User questions & answers

Question:	Does the heat of summer effect the shelf life
Answer:	Sure. I'm not sure it would fit in one of those dink. 'Apartment' ovens, that are severely undersized, but it would fit in any oven I ' had bigger than that.
Question:	How long will it last for a 12 pound miniature doxie
Answer:	The other answers to this question are correct. Make sure that the stone is very hot. Depending on what you are coming, use corn meal on the stone. DO NOT use a non stick spray on the stone.
Question:	Including water, how many pounds does a 10 lb box actually yield
Answer:	I have never run it higher than 575 degrees, so I can not answer that question.
Question:	I have a 45 lb high energy pit bull; how long should I expect a 10 lb box to last
Answer:	Mark, thanks for the question. I apologize for not being able to respond to you sooner, and I'd like to take a moment to answer your question now.This baking stone was updated in 2015 and now measures 20" by 13.5" by .67" Inches. The width of the stone remains the same, but the length was reduced by 2.5 inches. These changes were made in response to customer feedback that the stone was too long for many standard ovens. The 20" long stone can now fit in most ovens. We also boosted the stone's thickness to make it even more durable. We're glad we were able to make these changes for our customers.Please don't hesitate if you have any other questions.Pizzacraft Customer Service

User questions & answers

Question:	Twenty pounds is 2.5 cases of canned food. A big commitment. I'd like to try it but not so much for a first order. Are there smaller orders sizes
Answer:	The "claw" end can open up large enough to entrap an edge of a cell phone like the iPhone 8 as long as it doesn't have to large of a case around it. But the spring strength of the gripper is probably not strong enough to lift the phone on its own.
Question:	How many 1 lb rolls come in the shipment? I am confused it says 1 lb and then the title say there are 20 1 lb rolls
Answer:	i dont know
Question:	Do you sell sample packs? Like a 5 lb option, to see if yiur pet will eat it? 20 lbs is a lot to start out with
Answer:	No, no magnet. Mine only had two claws, not four. Not much good for picking up anything.
Question:	Is taurine in the food
Answer:	If the drain blockage is really close to the mouth of the drain the green strip has super sharp teeth like a reticulated python and I used it first...AND IT WORKED IMMEDIATELY!!! SUPER SHARP teeth that grabbed the hair and gook and cleared the drain.

User questions & answers

Question:	Is this product shipped frozen? How long does it stay frozen? It usually takes 2-3 weeks to get orders in Hawaii
Answer:	I was just there, so go log into the Honest Kitchen.com site and near the top, click on the "Help Center" and then the first choice is "How much to feed". It references a 7 and 10 pound box (various formulas), the weight of the dog and one column tells you about how long it will last. This would be a great place for you to start reading, think it will answer your question and more :) I have used their food for years....really and tried all of them. My dog as well as other is allergic to chicken, so we stay away from the formulas with that. It's great food and you won't find a better company with better practices (I really believe that). Good luck & Merry Christmas !
Question:	Isn’t tomatoes deadly for dogs
Answer:	Hi Edward H., once hydrated, our 10lb box yields 40lbs of food. If you have any other questions, please feel free to give us a call at 866-437-9729, or send us an e-mail at [email protected].
Question:	Can this be used as the main diet? Or does it just replace some of it
Answer:	According to the box, they recommend splitting the daily food into two servings, or 2-4 cups DRY per day with 3-6 cups of water. According to the box, this means one 10 lb box will last 10-20 days. My dog is around 60 pounds and also active (5 years old) and should get a little more than your dog. I can't afford those kind of prices, so I halve the amount of Honest Kitchen Force and supplement with Blue Buffalo Wilderness. So I get 1.5 months out of a box, and more than that from the Blue Buffalo Bag (40 lb.). Note that I have found Force available $5 cheaper at a local store than on the internet.

User questions & answers

Question:	Are the kibbles hard or soft? size of kibbles
Answer:	Yes. We currently only sell 20 packs on Amazon.com though.
Question:	Do any of the ingredients come from China
Answer:	Taurine is naturally occurring in meat. If the meat is not cooked, then the taurine does not break down. When cats had problems in the 50s, it was due to over-processed canned foods in which the taurine was totally destroyed by the canning process. That’s when we discovered cats require taurine. By feeding a raw diet, regardless of whether taurine is added, your kitty is eating ample levels of taurine.

