Dr. Harveys Avis 8

My Mimi loves Dr Harveys Canine Health. I have been feeding her Canine Health because of her kidney disease and she is 11 years old and she acts like she is 2 years old

Trust me I wouldn’t give them any stars if possible.
Let me start by saying don’t take a chance with Dr. Harvey’s dog food. My dog hated it and they have a 90 return policy, but only if you pay to ship it back. Wait what I have to pay. I buy a lot of stuff online and I can’t remember one telling me to pay for return shipping not one at all. So when I complained they just told me it was their policy. Ok so $25 to send back what looks more like horse food for $59.11 refund. They must think I’m crazy they have all the discounts for shipping. Seeing as they ship products everyday so no I’m not happy. I went on their website and did a review. Well guess what it’s not there it’s not anywhere. So they are removing bad reviews but wait isn’t this supposed to be a review of both good and bad reviews NO it’s supposed to only paint them in a good light. So I do not trust Dr. Harvey’s dog food that looks and smells like something else. So be smart don’t buy it because when your dog won’t eat it you will be stuck. No full money back guarantee nope not at all. Wonder why they have so many good reviews cos common sense is telling me that since there is no bad reviews it’s because it’s not verified purchaser so that means anyone can leave a review even there on employees. So don’t blame me because I’ve seen bad reviews on here. So follow along with me to see how many bad reviews I can give one company in different company’s that will post what’s right good and bad reviews.

We've been using this brand of dog food exclusively for over 2 years now for our fixed female 3 year old French Bulldogs. We had previously tried dry kibble to disastrous results, as well as a "fresh frozen" option that was as inconvenient as it was expensive. We started with Dr. Harvey's Limited Ingredient, since we had low confidence in getting the macro ratios correct for young puppies ourselves, and have since recently shifted to Canine Health now that our pups are considered adults. The transition was totally smooth, and our dogs absolutely love this stuff. I usually alternate between adding cooked lean ground turkey or beef, and have even used Dr. Harvey's dehydrated rabbit treats as a protein in a pinch. We use the Health & Shine oil as the fat, and this is proving to be a much more economical way to feed our dogs. Frenchies are notoriously allergenic and prone to digestive issues, but we have experienced absolutely no issues whatsoever with this brand. Our pups were adopted from two separate litters, and one had significant persistent health issues until making a spontaneous full recovery at over a year old. I credit this brand for helping to make that possible. Some say there is too much grain in the Canine Health, but the health of our dogs speaks for itself as far as I'm concerned. They are happy and healthy and we only ever have to take them to the vet for their annual exams. If you're on a budget and want to feed your pups well affordably, give this is a shot.

This is a great dog food and company. I can't believe some of these poor reviews I've read. One person mentioned the amount of 'cups' of food and water required. They are not cups, they are little scoops that the company provides. They have great customer service. You get free shipping I believe with most purchases and definitely with all subscription orders which also save you money. I've used this food now for at least 2 years and saw improvement with my dogs different issues.

DO NOT PURCHASE UNLESS YOU'RE ABSOLUTELY SURE YOU LIKE PRODUCT. I bought Canine Health. I found it had too much grain and not enough veg. So I ordered via website the Veg to Bowl. Delivery was taking too long so I drove half a hour to buy a bag at a local store with intent to return Veg to Bowl that was en route.

First, the food is 4 stars because I have to mix Canine Health with Veg to Bowl to get desired grain to veg ratio.

Second, I removed 3 stars because delivery cost to ship to me is $5. The website cheerfully states they will refund you within 90 days no questions asked. I went to mailbox store to return UNOPENED FOOD and cost to return is $25 for a $50 bag. WTF!!!!!

Third, quality of customer service is good to no comment (testy and curt). And did customer service ever bother to tell me their food is ALSO SOLD ON AMAZON which would have avoided double purchase of Veg to Bowl since Amazon delivers SAME DAY? NOPE.

Last, I left a negative review on their website. Has it been published? NOPE. Does it seem like bad reviews are weeded out? YEP.

I ordered the free sample to try before purchasing this product. The "recommended feeding amounts" state '9-18lbs - 1/4 -1 cup dry product to 1-2 cups hot water'. I tried that measurement, starting with 1 cup dry and 1 cup water, and needed to add another cup of the dry food to the 1 cup of hot water, waited over the '12 minutes' and it was still very runny, I added another 1/4 cup to finally get close to the consitency of a can of wet dog food. That means you actually need 2 1/4cups dry to 1 cup water for a 9-18lb dog. This appears to mislead the user about the quantity that the bag provides. The bag is 5.5oz of dry ingredients and claims to make 1lb of wet dog food. Sure, if you feed you dogs soup. I tried sending feedback and their response "you are always free to use less water".

Complete natural and holistic approach using whole foods for feeding your companion animal. Highly recommend depending on your dog’s health needs.

When my little dog was diagnosed with stage II chronic kidney disease (CKD) I was devastated. I've always believed that knowledge is power, so I began to read as much as I could on CKD. In this instance, however, the more I read the more confused I became. I did not want to put my dog on commercially prepared prescription food as my vet suggested. That's when I came across Dr Harvey's. They offer a sample of their dehydrated, human grade food, "Canine Miracle Health". They don't even charge for it, you just pay the shipping and handling costs. One sample bag held a generous amount: enough for more then two days of meals for my 12 lb ShihTzu.
My dog, Chewie, loved the food. He ate it up and licked the bowl clean.
The staff are amazing. I reached out to them with a few questions, and was called back by their veterinary nutritionist. She was incredibly helpful and reassuring.
That was one year ago. I've fed Chewie a consistent diet of Dr Harveys food. I took him in to have comprehensive lab testing done, and was astonished and grateful at the results: Chewie's kidney values were in their normal ranges.
I am very happy with the products that we've been using, and am so thankful to have found them!
