Bravo Homestyle Freeze Dried Dinner Beef Food, 6 Lb.

Dog approved

My dogs love this food. I've been feeding this to our first dog for about two years, and the new one has been eating it for the last three months. We put a pump of salmon oil in the bowl too, and they lick the bowls clean. The dogs are very healthy, no allergies or problems, and have beautiful coats. The amount on the bag might not reflect what they really need, just watch their weight. We had to feed our rescue beagle more than the bag recommends because he was losing weight. I like that I can feed them high quality food that will keep them healthy. I just wish there was a human version of this!

My dogs really liked it. Raw food is a good diet.Pros: Good dietHas lots of proteinAlmost everything my dogs needVery Lean - if your pup gains excess weight easilyCons:Very Lean - one of my pups lost too much weight on this. I had to switch him off.These are dehydrated cubes. You have to watch and test the chunks carefully. My chihuahua swallowed and hurt his throat so badly that he didn't eat for three days.

Henry loves this stuff... it is pricey, but for raw diets it's on par with if not less than other brands. The beef and pork recipes include nice chunks of whole and ground meat chunks and pieces. It rehydrates well with cool water in about 15 minutes, and it smells fresh. I have tried many freeze-dried raw diets from different makers, and Bravo! is my go-to brand. Henry is about 70 lbs and the large bag lasts about 2 weeks (3 to 3-1/2 cups per day).

The dogs get fed twice a day, but would leave their kibble most of the day and eat a little at a time. With this food, they devour it within minutes of the bowls hitting the floor, then lick the outside of the bowls, lick the floor all around the bowl, then look at me imploringly for more. I actually mix this with some rice cooked in bone broth and their old kibble food, so this only makes up 1/3 of their bowls now, but it makes all the difference in how much they like their food.

Seller very combative. This diet didn't work for my Pomeranians. I contacted seller and she said I didn't ration the food correctly by introducing the raw diet. First of all, my Pomeranians only eat 1/2 cup, explain how you're supposed to mix the percentage of old with new food. It's hard to measure out the freeze dried raw diet anyway. Second, my Pomeranians adjust very well with the introduction of a new diet without going slowly. However, the owner of the company claims to know everything dog and assumed since it take weeks to introduce the Bravo or at least that's the recommendation that it couldn't possibly be that it just didn't agree with my babies. Very, very expensive and disappointed. I introduced a new diet to my Pomeranians without rationing and believe it or not, they LOVED IT and didn't get sick. So, my opinion is the diet wasn't right for us and I was refused a credit. If the product is so great why wouldn't she stand behind her product and not be so defensive when I contacted her regarding my issue. $100 in the garbage. Bravo should be ashamed.

My dog is allergic to poultry and this food keeps my dog in fighting shape. She loves the food. Is it worth the money, yes! I will keep my puppy eating well and happy

I feed a homemade raw diet to five dogs, four that compete in multiple performance events. The Bravo Freeze Dried Beef Dinner is great to have on hand when I travel to competitions with my dogs, or just forget to thaw a bag of food. Soak for 20 minutes in warm water and you have a high quality meal that has been well-received by all canine members of my household. This was originally recommended to me as a "back up" food by my homeopathic vet who has extensive knowledge of dog nutrition.
