smelled badly, threw up and suffered from chronic diarrhea, Now he and I can sleep through the night without his incessant scratching, and the horrible odor has disappeared. His formally dull coat with its bald spots and sores are gone as well.
And best of all he no longer looks to be in pain from the chronic pancreatic problems that plagued him for the last year.
Thank you so much for the Smartpak chicken soup for dogs and the senior dry food they have made my dog so much healthier and happier. (I also purchaced this for my sister's very old dog. She was a lifetime picky eater who scarfs these two foods up and she has gained weight -muscle mass - so she is better able to get around),
For those concerned about the cost I am saving at least one hundred dollars a month on vet bills etc so I consider this to be "free", or at least a substantial cost savings"

"My dog is very picky. She's 12 years old and I have had the privilege of her company since she was 6 months old. In that time I have been through countless dog foods trying to find something she would eat consistently (more than 1 bag or 2 weeks) and that was good for her. This product fits that bill!! We're on our second month and she's still looking for this on top of her dry food and will eat most every day, twice a day. Before she'd go several days without eating if she didn't like what was in her dish. Now she guards her dish from the kitten even when it's empty!
I'm having it shipped more often then the 28 day supply because she does eat it twice a day most of the time and we just can't run out :) Truly love this product!

"Today is the first time ALL 3 DOGS polished their bowls clean! I am absolutely amazed at how well received this food was! This is the first time I have ever found 1 product all 3 loved. I usually have 3 different flavors and brands being served. This is a great product at a great price and it is obviously good quality food which you can tell just looking at the product!"

"I buy this for both my old husky mix who has severe food allergies and chronic pancreatitis, and for my sister's 15 year schnauzer mix who is a lifelong picky eater - a condition which got worse as she got older. Both dogs are thriving; my dog's skin condition has improved, he no longer has diarrhea and no longer acts as if his stomach hurts constantly. More importantly he wants to play!. SmartPak thank you."

"My dog has had digestive issues for quite a while. They have finally gotten under control, but have made her a SUPER picky eater, coupled with strict guidelines from my vet. I got some samples of the chicken stew (thanks so much for the samples smartpak!!) and she inhaled them! I was shocked! I gave her one, and she let me know she wanted more. So I gave her a 2nd, and then the 3rd and last (she is a 50lb dog, the samples were the small size). She then ran around the house, barking and playing, and kept coming back to her bowl, looking for more and licking the bowl, I guess in case she missed a piece. You have a new customer!!!"

"This food looks like people food, and doesn't have the awful smell associated with most soft dog food. My 3 pugs love it, and actually seem energized after eating it. I split 1 pouch between my 3 pugs as an addition to their dry food about once a week, and I am a hero for a week!"

"Dogs loved the product; however I thought it was made in the USA - when box arrived is said "PRODUCT OF THAILAND". Will not be buying this again...Thailand does not have the same food standards as the U.S."

"My Corgi absolutely loves the stew. We eat a lot of chicken stir fries at my house, so to my dog, he thinks he's getting people food when he eats it. He's been on it for almost three months now, and he still devours every bite, and licks the bowl afterwards."
