This food is a game changer if your dog has a sensitive stomach. My dogs love this food and a little scoop makes twice as much food. My dog no longer throws up her food or has loose stools. It’s a miracle food with only good stuff in it.

Our dogs love this stuff! We bought it to mix in with medication for one of our dogs. After crushing the pill, we add it to the powder (about 1/4 of the package), add water, put it on bread or over their food and they eat it all up. Our other dog was going crazy over the smell so we make a separate mixture for him to enjoy. Truly, this is the only product we’ve found that masks the meds for our dogs and they still love it after eating it every single day for quite some time. We love it so much we use it as a topper on their food and it is a treat for them. It’s like convincing them to eat their greens without any pushback. Great product, good ingredients, and your dog will love you for it!

My 13 year-old Poodle loves this and doesn’t need encouragement to eat this. She has always loved kibbles but she could not digest them well. No issues in regugitation after she started on this.

Fantastic product. I have a boxer/pit mix and a standard poodle. The boxer will eat anything but has allergies. The poodle has never been interested in food. Until now.
The boxer no longer had allergic scratching. The poodle..,. Stands like a statue watching as I mix “cook” the food. We make it fun and set a timer. When the 3 minute alarm goes off they both go nuts and sit immediately waiting for the “go”. They both finish, clean each other’s bowl. It must taste great. It is very easy to use. I make about the thickness of oatmeal. You can smell the freshness and quality of ingredients as you stir in the water.
Great quality and value. I’m extremely pleased.

My dogs love this stuff. We have been using it for a while now and can truly say this is good quality food for our dogs. Definitely like that it’s not a huge bag of dog food which makes it easier for us to pack and take with us on trips. Highly recommend for all pet parents!

I have 3 chihuahuas and have tried so many dif foods for them. 2 of them gt bored with the same flavor all the time and 1 thts not picky is 12yrs old so i wanted one tht was good quality, lots of dif flavors, easy to eat (small dogs=small teefs and lots of teefs taken by dentist), and affordable. This brand checks all the boxes. We also use Stella&Chewy and Ziwi(this ones expensive!) The variety has been a game changer. I have had to tweek amounts cuz its easy to feed thm too much. I call it their doggie oatmeal cuz basically it is. We also get the harder crunchy food but i usually smash it up some for them.
*One problem i did encounter is my oldest guy Gary ended up with extreme constipation cuz this food does have a higher carb count. It was not pleasant. An enima was performed cuz xrays just showed he was extremely backed up. Again I have small 7&8lb dogs. Anyways it was a rough few days. After tht I used more water with the mix and added a bit of freeze dried beef or chkn frm Stew&Chew also would alternate between this doggie oatmeal and Stew&Chew digestive food. Now we are good. Lessons were learned. Also another game changer was adding a green lipid mussel supplement mixed in once a day. Not only is everything moving out on time but he has so much more energy than he ever has. This lil 12yr old chihuahua named Gary gets major zoomies. He runs out of gas quick but he used to get pulled muscles or hip pains if he played too much…not anymore. Also another thing tht changed is his sinuses. He would gt sinus infections maybe 2-3 times a yr and now none since the shift.
My other 2 dogs are very young but one guy Carl is part Italian Greyhound so he has long skinny legs and both is knees pop out every day. His elbows pop like crazy too. Hes a rescue n whn we got him 2yrs ago he had no hair on his chest and got rashes on his nose all the time n extremely skinny. Hes still skinny but now he has chest hair its very thin but thts the iggy in him. His knees ache less. And he gets very zoomy too. Our baby Birdie is just 2 but shes a chipom so I know i have to watch her diet cuz heart issues n diabetes run in her dna.
Long review with extra stuff thrown in but I wanted to explain why we love this brand. (Along with others) Trying to find the right food has been difficult. Vets always recommend Hills or Royal Canine n they arent terrible but the nutrition in those blows my mind cuz it has corn n other fillers. Our dogs would gt so bored with those they would rather eat the grass they peed or starve than eat anymore of tht kibble.
So in Conclusion….this brand is amazing! Affordable for our small 3 chihuahuas and I think its gonna help them live long healthy n happy lives!

