Please know that although a lot of pet food companies that sell dry kibble (even the expensive brands) claim that their pet food is healthy. Please also know that dry kibble although the ingredients that are supposed to be healthy are very over processed and by the time it gets to the pet the nutrients just aren't what they should be to provide the pet with the adequate nutrition that they should be getting. So I'm giving my dog optimum food while saving money as opposed to the food I was giving him before."
"We also have a pom with a paralyzed throat and no teeth (he is 16 and was attacked by a dog a few years ago) He has to eat soft food and I really am not a fan of canned dog food as it has to many bad things in it. I totally recommend this dog food and if I could give it 10 stars I would."
"It contained all of the ingredients that I use when I make my own dog food from scratch, but this was dehydrated. Now at meal time they jump around and dance excitedly while I am preparing it for them. It's a lot easier to mix this than it is to do all of the shopping, chopping, and prep I used to put into making their food from scratch. Their coats are glossy, their poops are solid, and my one allergy dog is itch-free on this formula."
"I rescued her when she was 3 and she came to our family with many health issues including untreated Addison's disease, recurring urinary tract infections, infected paws, excessive drinking, weeping eyes, etc. Then it was recalled and I discovered that many dog foods were made in the same plants and could therefore be contaminated even if they had high quality ingredients. So I went back online and found a site called thetruthaboutpetfood and purchased a list of recommended dog foods that the site owner researched and deemed high quality. Her eyes don't weep which is HUGE. As stated in other reviews, her bowel movements have increased but it's worth it to me to have a health, happy dog."
Embark is higher in protein and fat than other Honest Kitchen recipes so it’s perfect for puppies and active adult dogs, especially agility dogs who need a performance dog food. Because Embark is a grain free dog food, it's great for pups who have dog food allergies or sensitivities to grains & gluten or those who need a low carbohydrate dog food. This dog food is 100% human-grade dog food (an important quality distinction!). MADE IN THE USA: All ingredients are processed in the USA in a human grade food processing facility with nothing from China.

"I feed my dog a raw diet and despite what "the experts" say about dogs not needing veggies/fruits in their diet I was worried that she was missing key nutrients."
"When I only have one days protein left, I move the freezer protein to the fridge."
"The first batch I made with ground turkey he wouldn't touch, so I mixed in sardines and he seemed to like it better. He wouldn't even touch the turky because it was mixed with the honest kitchen beef :(. I love the concept, and how easy it is to use."
"I will say it is a little more work but in the time that he has been eating this I have noticed that his coat is coming back in, his yeast seems to have cleared up, and he is no longer scratching himself raw."
"And another thing, my vet told me that he was getting a lot of dogs with pancreatitis and kidney disease that were on that same premium food."
"I love not worrying if my dog is getting a well balanced meal since I prefer to home cook."
"He really likes Honest Kitchen base mixed with cooked ground turkey or beef, and it never triggers his stomach upset problem."

"Dogs loved them."
"The patties themselves feel rather delicate and flaky (of course, since they're freeze-dried) but I can easily break them into smaller pieces without them falling apart in my hand which is certainly appreciated. I let my cat sniff since she was curious and I expected her to turn her nose up to it like she does with a lot of other treats...well, I was wrong."
"When I worry about her dehydrating, I crumble half of a patty into a cup of boiling hot water and let it sit until cool."
"I was feeding him dry kibble before and he would leave the food sitting for hours or until he was hungry."
"I have bought this from both my local pet store and from Amazon."
"But last night I actually crumbled the patties and I felt something sharp that hurt my finger. I tore through the bag and crumbled all the patties and found bone shards of all shapes and sizes, some close to 1 cm long! And some with very sharp edges.You would never know this unless you actually crumbled the patties with your fingers. sharp bone fragments that are hidden in these patties."
"Very disappointed."
