User questions & answers

Question:	Which ingredients are imported, and from where
Answer:	Look at the ingredient list on the back of the bag. US and imported ingredients. How much of the protein actually comes from meat? Is this dead, diseased and dying meat or is it USDA inspected and human grade meat and all the added junk is just that. Dogs increasingly are getting cancer, as people feed them kibble without knowing the food sources or the "additional" ingredients. Read the Truth about Pet Food -- while it can be a little extreme - the basic information is correct...
Question:	Free samples which ones
Answer:	No free samples BUT there is a trial-size bag to sample without buying too much. I did the sample bag Salmon and my picky eater likes it and trust me my girl won't eat most........she eats Victor Performance and that's about it. She started on Blue Buffalo Bison...but then stop eating unless I add something like chicken or hamburger to it.............then I found Victor and she has been on it since.....lately she has not been so eager to eat so, I tried the Way..........bingo............she liked it!
Question:	What ingredients are imported? Also what plant is this food made at
Answer:	So I share your concern. Most dog foods say "made with international ingredients" and this is a red flag for me. China has been known to have bone meal made with with products from euthanized animals. This is your greatest concern. In the case of this dog food, the beef is sourced from the usa but all other variations are from "international sources" so I am trying the beef version. I will mix this with their current food and slowly transition. I would rather have 100% usa sourced ingredients but this is next to impossible to find.
Question:	Other ingredients are sourced around the world... what and where? Does that mean we should be worried about the ingredients and their sources
Answer:	From the product description: "High quality ingredients are blended in the USA for quality control..." The word 'blended' is a weasel word that entirely obfuscates the actual sources of the ingredients; this along with 'in the USA' appears to be misleading by design.

User questions & answers

Question:	chicken protein content
Answer:	Vanilla
Question:	Is this kibble smallish
Answer:	When I purchased this, they were in individual boxes and the 3 boxes were sealed (essentially shrink wrapped/ clear plastic) all together as one package. So basically once you opened the “wrap” they were in boxes. But the actual bar of soap sits in the box unwrapped.
Question:	What is pork or chicken “meal
Answer:	To me it smells like clean shea butter if you may. There is no floral in this soap at all hence no Hawaiian smells. Just clean smell of shea butter. No Dove soaps are gentle to the skin and are not irritating at all. That is one of the reasons why I prefer this soap to others. Hope this response helps you. :-)
Question:	What is crude fat % I need not less than 6% not more than
Answer:	The coarse blade is not ideal for grating garlic or ginger. Instead, we recommend using our fine blade grater, or our garlic and ginger tool.
Question:	Are the straps, cover, and toys removable and washable
Answer:	It should
Question:	is it really 39" front to back? Seems huge..pls confirm
Answer:	I would say the professional would stand up better to the test of time. Its all metal and would less likely break... oppose to the elite which has plastic.
Question:	what is the weight capacity
Answer:	I agree- absurd to put the sticker on the grating surface! I was able to remove it with orange essential oil, a safer alternative to other adhesive removers.
Question:	What batteries does this product use
Answer:	5 and 3/8 x 2.5 x 3/8