So the pros, this is easy peasy fresh/canned food alternative. It’s the canned food without the can. It’s the fresh food without the meal prep and cooking! It’s a hybrid and the best of both worlds, all you need to do is just add water! That being said… (oh and 40lbs of dog food in a 10lb box that I can actually carry up 3 flights of stairs… YES please!!) the cons… I don’t think this is good for big dogs or a lot of dogs. This can get real expensive, real fast and to be honest… I have never measured… BUT I don’t think it makes 40lbs of food… what I mean by that is…. 40lbs of dog food (dried kibble) takes me X amount of weeks to go through… this box that supposedly makes 40lbs of dog food… did NOT last me that same amount of time. I was going through this stuff MUCH quicker than I ever was my dry kibble. My dogs LOVED it! That’s good. I DON’T think I was overfeeding them.. WHY? bc none of them gained weight! They stayed the same… So… that leads me to think.. again.. this doesn’t make exactly 40lbs of dog food equivalent. This is good for little dogs or not that many dogs OR for people who have a lot of $$ and no budget for dog food. Would I recommend, yes for those folks I just listed above otherwise, no. Would I repurchase? I have and off and on will but will use this as a supplement NOT for the entire source of their food. But quality is amazing and the dogs love it! It’s fresher than canned food and kibble and it takes the work out of cooking for your dog.

The price is very reasonable. The food is outstanding! Charlie hated his kibble, would only eat it as there was nothing else to eat, and then I found Honest Kitchen. When I’m preparing it for him, he jumps up on the cupboards, scratching, cannot wait for it to be ready. Charlie eats it all and licks the bowl. He’s never done that before, that is, not until Honest Kitchen Human Grade Dehydrated Organic Grain Chicken Dog Food. This is my 3rd order, and I’ll never ever feed Charlie anything else.

Mon chien a sûrement pas aimé ça moi je croyais que c’était des morceaux de viande et non pas de la poudre. Très déçu d’avoir payé 163.00$ pour ce produit.

For the past few months I’ve been extensively researching for a better food for my 3 small dogs, one is a schnauzer and the other two, yorkies since the the regular dry store bought kibble hadn’t been doing my little ones any favors, especially in the weight department. After giving up trying to find something better at the big box stores, I figured I’d have better luck on Amazon.
I came across this product while looking at the Sojos brand of freeze dry dog food and figured I’d try this one first since it’s cheaper and would probably be better for weight loss and maintenance.
One thing I always check is the ingredients and the nutrition panel when comparing different brands and flavors. With this particular food, I noticed that the ingredients on the list were fantastic with all of them free of nasty, harmful GMOs, and many of them being organic which is what I feed the human members of my family. Also worth mentioning, the ingredients are also human grade which is very reassuring so you know it’s higher quality and doesn’t contain questionable chemicals or ingredients like euthanized shelter animals (crude protein in many cheap-o brands of dog food, seriously. Look it up, it’s a real and tragic thing folks).
On to the nutrition; If you have a puppy or active dog, this is probably not the best formula, and this company has many to choose from. I would say it’s best suited for the less active mature/senior dogs like mine. That said, since they have been eating this food, they’ve actually had more energy and want to play much more than they used to!
The fat content in this particular food is very low in comparison to most other dog foods, the protein content is mostly from the beef and comes in at a moderate, but healthy percentage for omnivores (which I’m sure you know that dogs are omnis and not carnivores such as cats). Dogs absolutely need protein, however, too much protein can burden the liver. This formula also includes a nice panel of vitamins and minerals added in addition to the naturally occurring nutrients from the food’s wholesome ingredients.
Out of the bag, it’s a super green powdery texture with small pieces of what appears to be fruit, oats and veggies. I have to say the first time I measured it out and examined it, I was concerned, especially when I added the hot water. However, once reconstituted and cooled, the product has a lovely thick texture and smell, which is easy for my dogs to eat and digest.
For the preparation; Super easy! I just use a large Pyrex jug, fill it will purified water, microwave for a couple minutes then add in the correct amount of measured dry food from the package (which is a plastic resealable bag in a snug cardboard box). I let the food sit to fully absorb the liquid and to cool down, then feed to my anxiously waiting fur babies who are ready to gobble every last drop!!
Tip; I personally like to add in some organic Turmeric into the hot water and create a lovely tea base full of antioxidants before adding in the dry mix to add more health promoting benefits. Using hot water creates a much better texture/reconstitution than if you were to add cold or cool water.
The best part besides the fact my dogs love the taste and don’t waste, feeding time is easy, much more controlled since I am using this to help my dogs achieve a healthier weight, and this seems to last a long time. And, since the box is smaller, it is easier to store than a large bag of dry kibble, or many, many cans of moist dog food.
So far the improvements I have seen in all three dogs has been: more energy, weight control/management, better health as per vet checkup since the last. They overall seem to be happier and, as long as this product stays on Amazons subscribe and save program which makes it more cost effective, I’ll continue to purchase because the quality I get from this is far better that’s what seems to be out there, as for right now.
Hope this helps!

