Reviews

Excellent quality and so easy to prepare!

"We’ve been feeding The Honest Kitchen Wholemade Grain Free Beef to Lyla and Ghost, and it’s been such a great addition to their meals. The transition was smooth, and they were excited from the very first bowl. I love how easy it is to prepare—just add warm water and it’s ready in minutes. It has a fresh smell, and you can actually see the quality of the ingredients. The extra hydration is a huge plus, especially living in Miami where it’s hot most of the year. It gives me peace of mind knowing they’re getting a wholesome, human-grade meal that’s both nutritious and delicious. Their bowls are always spotless, and mealtime has become their favorite part of the day. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a high-quality food that’s convenient and made with ingredients you can trust! 🐶❤️"

Awesome food

"My picky boy loves his dehydrated food,I have the beef and the fish for variety of flavors. He grew up with cats so he thinks he needs to be as picky as them lol."

Rachel M. (5/5)

Best Food Ever!!

"This is the best dog food I have ever given my doggie. It smells so good I almost want to take a bite lol. My dog goes crazy for this food, absolutely crazy!"

Amy k. (5/5)

My dogs love it

"I have tried grain free and beef with grain and hands-down the grain free beef formula is the best. I feel that it has more protein than the formula with grains . My dogs love it. This is high-quality dog food and when you add water it does make substantially more and it is very thick. I like to add some veggies like celery, green beans or apple as a topper. It is definitely worth the price."

Victoria W. (5/5)

Wholemade Grain Free Beef

"I am switching from the Wholemade Chicken Grain Free recipe to the Wholemade Grain Free Beef not because there were any blatant issues, but my dog licks her legs and paws and my granddog has issues with Chicken and Turkey, so I thought I'd switch to the beef to see if there were a difference. I'm transitioning her now and she seems fine so far. I'm on 1/2 Chicken & 1/2 Beef at this point. Will be all beef in about a week."

Susan S. (5/5)

Dogs LOVE-Dogs APPROVE

"I have multiple dogs (aged between 2-10 years old as well as 60-90lbs each) with allergies and every food has things they don’t like. Usually put food down and they turn their nose to it but Honest Kitchen…I put their bowl down and every day they eat every bite which tells me A LOT! Buying from the website saves you a little money each time which adds up so I do like that as well. A bit pricey but quality costs money and other brands add a bunch of trash in their food. Great to look at the ingredients and be able to pronounce them all!"

Jen B. (5/5)

"My dog wouldn’t come within 10 feet of his dish with this stuff in it. Needless to say, it’s been returned."

Great Health is Longevity

"Dogs need beef, that's a fact. This food also has healthy fruits and veggies to support gut health which supports their entire body inside and out. I will continue feeding THE HONEST KITCHEN DOG FOOD because it's just the right thing to do. A healthy dog is a happy dog and that's a big deal."

Cynthia A. (5/5)

So convenient

"It has all the same ingredients I used in my own recipe so its been saving me a lot of time."

"My dogs LOVE this food. My one is such a picky eater, too."

Q&A

Hi, do you use flat leaf parsley or curly parsley in grain free beef dog food? Thanks.
Hi there, Thanks for reaching out! We use curly parsley for any recipes that include parsley. I hope this helps! All the best,
I have a rescue dog that is allergic to chicken, turkey, rice, and corn. I was feeding raw, but since you are what you eat, the beef was from cows that had been fed with corn and he had a horrible allergic reaction. Is the beef in this from grass-fed cows or is it hydrolyzed? Thank you!
Hi Barbara, A portion of our beef is range/ grass fed and the remainder are fed a grain based diet. Our beef meat is free of added hormones and antibiotics. We hope to transition to a steady supply of grass-fed beef in the future, and our partnership with a pastured beef from a ranch on the midwestern Prairie is an important step towards this goal. Hope this helps!
We currently mix dry food with 1 TB of probiotic yogurt and a spoonful of wet food "topper". Can we sprinkle the dehydrated on and mix with the yogurt instead of using water... and eliminate the "topper"?
Hi Elaine, Thank you for reaching out to The Honest Kitchen. I hope you are doing well. Yes, you can use our dehydrated recipes as a topper. We are big fans of being creative with your dog's food. Please let me know if you have any other concerns. All the best,
How much copper is in this in mg/Kg ? My dog has a gene for copper storeage disease and i watch the amount of copper i feed her
Hi Candy, Thanks for reaching out to us! Typically, we provide nutrient profiles for each recipe on our website, however, we're currently undergoing site maintenance, so they're temporarily unavailable this way. Sorry for the inconvenience. Here's a direct link to the database that stores the nutrient profiles for all of our recipes: https://app.salsify.com/catalogs/96cad16f-6a58-4436-a580-c1eec8771b3f/products?filter=%3D&page=1 I hope this helps! Please let us know if we can do anything else for you. Best,
I have a bag of the dehydrated chicken grain free that I forgot about. I purchased it on Thrive 2021. Is it still good?
Hi Shannon, Our dehydrated recipes will have a "best by" date that reflects 15 months from the date of production - for our Base Mixes and Clusters recipes, 18 months. We can only guarantee the quality and freshness of our foods up to the "best by" date printed on the packaging and do not recommend feeding past this time. I hope this helps.

Frequently Asked Questions

Each pound of dehydrated food equates to about 4 dry cups of food.

Find your dog's daily feeding amount using the feeding guidelines.

Divide that amount by the total dry cups in your chosen box (see below).

2 lb box = 8 dry cups
4 lb box = 16 dry cups
7 lb box = 28 dry cups
10 lb box = 40 dry cups

Example:

A 30 lb dog with an average activity level is recommended 1 dry cup per day.

If you purchase a 10 lb box (40 dry cups), it will last 40 days.

Yes! Dehydrated food is great as a complete meal, topper to your dog's favorite dry food or used with enrichment toys like lick mats.

While you can use as much or as little as you'd like, we recommend mixing half of the suggested serving of your dog's dry food with half the suggested serving of dehydrated food. Adjust as needed to avoid overfeeding.
