Today on the blog Bruin is reviewing Sojos Raw Dog Food Mix - Lamb Recipe.
This is our first experience with raw food, gently freeze dried meat and mixes. We are used to the good ol' crunchy kibble that you just pour into a bowl, so mom was eager to mix it up with water and see what Bruin thought of it.
This 2 lb bag of mix makes 10 lbs. of food!
As you can see above, the ingredient list is quite impressive.
As much as mom loves what's in the food and that it's made in the USA, she is just as happy with what's NOT in the food.
No GMO's, grains, soy, by-products, fillers, preservatives, artificial colors or flavors and no added sugar or salt.
After opening the bag we were pleasantly surprised by a little bag of treats.
Remember, this bag is just the mix, you have to add water and let it soak for at least 15 minutes to fully activate the nutrients and enzymes.
They have an easy to follow feeding chart on the back of the bag with your dog's weight and their activity level so you know the right amount to feed your dog.
Here it is after we added 3 3/4 cups water to 2 1/2 cups mix.
Bruin couldn't understand why he had to wait so long for the taste-test or why he had to sit on that silly chair! Lol
Yup, that's me in the background wondering why I wasn't on the other side of the gate...
Finally, mom dished some out for me and it's time for the good stuff, but not before she gets a shot of the food after it has soaked...
First the look-test...
Then the sniff-test...
Lastly, the taste-test...
Bruin thoroughly enjoyed licking all the liquid first and then eating what was left. He certainly didn't mind that it wasn't his usually crunchy kibble that he tends to inhale whole.
This was definitely a nice change, it is recommended on the package to gradually transition your dog to this food over 7-10 days.
This made a big batch which can be kept in the fridge up to four days.
Mom said she will definitely continue to give Bruin a little bit each day and if he continues to enjoy it she will let Maggie and I have a try of our own.