I have a dog who is allergic to chicken and pea protein and I have had a hard time finding a dog food she can eat. I tried making her food but because she’s a larger dog she was going through it too fast so I tried Honest Kitchen. She loves it. It has all the nutrients she needs and the box lasts me a month and a half. It’s such a time saver.

Human grade, so convenient for people wanting the best for their dog, a raw diet that doesn’t have to thaw. Personally, I don’t eat meat very often. I avoid the blood and mess and the garbage can that smell like rotten meat. This product has every bit of the goodness of a raw meat diet just none of the yuk. I weigh out the amount of dehydrated goodness (43.5 chickens in the 10 lb box plus oats, veggies and other good things. Just add enough water to make it the consistency your dog likes. Poops are small and firm. The other great thing is my dog isn’t bugging me for more food. She doing great., full of energy, vitality,. She is almost 7 and people think she’s a puppy. I know it’s because I feed her the best and this product fits the bill

My dog loves Honest Kitchen much better thank Grandma Lucy’s. I went back and forth between the two products for about a year .. with my old Whippet that passed. My new boy another Whippet, came to us as a young puppy.. he is now a year old and gets an extremely high quality dry food as well as Honest Kitchen, I fed him the remainder of what I had left in the bag of Grandma Lucy’s, he would leave it in his dish unless I mixed a lot of people food with it.. I feel that they (dogs) don’t get enough water with the dry diet. With Honest Kitchen, I add some of what we have for dinner and mix it in, add the required amount of water and serve..he loves it. .I will sometimes pop it in the microwave to heat it up as well. He is one spoiled puppy. As far as price, I bought it here for 20 dollars less than at my pet food store.. It arrived the next day.. I was totally amazed.. great product… “it’s delicious” signed Tommy the Whippet.

My dogs love this food. It’s human grade food made in a human food factory. One box goes a long way because it’s dehydrated. You mix hot water into it and you have a warm fresh nutritious food that is wholesome and meets human grade food standards. Their coats are silky soft and they have no digestive issues. They love the food and eat it enthusiastically. I highly recommend this food to any pet parent who wants to feed a wholesome nutritious food.

My dogs love this! I have tried other freeze-dried foods that they didn’t like, and I was surprised at how much they liked this! The ingredients are human-grade, and the quality is good. It is very easy to reconstitute with hot tap water. The instructions aren’t very clear about the ideal food-to-water ratio, but I usually add a little more water than food and let it sit to thicken. Don’t let the size of the box fool you. The 10-pound box makes about 40 pounds of food, which, cost-wise, makes this a premium dog food. I typically feed raw, but this is an excellent substitution for those who want to optimize their dogs’ nutrition.
Received packaging but packaging was damaged. The food was spilled in the box. –
This is a great addition to my picky eaters diet. Mix a small amount of this (hydrated) with his kibble and he eats every meal!