User questions & answers

Question:	Does the skin & coat health (salmon) and the mobility support ones (new zealand mussell) have a fishy smell to them
Answer:	It has been very helpful for my elderly dog who has a loss of feeling/muscle use in his back legs that is worsening (degenerative myelopathy). I give him about 8 pieces per meal - more than that is TOO much (stool will be way too soft). If your dog is otherwise healthy & has normal intestinal health - I would only sprinkle a few pieces on per meal and see how it goes. If your dog has constipation- I would give about 7-8 pieces (for a 40-50 lb dog) per meal. If it's just to be a "treat" - go easy on them, or you'll have a lot of poop! :)
Question:	Would these be a good fiber additive to my pups diet
Answer:	no
Question:	Why is there a shipping charge when listed as prime
Answer:	Hi there, my name is Missy and I work with Instinct. Apple cider vinegar is believed to have many great health benefits; specifically that is helps maintain the pH in the body which supports digestion, which is key for optimum gut health!
Question:	Why is apple cider in Instincts raw boost gut health dog food
Answer:	Hi Linda! My name is Cait and I work with Instinct. Just like with any canned food, we would recommend refrigerating this recipe in between feedings if you're not using the entire pouch.

Product description

We're a family owned human-grade pet food company that works with veterinarian, Dr. Karen Becker to make “home cooked style” whole food recipes for dogs & cats.

Every single batch we cook gets lab safety tested for E. coli, listeria, and salmonella. We have a hold release program where we don’t ever ship our food unless it passes the lab safety test. The lab results are posted on our website for everyone to see, along with a map tracing all our ingredients to their source, and a video showing how our food gets cooked.

User questions & answers

Question:	Is there an ingredient list, besides “limited ingredients

Question:	How many cups is in a bag approximately? I would love to start my cocker on this and want to have a good freezer supply

Question:	Is this a raw dog food
Answer:	We only sell our complete 1-lb rolls in a 20 pack on Amazon.
Question:	Can this be defrosted, separated into small portions, then re-frozen? There is no way my 7 lb. dog will eat 2 lbs. of food in 6 days
Answer:	There are (20) individual 1-lb rolls! So a total of 20 lbs of food!

Product description

ABOUT WHOLE GRAIN BEEF DOG FOOD RECIPEBefore there was The Honest Kitchen, there was this single recipe that started it all, made by our company founder—Lucy, in her own (honest) kitchen. It was the world’s FIRST human grade pet food. It’s low calorie, low protein, low fat, and perfect for adult and senior dogs maintaining their doggy figures. See what all the fuss was about with tasty ranch-raised beef, fresh produce, and whole grain goodness. This complete and balanced dish nourishes adult and senior dogs looking to maintain their doggy figures. It’s low calorie, low protein, low fat, but high in yumminess. THE HONEST DIFFERENCEMost pet food makers would never invite you inside their kitchens—because they’re not kitchens. They’re heavy processing plants. Our company started in our founder's kitchen in 2002, where she made meals for her family (both human and pets). Today, we still prepare food with the same love and uncompromising quality. Our food is made from ingredients you’d recognize in your own kitchen right alongside breakfast cereals and bakery mixes, so it satisfies the same rigorous safety, cleanliness and quality standards of people food. If we wouldn’t put it on our own dinner table, we won’t feed it to your pet. INGREDIENTS WITH INTEGRITYFrom eggs and salmon to pumpkin and parsley, wholesome foods you recognize and can pronounce are the only ingredients we use. And what we leave out is as important as what we put in. Our food is made in the USA and never contains the potentially unsafe and unhealthy ingredients found in feed-grade products. - No by-products or fillers- No additives or preservatives- No “4D” meats or feathers- No corn, wheat or soy- No ingredients from China- No GMO ingredientsOur suppliers must certify they meet the strictest standards for food safety and health as well as sustainability and fair-trade practices. Every year, each of our suppliers signs our “Human Food Grade ” and “Statement of Quality and Integrity. ” It’s not easy to become one of our supplies — and for good reason. BENEFITS OF DEHYDRATED DOG FOODPet food makers have figured out all kinds of ways to process their products. Most put your need for easy feeding way ahead of what’s best for your pets. We don’t. That’s why we started with dehydrated foods. You’ll tell by the true colors and fresh smells that they’re better for your pets. By gently dehydrating our ingredients, we’re able to retain more of the natural vitamins, minerals and phytonutrients that are often lost with traditional highly-processed pet food. Our ingredients are finely ground making them easier to digest. Because we remove all the water from our food, it’s super compact and nutrient dense. A 10lb box makes 40lbs of fresh food! WHY HUMAN GRADEFor veterinarians, food safety experts and savvy pet owners, there’s 100% human grade, and there’s everything else. It’s the best pet food you can buy, ensuring a level of quality and safety no feed-grade product can claim. We use only the highest quality ingredients from sources we trust (and no phony, feed grade ingredients ever). Our preparation methods and facilities meet safety standards 7x those of feed-grade ones. We do more than meet the highest standard for food safety and quality — we invented it. A few other pet food brands have since followed our lead, but most continue to use inferior, feed-grade ingredients. Once you learn the difference, you’ll never go back to feed grade again. HOW TO MAKEIt’s as easy as 1-2-3! 1. Just add water2. Wait 3 minutes while food rehydrates3. Serve with love!

