Best Halo Spot's Stew Natural Dry Dog Food, Puppy, Wholesome Chicken Deals

Customer Ratings:

I love that Halo has wholesome ingredients but it did not agree with my Cavalier King Charles Spaniel puppy. I gradually introduced Halo mixing it with his previous food (cheap, very unhealthy Beneful)over the span of a month and his stools were consistently soft. Every once in awhile he would have a "normal" stool but for the most part either had soft stools and occasional liquid diarrhea. I kept him on the food for 3 months, hoping that his system would get used to it but never did. I encourage anyone else who is trying new foods and their dog's stool does not become normal within a couple of weeks to change foods because the ongoing soft stools led to another issue for my dog.

Because he had soft stools for a long time we went to the vet to get him tested for worms, other potential issues and the results came back normal except for his anal glands. Apparently a dog's individual scent comes from the glands on their butt (that is why dogs sniff each other there). The scent is in a brown liquid that comes out of the anal glands on their butt every time they defecate. However, if they have soft stool on a regular basis, that liquid is not pushed out by an otherwise normal stool and the glands can become backed up/clogged causing all kinds of other issues that if not taken care of could need surgery. A sign that your dog might be clogged is if they scooch their butt on the floor. Thankfully his was not to the point of needing surgery and the vet was easily able to get the liquid out (which some of it had dried up and formed hard chunks that caused pain and irritation). I only mention this in case this information could be potentially helpful to any of my fellow pet parents. :)

After trying Halo, Wellness, Organix, boiled chicken and rice, plain ground beef and rice (all high quality foods), I decided to try him on a hypoallergenic food and he has had consistently normal stools on a regular basis ever since!!! We suspect that he may have had stomach irritation with the meats chicken and beef.

The food that I currently have him on is Nature's Variety Instinct Duck & Turkey meal formula. He doesn't like the taste of the food as much as the others so we mix each meal with a small amount of natures variety instinct canned duck formula and he loves it. Although canned foods can be just as high quality as dry foods as far as quality ingredients go, they can cause tarter build-up on the teeth more quickly if you are not brushing the dogs teeth on a regular basis.

Since Nature's Variety brand is considered hypoallergenic we introduced him to the salmon formula (mixing a very small amount in with his duck food) and it caused soft stool so if your dog has a sensitive stomach...try duck!

Halo dog food makes my dog's coat shine. I can feed less because of the higher protein content so it really saves money in the long run. It is also easier on his digestion.

Honestly, I can't say this product is better than any other dog food since my dogs will basically eat anything like little goats. However, they love it and as long as they are happy I am happy. It was recommended by the breeder I got my last puppy from.

Honest reviews on Halo Spot's Stew Natural Dry Dog Food, Puppy, Wholesome Chicken

Every dog I've ever had loves Halo Spot's Stew. My most recent puppy wants nothing to do with it. I spent a fortune on two bags and now if I want him to eat it, I have to mix it with cottage cheese ever few days to deceive him.

It's an excellent dog food. Very healthy. Problem is my dog sniffs it and walks away. He liked it for a two months and now won't touch it!