I’m so impressed with The Honest Kitchen Dehydrated Whole Grain Chicken Dog Food! It’s the perfect solution for my dog’s meals, and I love knowing that I’m feeding him something healthy and nutritious. The dehydrated formula is easy to prepare – I simply add water, and it’s ready to serve. I’ve noticed that my dog loves the taste and always finishes his meal without hesitation.
The ingredients are top-notch, and I love that it’s made with whole grains and real chicken, providing my dog with high-quality protein and essential nutrients. It’s great to see a brand that focuses on whole food ingredients without any fillers or artificial additives. Plus, it’s made with natural ingredients, which gives me peace of mind about what my dog is eating.
The 4 lb box lasts me a decent amount of time, and I feel good about giving my dog a nutritious meal every day. I’ve also seen an improvement in his coat and overall energy since switching to this food. If you’re looking for a high-quality, easy-to-prepare, and nutritious food for your dog, I highly recommend The Honest Kitchen Dehydrated Whole Grain Chicken Dog Food.
Overall, it’s a great choice for any dog parent who wants the best for their pet!

This brand/ product is such good food option for your dogs. I cook for my dog but when we travel I switch to using this because it is fast and easy to bring along. All you have to do is add water and it rehydrates the food. The ingredients also are much better than kibble. Highly recommend.
Mr. Picky –
Good quality food which gets 5 stars, insufficient info to make educated decisions re feeding quantity earns 1 star.
Their customer service is apparently unable to tell you what is the calorie value of either a known volume (such as a cup) or a specific weight (such as 8 ounces) when the food is mixed and ready to eat.
They can tell you what the calorie value of premixed food is but this is useless if you are trying to be very accurate with your dog’s diet for weight management.
Choices are either to add 1 cup of dried food to 1-1/2 cups of water, measure that volume accurately and then calculate the calorific value per cup of the mixed food – or find another provider of dried food who actually knows the answer.
I know exactly how many ounces or cups of my chosen kibble to feed each dog each day; I have no idea of what that equates to in Honest Kitchen food.
J. Michelle –
This food is excellent. I don’t serve this outright as a full meal but instead use it as a premix base with my homemade food. While The Honest Kitchen does have a premix option, there are times where this is cheaper than the premix.
When using this as a base, I don’t add much to it considering the ingredient list. What I added was some seasonings, beef kidney, beef liver, more ground beef, beef tripe, salmon oil and a small bag of mixed vegetables. The texture ended up looking a bit like thinned out oatmeal but I’m fine with that.
Like the premix, this has been good to my girl. Her skin and coat has been shiney without shedding. She hasn’t been itchy. She’s highly energetic. Her breath isn’t bad and her bowels are smaller without being overtly offensive.
I’m all for the purchase of this food as a complete meal. Even without the additional meats and grains I still trust The Honest Kitchen. It actually looks like beef. I recently purchased Three Bears from Grandma Lucy’s only to be disappointed. For a food to have beef, you’d think it was a light brown color but no. This food for sure doesn’t lie about their meat content and it smells pretty darn good. It taste good too. I’ve tasted all the meals not kibble I’ve presented my girl to date. If I didn’t know better I may consider eating her food.
Overally, these dehydrated mixes is worth the purchase. My family loves them. I highly recommend all of the ones I’ve purchased from The Honest Kitchen to date.

I mix honest kitchen dog food with raw meat to give the best diet for my furry baby. My dog never been this healthy.
Richard –
It’s quite expensive, but my dog seems to love it. He’s healthy and happy. He eats a pound and a half of beef and a 1/4 pound of this dehydrated food every day. If they keep raising the price, I’m going to have to start a GoFundMe campaign.

