Dr. Harvey’s Canine Health Miracle Dog Food, Human Grade Dehydrated Base Mix for Dogs with Organic Whole Grains and Vegetables (5 Pounds)

Finally a dog food that I can gear to the needs of each of my dogs!
This post is about my positive experience with a new dog food that I tried called Dr. Harvey’s Miracle Dog Food Pre- mix Health Food.My husband and I adopted another rescue greyhound in late January and he was nothing but skin and bones. He broke his ankle on the track and was retired. You may not know this but racing dogs are fed raw meat. Of course when he went to the rescue group he was switched to a dry kibble food which I could tell was not agreeing with him due to his terrible gas, upset stomach at least 3 times a week and loose stools. I know, TMI! So I wanted to put him on a high quality, high protein, good fat, and low carb diet which is very expensive as carbs and meat by-products (road kill, and all other parts of slaughtered animal other than meat, skin, or organs, such as beaks, feet). Gross right? I tried at least 5 different very expensive dry kibble with no luck. He didn’t gain weight , he continued to have upset stomachs, and horrible gas! He is 3 years old.In the meantime, my 11 year greyhound was recommended to be put on a prescription diet for kidney care where she needs no more than 14% protein, high Omèga-3 and low phosphorus. Well, I put her on that but of course she wouldn’t eat it. And did I mention that I always put either wet dog food or toppers to entice both of them to eat their food. However what ended up happening was that my senior dog wanted the young one’s food and vice versa defeating the purpose of trying to get them in the best health possible.I then heard from a vet online on how to slow cook protein such as beef, chicken, turkey, pork , or eggs with green beans, sweet potatoes, rice, peas with some fish added about twice a week, for their daily meal. This worked for about 2 weeks but it was very time consuming trying to feed two 75 pound dogs. I would have 2 crockpots going at once. The vet said if you slow cooked the food for 20-24 hours, then they could eat the chicken bones because they would just crumble apart but of course, I didn’t trust that and I would find some leg bones and thigh bones which were still hard and splintery so I would have to mush through every thing which was very time consuming. But the worst part was that my young one continued to have upset stomachs and horrible gas and I wasn’t sure if this was best for my senior dog’s kidney issues.So back online I went and found a vet nutritionist who has been selling a dehydrated, human grade dog food for over 20 years that you add hot water to rehydrate and add the amount of protein and oil your dog needs. In the pictures below you can see a list of the ingredients. This way I am able to control the amount of protein that my senior dog needs daily, 8-10 oz, and a good omega-3. I was using canned sardines but at 1.99 a can, which would be a little under half the amount of protein she needs, that was getting a little expensive. My young greyhound gets 20-22 oz of protein a day along with some olive oil. I accomplish this by baking 4-5 chicken leg quarters per day which yields me about 2 lbs of protein per day. I recently switched to marine phytoplankton which is plant based pure omega-3 which is grown or farmed in ocean water so it’s a sustainable supply. You only need a fourth of a teaspoon per day per dog (powder form) mixed in their food.This dog food has truly been a miracle food source for them. They both attack their food like they haven’t eaten for days. They eat twice a day. My young greyhound has not had a stomachache since starting this food, no gas, no licking of his fur or paws and he seems to feel so good. My senior dog is getting the right nutritional balance for kidney issues and absolutely loves her food. She still plays with her squeaky toys every night after eating. They also do zoomies in the back yard every day to get their 3 minute exercise routine done.If you have dogs with particular nutritional needs or you just want your fur baby to eat a great quality food, I highly recommend this food, and no, I am not being paid for this review. It’s been a 6 month struggle to find a good dog food that works for both of them. Arlo and Kibbles give it 5 stars!

Mon chien aime et c’est facile à préparer,

この度は素早い対応、また商品を良心的な価格で販売していただき本当にありがとうございました。うちの犬はアレルギーが多くこのフードしか食べられないので大変助かりました。今後ともよろしくお願いします。

I have been using this food for the past two months on my 2 dogs. One of them has early stage 1 kidney disease, as she is losing protein in her urine. She is on medication, Benezapril, and I am going to wait another month or so and then do another urine test specifically for her protein ration (UPC urine test) and see where we are at. My other dog has no kidney issues, but she is on the same food. They both love it, and I like how easy this food is to prepare. I add specific amounts of cooked protein (chicken thigh or hamburger) and then add the Dr. Harvey’s fish oil. I hope Amazon continues to supply this food, as I live in Canada and ordering directly through Dr. Harvey’s will probably cost more as it has to be shipped to Canada, and then I’ve been told that there will probably be a “customs duty charge” added onto my order. I get worried as every time I order this through Amazon (twice now) as it indicates the item is “in stock”, but then it takes several days until the item is shipped and then I get notice as to when the expected delivery date will be. As another customer mentioned, PLEASE DON’T STOP offering this food as we have little doggies that love it, and most of all need and depend on it 🙂
