Naturally Delish is made with simple, wholesome ingredients like tender cuts of real meat and farm picked vegetables.  So when you feed your best friend Naturally Delish you can do so knowing that the natural and health recipe:

• Is made with simple, wholesome natural ingredients plus essential vitamins and minerals
• Has no corn, no wheat, no soy
• Has no meat by-products or fillers
• Has no artificial flavors, colors or preservatives

Rachael Ray Nutrish Naturally Delish comes in four hearty and healthy flavors, including a signature flavor – Chicken Muttballs with Pasta.  (The pasta in Chicken Muttballs contains semolina wheat flour.)

I was able to find Naturally Delish at my local Walmart and Target – now if I could just get it at my local grocery store I would be very happy!

I was personally really impressed that when I opened the container of the wet dog food I could see chunks of all the different ingredients and that is a big plus because we have gone through a lot of different type of wet dog foods in this house but I was the most impressed with this food so far.  I LOVE the containers that the food comes in because I only use wet food as a topper so I am able to put the lid on the container and put it back in the fridge till the next feeding instead of having to look around for one of the toppers we have for canned food and not all of them fit all cans.

I know that some of my followers have specific dietary needs and can’t feed this food but if your dog doesn’t have any of these restrictions I personally ask you to pick up a container of this wet food and try it, you will not be sorry!

Merrick Pet Food Revolution has started,  Merrick declared a food revolution with a new line of dog food recipes that take pet food to an entirely new level.  Merrick is well known at the Hound Girl homestead because of the canned food so I was so excited to get this package because it gave us a chance to try the dry food including the classic recipes along with the new grain free line.  Haylie eats dry food with canned food mixed in as a topper twice a day.  I will be the first dog owner to admit how picky my dog is, it can be very frustrating when she gets tired of her canned food flavor and will go on strike.  This was the #1 reason we started purchasing Merrick canned food is because it has the largest variety of canned dog food I have ever seen.  There are 14 varieties of canned dog food in their existing line but their new line which is part of the Merrick pet food revolution includes 6 varieties of canned that that are grain free!  That is 20 different flavors I now can offer Haylie as canned food, looks like my local Petco better watch out I’m coming to stock up on Merrick canned dog food!

Merrick pet food revolution was created by listening to what pet owners wanted and studying the latest nutrition research along with conducting reviews of farmers and suppliers to reinvent their formulas.  Merrick pet care came up with a five star promise.

1.  Local growers: Ingredients from local farmers to ensure freshness and safety.  This is so important today with all the issues with ingredients coming from China.

2.  Real whole foods: No artificial additives, sweeteners, colorings or preservatives.  We use to have to watch this so close with Fred and his epilepsy because preservatives could cause a seizure, with Haylie its important to make sure the ingredients will not cause her to get hot spots due to her being allergic to some ingredient.  I want to know what is in my dogs food and understand all ingredients.

3.  Balanced nutrition:  the balance of proteins, veggies, whole grains and fruit forms a superior nutritional experience for your pet family member.  The line also includes grain-free varieties.  We loved the original classic recipe and now I am so excited to be able to mix in grain free with our rotation.

4.  Health you can see:  Industry leading levels of protein, healthy fats, glucosamine and chondroitin.  This is so important with Haylie hip dysplasia, I always try to find a food that has vitamins that will be a great supplement for her hips.

5.  Cooked in Merrick’s own kitchens:  Made with care in small batches.  I love that they are making this food in test kitchen and keeping a close eye on the formulas and constantly trying to come up with new recipes.   

 Some dry food flavors that are part of the classic line that sounded interesting were:  real lamb brown rice and apple recipe and real beef whole barley and carrot recipe.

Haylies favorite canned food in the classic recipe line:  brauts-n-tots and cowboy cookout.

I was excited to see that the new grain free line has a buffalo flavored dry food, she loves buffalo by far as her favorite protein.

The grain free canned food includes proteins from beef, tripe, chicken, pork, duck, and buffalo.  Yes tripe!!! she loves tripe so I can’t wait to try that out on her.

Don’t take my word for it, head over to your local petco or your food supplier and try their dog food and become part of the Merrick pet food revolution too!

Let me introduce you to LM Farms Nutrition Boosters

Just like we take our multi – vitamina before we leave the house for the start of our day, the same should go for our dogs.  Pet food may not deliver all the essential nutrients that our pets need.  LM Farms Nutrition Booster’s cold press maintains the proper balance of natural nutrition essentials like omega fatty acids and probiotics.

I am all about EASY and these packs do just that, and who isn’t looking for something that can make the morning hussle and bussle a little easier.  These are single serve packets, there is no measuring and no fighting with your pet to ensure they swallow a vitamin.  This is a powder that is just sprinkled over their food.  Haylie is use to things on her food so she took one sniff and put her head down and enjoyed her meal.  This is a great product for her because it’s the combo vitamin I have been looking for, something for the hips and her coat.

  I have shopped foryears for my dogs food at Petco, what drew me there was the wonderful Petco Pals program. If you haven’t stepped intoyour local Petco now is a great time for Back to school, so stop on in and see all the great ideas they have to fit your pets nutriational ne!

******GIVEAWAY CLOSED – Winner is Chan!*********

Nature’s Logic pet foods are unique. The company has created the first and only full-line of dry kibble, canned, and raw frozen pet food in the world with no chemically-synthesized vitamins or minerals. All nutrients in Nature’s Logic formulas are derived from whole foods and 100% natural ingredients. “Our foods are not developed to capitalize upon the latest market trend, or to grab more shelf space with as many variations as possible, or to increase profit margins,” says founder Scott Freeman. “Instead, we try to closely match the nutritional make-up of the prey dogs and cats would naturally eat in the wild.” Nature’s Logic foods are formulated to put the health and safety of pets first:

• No Synthetic Vitamins or Minerals                         • High-quality Animal Protein

• High-Protein/Low Carbohydrate                            • Carnivore-appropriate Starch, Millet

 I was so lucky to have been able to try Nature’s Logic canned food because we were trying anything and everything to get Haylie to eat after Fred passed away and this was the next best thing to homemade dog food. Haylie chose to show her grieving by not eating which is completely understandable but on top of her being a picky eater she was turning her nose up at everything. I didnt’t have the time recently to make her homemade dog food if she wasn’t going to eat it. The normal foods that we had in rotation were not tempting Haylie to even come close to the food bowl. It was funny, I opened the canned food of sardine flavor,  lo and behold she was at my side with her nose up on the counter. As I have said before Haylie loves fish food but I just can’t take the smell sometimes but I was desperate to get her to eat so I figured we would start with sardine flavor!

Choosing the best dog food can be hard and we had tried several off the top 10 list already.  My grief stricken picky eater of a lab was knocking her bowl around in her raised dog feeder because she had inhaled her canned food and couldn’t stop licking the bowl, she never did this with homemade dog food. My dog finally ate and not only ate but loved it, the next day we tried the beef and then the venison a day later. We went through the dog food we were sent and I went right out and bought her a case knowing this was the best dog food we had tried lately because it got her to eat. She is still eating it to this day mixed with her homemade dog food.

 I wish I could convey to Nature’s Logic how much she loves this food, I wish I could let them know how much relief their food gave me knowing that I can give her such good quality food that is exactly like homemade dog food to prevent her hunger strike. This canned food actually helped all of us to move forward, once Haylie started eating again on a regular basis everything else started to fall in place as we worked through our grief from the sudden passing of Fred as long as we keep putting some of this canned food in her bowl.  After doing alot of research on this food I can see how it ranks high on the list for the best dog food
