Food Loving Dog with Pancreatitis

I eventually made the switch to raw about a year or so ago and I didn’t think a dog that loves food as much as mine could like food more. Originally we were with a different brand, but Hershey came down with pancreatitis and a switch to a lower fat food needed to happen. We […]

Can Dogs Eat Apples? What You Need to Know

Apples are a great healthy snack for humans, but can dogs eat apples? They certainly can be! Apples are a great source of dietary fiber, vitamins (like vitamin A and C), and antioxidants. They are low in calories but high in sugar, so it is best to keep apples as a snack rather than a […]

Dog with a Sensitive Stomach

Tato loves it! He gets excited and would let you know to hurry up. He gets bored easily but never with Steve’s Real Food. I love all the ingredients in the food and the quality is always on par. I noticed his poop is always in good form. His tummy is sensitive so sometimes certain […]

Pitbull Mix with Skin Issues and Allergies

I adopted Karl the shelter in 2015 not knowing a lot about canine nutrition. He is a Pitbull mix and started suffering a lot from skin issues and allergies while eating a dry kibble diet. We struggled for years with these issues, constantly taking him to the vet for antibiotics and Apoquel. The vet suggested […]

Puppy With Ear Infections

When I got Stella from the rescue as a puppy she had constant ear infections. Always scratching chewing, and after a couple weeks her skin started breaking out all over her stomach.

When Jasper was a puppy he suffered from IBS, he would consistently have loose stools. Our vet had told our family that he would most likely be on a special prescription dry food diet and medication for IBS the rest of his life. I had met Jasper when he was around 1 yr old and […]

Koda the Police Dog

Where do I begin… Koda is a dual purpose police K9 with many jobs including keeping me sane. Police work, as many know, is very stressful and it’s a lot at stake. Having your best friend with you is the greatest gift I could ever ask for! Koda has experienced MANY food issues leading to […]

Nova’s Allergies

My 4 year old Pug has been on Steve’s for about one year now. She has many environmental and food allergies. I went through 7 different kibble brands from LID, grain-in, grain free, novelty protein and everything either made her very red/itchy, or gave her GI issues (vomiting, bloating, diarrhea). Since I switched her to […]

Maple the Cattle Dog Mix

Maple is an 11 month old cattle dog mix. When we first brought her home, she decided she wanted nothing to do with dry, store-bought kibble. Our vet had deemed her underweight and we started her on a journey of feeding alternative puppy food. We started with something I nickednamed “bologna for dogs” because it […]
