Yeah, THK takes some getting used to & you need to play around w/the water to make it a certain consistency that they will like. It's great when it's cold out bc you add warm water to it. It is a plant based food, so if Lola likes her meat protein, it might not be too palatable for her...unless you add more meat. The Embark (turkey) & Zeal (fish) has more protein coming from meat. Yes, Zeal smells fishy, but my guys loved it, the smellier the better! So if you can get samples of that, maybe it's worth a try. If you have a specialty boutique or feed store that carries THK, some stores have the 1oz samples to try for free, just ask them.
One thing I didn't like, dehydrated fruits like bananas came in big chunks. I had to break it into smaller pcs. It (fruits) pretty much comes out the same going in! I don't feed them THK anymore, but when they get old & lose all their teeth, we might go back to it.
