Doggy gravy - Good or bad?

Shadowkins · 10-15-2005, 07:21 AM

I was in the supermarket the other day and noticed in the pet section a bottled gravy to put in the kibbles ( can't remember the name off hand)
I was just curious if anyone has tried this gravy. Is its okay to use ?

When I adopted Joules, the shelter gave me some samples of it and some sample dog food (Iams of course). I gave it to her and she loved it! Of course this is back when I thought all dog food was created equal and people who made dog food loved animals.

I have to admit, I still have the samples (hey, they were FREE) but most of the time I forget I have them when I am looking for a treat.