• ORGANIC WHOLE GRAIN: The Honest Kitchen Whole Grain Beef dog food is dog food made with free range chicken and dehydrated for maximum nutrition for Adult and Less Active/Senior
• LOW CALORIE, LOW PROTEIN AND LOW FAT: Perfect for adult and senior dogs maintaining their doggy figures.
• HUMAN GRADE: The Honest Kitchen meets the rigorous FDA safety standards to use the label 'human grade', ensuring the highest quality dog food.

User questions & answers

Question:	Why can't you just leave the garlic out? Now I am worried about continuing to feed to my babies
Answer:	Hi there! My name is Cait and I work with Nature's Variety. Our kibble is about the size of a pea, but flat, not sphere shaped. The “actual size” of the kibble is pictured on the back of all our bags. However, we do have certain specifications that we meet, and the size may vary slightly from batch to batch.
Question:	What should the consistency be when mixed? My first time and it came out really soupy. Did I use too much water
Answer:	Hi there- Our kibble or wet food may contain minor ingredients (vitamins, trace nutrients) sourced from China to ensure supply is guaranteed. Our approved supplier has put in measures to assure food safety and traceability from a trusted supply chain. If you have any further questions, our Customer Service team is always happy to help! They can be reached at [email protected] or 1-888-519-7387.
Question:	How many cups of dry food are in the 10lb box
Answer:	Hello, Probably a pouch a day if that’s the only food you are feeding. My 20 lb Bichon eats about 1/3- 1/2 a pouch with a handful of kibble. Also, he has a portion of lean meat like chicken breast every day. He’s a big eater! He absolutely Loves Rudy Green’s Beefy Rice and the Turkey Mac and Cheese! I’m so glad I discovered Rudy Greens! I love that my dog is getting vegetables and other quality ingredients every day!
Question:	Is this food good for weight loss? I have an 8 year of Pom that needs to lose about 7 lbs
Answer:	I have kept it frozen for up to a year.

User questions & answers

Question:	Is there a canned moist dog food with the same ingredients
Answer:	Thank you very much for reaching out! You can find the ingredient list for each recipe on the 2nd image of each product page as this is an image of the back of our bags.
Question:	What percent is protein
Answer:	There are about four cups in a bag. So it's quite a high price point. My dogs really enjoyed it, but it's so expensive that I started cooking for them myself, and use this as a backup when I don't have time.
Question:	What is the purpose of the montmorillonite clay
Answer:	It is cooked at very low temp. Just started my dogs on it as we could not get the raw chubbs anymore. One of my dogs is allergic to everything and this brand does not have any thing in it that she cannot eat. Best of all they both love it ! She was kind of overweight but is getting much more energy on this food. Arrived frozen hard even in our warm weather.
Question:	Do you add water and soak
Answer:	Thank you very much for reaching out about this! According to the USDA it is safe to refreeze cooked meat one time - just as long as it's thawed below 40 F. Meaning that if you defrost the food in the refrigerator, it is safe to refreeze. For the food you refreeze, once you defrost it again the refrigerated shelf life will be 5 days instead of 6 days. We have customers with small dogs & cats that defrost our bag and refreeze 3/4 of it in 3 different sized bags with 8oz of our food in each bag. You're obviously welcome to portion it whichever way you'd like - but we just figured we'd share that with you!

User questions & answers

Question:	Our baby is tiny. Pkg says use in 5 days. Can you freeze half of the container, thaw as needed
Answer:	Thanks for reaching out! Good question. Garlic is actually only harmful in incredibly large amounts. In small amounts, it offers many health benefits. Many holistic vets and nutritionists include a small amount of garlic in their homemade recipes. The amount of garlic that we include in some of our foods (just 0.25%), is not enough to be harmful even to the smallest of dogs. Garlic helps the immune system fight infections and disease as it strengthens the digestion and stimulates the intestinal tract. Garlic can have a powerful antioxidant effect. It helps the ability of white blood cells to fight infections by stimulating other immune cells. It also has anti-fungal and antibiotic properties. Garlic has also been shown to lower blood pressure, reduce the buildup of plaque, regulate blood sugar, prevent blood clots, reduce yeast infections and help prevent cancer. Its strongest affinities are for the liver, blood, cardiovascular system, and immune system. Garlic contains protein, fiber, potassium, phosphorous, calcium, sodium, vitamin A, thiamine, niacin, taurine, zinc, riboflavin, and many other nutritive compounds. We have several recipes in our line that are made with a very small quantity of garlic, as well as a selection of recipes that are garlic-free.

Question:	how is htis stored
Answer:	This food really helped my beagle/corgi mix reach a healthy weight, and maintain it. Beagles and corgis are both known to get lazy and gain weight quickly, which she did, but after putting her on this food she got down to her optimal weight and has stayed there. She is a 25 lb. dog and gets 1/3 C. (dry measured) twice per day.
