Spot's Stew - Halo Dog Food

I do like to occasionally change up the dogs food, not to much; as I still prefer a salmon formula.  But sometimes a new brand catches my eye.  
Such was the case with Spot's Stew by Halo.  OK, so the name did get me, because a good friend has a rat terrier named Spot.  But when I read the ingredients, I have to say, I was impressed.  Real meat (in this case salmon). No rendered meat or meal from chicken, poultry, lamb, fish or plants.  Since the number one cause of allergies in animals is wheat, corn and soy, I have long steered clear of brands containing those ingredients. Sadly, most brands are very costly, nearing the $20 range for a five pound bag and with two dogs and a couple fosters, it can be cost prohibitive.   A four pound bag of Spot's Stew is about $11 and with a $2 coupon on their website, it gets even better.  


The size of the bites are important too.  Since my dogs are small, I prefer a tiny bite. These are just a bit larger than the circumference of a pencil eraser.  As you can see by the photo, there are bits of carrot and cranberry.  The peas are harder to find.  In addition, if you sign up for their email list, they will give you two FREE cans to try.   

Halo is co-owned by Ellen Degeneres.

  1. There are many dog friendly lodging options, but the city gets very busy in the summer and winter months so uncertainties are handy. Keep in brain a few things when you want to take your dog on an adventure, and you guys will be good to go backpacking with dogs
