| We've tried Weruva & Party Animal. Both are human grade, they LOVED it (did well on it too) & I like the companies. If you have a Whole Foods near you, they carry Party Animal, sometimes it goes on sale.

| Oops, Party Animal is not human grade, but they do use a lot of organic foods. We also tried the Cocolicious line, all grain free. You can also order directly from their website: Party Animal Gourmet Organic Pet Food Save On Free Shipping Now

Donating YT 30K Club Member | Mine loved the Weruva. But it was messy for them to eat and was too costly to feed 3 of them. I think to top of the kibble it would be great.

| My cousin tops her kibble with Rachel Ray's Nutrish Delish or something like that....she says the chicken pot pie and the beef stew looks good enough for humans to eat!! I have NO idea about how good this food is....I use only RC so I have no first hand suggestions about a wet food topper, but my cousin swears by this stuff and her dogs LOVE it! |

| Another vote for Weruva and Party Animal! I also have fed a lot of Earthborn, TikiDog, Natural Balance Stews, and Hill's Ideal Balance. I just recently got a few cases of Whole Earth Farms which the pups have been enjoying the past few days as well...this brand is more affordable than the other options (an important factor for me since I feed a lot of canned food) but still good quality in my opinion. |

| My silly girl thinks Party Animal is too mushy, she likes chunks and Merrick is what she likes mixed in. Thanksgiving Day Dinner and Grandmas Pot Pie. Sometimes I have to lure her in with a baby cheddar fish or sugar pop ( cereal), but once she starts eating she will eat. Try and get to know what TIME they like to eat so food ain't laying around for hours Zoey is terrible! Eats at 2 o clock than bedtime! Like 11. ! |

Any issues when's mixing it in or feeding it with loose stools or diarrhea? They didn't have a party animal at whole foods so I opted for a different organic brand until I can get a hold of this stuff and I topped it on the food and he's been having loose stools since then. did I just not mix it in slowly enough?? Or should i switch | |

| Hmmm...I've never had issues with loose stools or diarrhea from canned food with Toki and that's pretty much most of what she eats and I switch frequently. How much did you top Franklin's food with? Maybe he needs a smaller amount to start with or perhaps this food just doesn't agree with him if he's more sensitive to food changes. |
