Seems to help (a lot) with skin issues!
I have a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel who’s had skin issues for a number of years (and has been in a cone for much of that time, because she’ll bite herself until she bleeds otherwise.) She’s now getting up in age, (11), and it is a BIG goal of mine to get her out of that cone (though I think she no longer considers it “the cone of shame,” but rather an extension of her ears at this point)! We have tried numerous shampoos and conditioners, allergy testing and changing foods, keeping her away from certain trees and grasses, bathing less often, bathing more often, trips to the vet, more trips to the vet, injections, sprays, lotions, ointments, and much more. The thing that seems to help the most of all is lots of love (!), but a fairly recent change to this food seems to be helping a lot too, to my delight.For the last couple of years, she’s had wart-like bumps that were getting bigger and oozing often, forming yucky, hard, blackish crusts. After doing (yet more) research, I decided to cut out an allergy food from the vet that she loved and we were using in little bits to add flavor to her regular food, and to try sprinkling a little of this on her regular food (Taste of the Wild Dry Dog Food, Pacific Stream Canine Formula with Smoked Salmon), instead. She’s a picky eater, and just ignores the Taste of the Wild food until she starts eating grass (and gets sick), if it’s left plain. The Stella and Chewy’s dried dog food comes in nice little patties that break apart easily, for the most part, and are easily sprinkled on her kibble in her bowl, with one hand. Now, she gobbles her food down, and skips the grass altogether.With the Stella and Chewy’s chicken flavor, (minus the vet’s food), she improved a little. With the Duck Duck Goose flavor, she improved a lot! Her bumps got smaller and lost their crust and ooze, and yeast infections got better both in her ears and on the skin. She’s much less itchy and seems happier over all. — At first, not realizing the flavor had anything to do with our progress, I went back to the chicken. Now, I am convinced that for my sensitive dog, DUCK DUCK GOOSE is THE WAY TO GO. (Besides that… who can resist the name? =]…)My groomer recommended this, and the idea is to work up to serving it alone. It’s a little spendy for that, but if she keeps getting better I may well try. If you do add this to your dog’s regular food BE SURE to reduce the amount you usually give her. This is a concentrated food, and my pup gained weight very fast at first, before I cut down her portion of kibble.My sympathies and best wishes to all of you out there who are suffering along with your pups! I hope this helps!

ALMOST as tasty as a treat
These patties have been a GAME CHANGER for my labradoodle’s breakfast. She is a very picky eater so we have tired a lot of various brands and flavors.The quality of these patties is immediately noticeable compared to others we have tried. They’re made with real lamb, and you can tell just by looking at them that they’re a step above. They stay in tact and we break them up and hide them in her toys to keep her interested. We have used them with warm water also but our pup loves to push them around with her snout and then eat them broken into quarters.We have tried all the flavors but lately the lamb has been a big hit. Chicken and beef are also in the rotation for breakfast. They are also great if she is not in the mood for other food and we don’t want to fill her full of traces. (she is super picky eating some stuff)I appreciate the quality of the patient and the Stella & Chewy brand is well respected in the industry. We are big advocates of the quality ingredients and are health conscious ourselves. It is important for us our dog stays healthy and has a well rounded diet. They are a bit pricier than others but I think you pay for what you get.Overall they are high-quality, super convenient, slightly more expensive, and most importantly my DOG LOVES them! If it means she eats well and is healthy then it’s worth it for us. I recommend at least trying the small bag if you’re unsure about the flavor. (also try Chicken and Beef)

Even finicky or sick dogs seem to love the Dandy Lamb patties.
Too expensive for long-term use, but I have used the Stella and Chewy patties with three dogs and they loved their Dandy Lamb. Examples:Dog #1. My Airedale terrier, almost 12 years old, was coming to the end of a life marred by severe inflammatory bowel disease. It was hard to get her to eat, even with appetite boosters. But she would eat the Dandy Lamb patties.Dog #2. I babysat for a young Havanese when his owner was dealing with her daughter’s hospitalization. I noticed that he was vomiting frequently, on the chicken -based food his owner was using. I asked her if I could change his food, as I suspected a chicken senstivity — it seems to be more common than many people realize. The dog loved the Dandy Lamb, and the vomiting stopped. I suggested that the owner switch her dog to a lamb-based food, or even to another protein, like salmon.Dog #3, a miniature poodle, was just past puppyhood when I cared for her last time. A frequent visitor, she was healthy and showing no signs of homesickness. But she refused to eat the kibble her owner sent, even when I tried to hand feed her. No dog gets sick on my watch, so I quickly ordered Dandy Lamb. She became a happy, eager eater. I advised her owner to mix it in with her usual food to transition her back to it.All in all, I find lamb-based foods more digestible and well-tolerated for most dogs, but some dogs seem to find other lamb foods, like Canidae, too bland. The Stella and Chewy Dandy Lamb products seem to have a good taste, yet do not irritate sensitive tummies. Unless you thoroughly soak the patties in water before serving them, make sure that your dog drinks more water, because some dogs become a bit constipated otherwise. And remember that lamb will change the color of your dog’s stools, often to a bit yellowish, so don’t be alarmed.

My dog LOVES this food. He gets so excited for dinner time. Very good ingredients. With the organic fruits and vegetables I’m pretty sure my dog eats better than I do. I break the patties up and add water. It’s expensive but it’s not cost prohibitive for my small 10 lb dog because he doesn’t eat very much. He still has free range access to kibble and he gets one daily special meal with 2 patties at dinner time. I’m pretty sure my dog would be devastated if I stopped buying it for him.

The only thing I didn’t like was the price but the dog food has suited my dog with a sensitive stomach better than anything else. I have tried many types including the Farmer’s Dog which is real food and this is the best by far.

My dog used to love and go nuts whenever her meal time. She has several allergies and is currently on a food trial. She did great with this rabbit protein. She scratching reduced by more than 50% after 3 weeks.However, this new packet that I received smells totally different from previous batch!! My dog refused to eat!!

My dogs loved these! You can give them as they are or by adding water, mine preferred them ‘as is’ as they always have plenty of fresh drinking water available.Highly nutritious and a complete diet. Great product!
