Dr. Harvey's Paradigm Green Superfood Dog Food, Human Grade Dehydrated Grain Free Base Mix for Dogs, Diabetic Low Carb Ketogenic Diet (3 Pounds)

Switched to this after trying almost everything else my vet recommended, and wish i had started here… not only does my little diabetic dog love this, but my other three babies too!!! They love these entire Dr. Harvey’s line of food and treats

After our 8 yr old little guys anal gland cancer diagnosis (AGASACA) June of '22, first we prayed then we started researching all of our options to give him the best outcome. He had a successful surgery to remove the tumor in June and we discovered Paradigm food in August/September. He went for his 3 month Follow up and is in doggy remission! (*please check your pet for lumps or bumps near their anal glands! A hard lump found early can save them! It is easy to feel if they have one and if you're not sure, ask your vet to check during their annual exam....most vets don't normally but if you ask they will and it's free!)We give all the glory to God from the way we found his mass (accidentally), to his good health and happiness all throughout vet visits and surgery, I truly believe God does what we can't and guides us to do the things we can. One of the things I researched was diet for our boy. Cancer feeds on carbs and sugars! This food has so few carbs and that aids in starving the cancer cells. So many homemade recipes just don't have the nutrients dogs need (all sorts of vitamins, calcium, protein, etc)...while it's possible to buy these and add them into their food, it then becomes a balancing act of not over adding supplements or not giving enough, and it changes with each recipe! This food is not cheap, but the supplement balancing act has been done for you, ingredients are healthy, and the prep time is a breeze. I make a couple servings at a time and serve one fresh at night and refrigerate the other for the next days breakfast. I went on vacation for a week and meal prepped for his sitter....froze them and all she had to do was defrost or warm up and add oil! Easy! It's also easy to bring the bag along should we take him on vacation with us ...He is 25 lbs and a bag lasts about a month. I use fish oil from Amazon, it takes one pump per serving. For protein, I use all different kinds and treat him to good cuts of beef, liver, fish, ground turkey, chicken, eggs(2 eggs per serving for his weight), lean stew meat, ...a couple of money saving protein options I've found are chicken livers, chicken gizzards (these are tough so boil them then put them in a food processor or chop finely), ground chicken (less expensive than ground turkey), eggs, calf liver....just google the amount your dog can have of certain meats (for example too much liver is not good, you have to spread it out!). Check your grocery store, there are lots to choose from! *If you email the company, they will send you a free sample that lasts for a few meals - I did that and had it within a few days! He loved it so I ordered a bag on prime.I truly feel our buddy will have a long time with us and changing to this healthier diet will only add to his health and keep him in remission. Overall, factoring in the price and headache of supplements that would need to go into making homemade from scratch, this food is fairly priced in comparison. When you love them like we do, you make it work and cooking for him hasn't been an inconvenience at all, I actually think it's fun! He used to pass on breakfast when he was on kibble...now he gets up in the morning ready to eat!!

I have an 11 month old puppy that has food allergies. In the past 6 months I’ve learned so much about kibble and what goes into kibble that I can’t believe it’s legal to sell. So I decided to go raw. Bought a food processor and everything. The food processor is still in the box probably collecting dust. I became a little overwhelmed and when I came across Dr. Harvey’s I was instantly impressed with the ingredients, the quality and how easy it’s made to serve up a healthy delicious meal for my little dude. And you know what? It smells delicious! He’s only 6 pounds but he was making some loud little piggy snorting sounds as he gobbled it up. I highly recommend giving Dr. Harvey’s a try.

We switched to dr Harvey’s over a year ago and our dogs have never looked better. Their weight is always in the healthy range, their coats are full and shiny, and they have energy for days. It makes feeding fresh food so much easier and takes all the questioning out of it. The transition to fresh was also way easier than trying to switch them to another dog food brand. I recommend all the dr Harvey products to everyone I know. We switch it up between all their different base mixes so our dogs are getting a variety and they love them all! Even our 12 year old picky rescue dog was excited to try this food!

We’ve been buying Dr Harvey’s for a few years now and we’ve been happy with their food. I rotate this with Dr Harvey’s Grain free beef and garden veggies. My dog love them both. After many, many years of my dog getting what we call the “gulpies”, I’m happy to say that her episodes of gastro upset she had been having has almost disappeared. So if you’re feeding your dog kibble, and your dog gets reflux, stomach issues, etc, I’d recommend giving this a try. Kibble is heavily processed and this food is more nutritious and it’s nice not having so many vet bills.I’m rating this 4, not 5 stars, because this is very “dusty”. After you scoop, and go to close the bag, stand clear because it’s so thin and fine, it looks like it kicks up a layer. I hope the manufacturer considers making the food less thin, maybe more chunks, like the beef and veggies is.This is easy once you get used to it. You mix it with water, let sit for 10 minutes to rehydrate, and you can add your own protein and oil. We use coconut oil, and lean ground beef. This lets you control which protein you’re feeding.My dog is doing well on this food. We’ve also started only giving fresh fruits and veggies as treats (verses store bought crunchy ones ) and this helps keep her from having stomach upset and issues.Another thing I’d like to see is larger bags to make it more cost friendly, which would be helpful for those with larger dogs or multi dog households.

So far, great!

Excel, easy but most of all balanced and the dogs love it

This food is great, it feels good to see my dog eating a bunch of vegetables. The only reason I can’t give it five stars is because it’s not USDA certified organic. I wish they would get a certified USDA organic option. I don’t do the raw food with it, but I still add it to his other food and he loves it.
