About This Recipe

Time for our honest review... This fresh food DIY recipe is vet approved and healthier than Costco wet dog food. Costco dog food is good, but the highly processed natural of ready-made canned food or dry kibble just can't match the nutrition of fresh Costco ground beef combined with Perfect Dog Food Mix.