We have been feeding our dogs Honest Kitchen dehydrated food for quite some time now and it’s great when you have dogs who have to take regular medication and can’t be coaxed into swallowing pills (no matter what you try to hide them in). You can crush pills or pierce capsules and pour the liquid into this food, add water, stir and wait 3 minutes and the dogs eat it up. I find my dogs like the beef and fish flavors the best, and yes, it looks like oatmeal when it is ready. I top it with some kibble so they have the crunch as well as the stew. It’s nice that you know every ingredient that is in your dog’s food and that it is humanely and sustainably sourced. My dogs love it and get barky when the box is opened. Also, you don’t have to deal with all the cans that come with wet food!

Our Pups are in Food Nirvana! They absolutely love Their Honest Kitchen meals! When its time to eat they are as so excited… Its like how I get when I order a Double Double Animal Style at In N Out Burger. We have two young Frenchies and an older Maltese. All 3 been fine dining on Honest Kitchen food for 6 months now. We prepare it with hot water and mix it up like oatmeal (which is great as I will explain in a moment). Our frenchie Jax was the biggest concern before we found the HK food option…. food allergies, rashes, kibble regurgitation, bowel issues….. you name it, it was no fun for Jax. He started on the “Grain Free” version of HK 6 months back. Everything is good! No rashes, no getting sick, normal bowels…. its like he’s a new man. He’s happy, and you know the french aren’t always the happiest people. Cooper, our 1 yr old frenchie loves it. At 9 months he was a bit of load…. 6 months later he looks like Chris Hemsworth with an under bite! Chloe our 13 yr old Maltese could care less about eating her whole life. She only only cared about looking pretty. Well even fashion models get old…The last few years its been harder for her to eat because it hurts her teeth. On the Honest Kitchen she has become a foodie. In fact, when its time to eat, just get out of her way or you’ll lose a finger! She did not do any of the following things for 12 years…but now, oh my god, she’s annoying…. Barking to tell us that it’s time to eat at the exact time each day (She will come and find me in my office and stare at me); Licking her bowl for a good 5 minutes after she’s finished; Checking the other dogs bowls and licking them: going back to her bowl and licking it again. If she had an Amazon Prime acct we would be in serious trouble! The best thing is that the Honest Kitchen smells like Thanksgiving Dinner! I actually get hungry when I make their Honest Kitchen meals, which is a far cry from dry heaving whenever we had to feed them wet food from the can. Honest Kitchen is like Thanksgiving Oatmeal. Maybe that’s what the should name one of their flavors! It may cost a bit more than other options but after all these are your fur babies. Keep them happy and healthy but do yourself a favor and get rid of the metal dog bowls or all the licking will sound like a really bad band is in your laundry room (Thats where Chloe eats)!

I have six small dogs and 3 of them get The honest Kitchen to eat. Charlie my long coat chihuahua has a very sensitive belly and so I am very careful about what I feed him. He is usually raw fed but since he is a little guy I usually don’t hand him a raw steak or piece of chicken. (though I do that as well) The honest kitchen is a really good brand. I am very impressed by the products they put in their food. It is human grade which says a lot. Yes the food is a little costly and yes it has the consistency of oatmeal but it is so much better for your dog then kibble. I do feed a certain kind of kibble at times because the dogs like being able to crunch sometimes and the two old dogs (1 16 year old chihuahua and 1 16 year old pomeranian) has teeth problems. Well the pom actually has no teeth! They all love this food. I do keep it interesting and add things regularly like fresh veggies, cottage cheese, yogurt, and so on. Read what is in your dog food and do your research. I have learned a lot about dog food over least last few years and there are things I really did not want to know.
So back to the honest kitchen: You measure out what amount you need (I give them a little less then the recommended amount and split it into two meals) add some hot water, stir and let it sit. at times I will add a little more water half way through as it gets really thick sometimes. Now the package says 15 minutes I believe but I will usually let it sit for about an hour. It seems that they are able to digest it better when it sits longer. I switch out the flavors because no one likes to eat the same thing over and over. Overall I am extemely happy with The honest kitchen and always recommend it. I do not buy any food from petstore chains or grocery stores. Same goes with treats.

Perfect food for my senior dog. He loves the flavor and consistency. I love the ease of preparation and the healthy ingredients. So much better than canned dog food that you have to refrigerate and reheat.
