Let customers speak for us
My German Shepard has allergies and it has been a challenge to find an affordable option. He has no reactions of itchy skin with the Kangaroo/Boar. Having it set for auto delivery every 3 weeks is really convenient.
This is a very good product. My dog loves it and I found that she has more energy, shinier coat and her breath doesn't smell that bad.
I would Highly recommend
Wanting a low calorie diet for my basset and I believe this will help.
Our Labrador is thriving on the raw beef dog food. It arrives in convenient 1lb chubs. When we are low on food, we place an online order on a Sunday and the delivery arrives on our doorstep on Tuesday. We order enough to get a bulk discount and free shipping. We have never had any issues with not receiving our order, even on stormy days! We have now been a customer of Grand Dog Essentials for 8 years.
Dogs absolutely love their Bow Beef from 4 roots. I like that I can dehydrate some of it too for training treats.
Grand Dog Essentials have been so amazing with deliveries. I was waitng for..then had my hio replacement surgery and they accommodated my every need.
Great food.. Great service what else do you need ❤️
We just switched from a beef/chicken/veg/organ mix from another supplier to the turkey/turkey organ mix with Four roots, so far the dog loves it. The box came with 40 x 1 pound portions which is much better than the previous 3 pound logs that we had to cut up into 1 pound pieces, love it! It cost a bit more per pound than the other mix but is still a fair price. The reason for the switch is the dog scratches a lot, only time will tell if this solves our dogs scratching issue!
Our two dogs jump for when they know their is coming
Bones are great. My dog loves them and they don’t splinter.
my dogs would really miss their chicken backs, great for a crunchy treat anytime
We've always been very happy with the product and delivery.
