Something New From Chewy

Most of the time when the Chewy review selections come along, I pick something I'm familiar with and have been meaning to try or else something that we've tried before and absolutely love. This month was very different. We've been having trouble feeding Morgan because in her little old dog confusion she never wants to eat the same thing two days in a row. Even if she decides she loves her dinner and cleans the bowl, if we try to give it to her the next day, she'll sniff it and walk away.

This month one of the selections was a dog food I'd never heard of before, Weruva. Of course I had to google it and read as much as I could about it before ordering. Here's what I learned. The name is a combination of the names of the owner's pets.  My red flags went up when I read that they make their food in Thailand. I read lots of reviews and they were good. They have very strict manufacturing guides and lots of oversight. The food is made in a human food facility. They have never had a recall.
What to do?? Thailand was the thing that was holding me back, but I decided to go for it. Then I eliminated all the varieties made with chicken, because I don't trust chicken from that part of the world. I love feeding my pups fish but I also eliminated the fish varieties because of irradiation from the waters around Japan. That left me with Steak Frites with Beef, Pumpkin and Sweet Potatoes in Gravy.

When I opened the first can I was surprised. Of all the many dog foods I've served over the years, this looked the most appealing. It looked like stew and had huge chunks of beef. It smelled good and I was eager to see what Morgan thought about it.
 Morgan loves it. She's been eating it every day since it arrived. She actually eats a whole can each day, sometimes mixed with kibble and sometimes from the spoon.
Now the problem is that it's too expensive to serve daily and I'm hoping I can interest Morgan in another food before my supply runs out. Morgan and I highly recommend Weruva Steak Frites.

That does look yummy. If it tempts Morgan and keeps her happy, maybe you should invest in more.

It would be great if you could mix it with another food

I'm going to be honest- I never realized it was made in Thailand. We've bought some Weruva cans in the past and I've always been highly impressed. I wonder if they recently switched facilities or if I just never noticed (which is odd, I know... lol). So glad Morgan loves it!

It's great that you've found something Morgan will eat, even if you only have a few days' supply. It's great that you found something different to try!

Could you stretch it with kibble mixed in? We're hopeful that you'll be able to pickup a few more cans.
