Thought she was allergic to Chicken! Senior Dog APPROVED

I have a 13y/o yorkie with a variety of health problems (allergies, frequent UTI's, and most recently pulmonary hypertension). We had thought she was allergic to poultry, so we were only feeding her salmon or fish formulas, but we never knew for sure. We had Harley on RX dry food for a while and tried a variety of toppers, mix-ins etc. to help with her allergies and make sure she was getting some extra yummies when it came to meal time. Her allergies never really seemed to fully get better. When I signed up for Get Real, I anticipated I would keep using it as a topper to mix in with her kibble, but as her allergies started clearing, she was becoming more 'regular'., and she was SO excited for meal-time, I decided to switch to Get Real full feed. AND, best part of all, her allergies totally cleared up even on the chicken & turkey recipes, which makes me think her allergies were mainly environmental, or from something else in her kibble. At 13 years old her allergies have never been better. Also, I love that the veggies are pretty much emulsified into the formula because Harley would typically pick out the protein bits and leave the fruits and veggies un-touched. Thankfully, she chows down on everything and is actually getting the fiber and extra vitamins from the brussel sprouts, cranberries, carrots, sweet potato etc. We recently had to have Harley hospitalized due to her pulmonary hypertension and the ONLY thing she would eat at the ER was her Get Real. That's when I knew I wasn't going back to kibble. #ChewyTeamRated

OBSESSED

We use this as a topper (40%) and my dog devours his food within seconds, licks his bowl clean, and the spoon that scoops it out. He loves all of the flavors! We've noticed his joints don't seem as achy (he just his senior status), and his fur is softer than it's been in YEARS. He has terribly dry skin, and it has improved tremendously. Maxwell is a Get Real fanatic. #chewyteamrated

Food has a lot of water after thawing out

My dogs were ok w the food, not real enthusiastic. My biggest issue was the water after the food is thawed out. I have bought other food like this and never had this issue. I will not be buying it again

Hungry senior raves about delicious dindin

Buck says these 3 flavors are amazing, my mom mixes a bit in my chubby dog food which I’m not keen on. Mom says using 2 teaspoons on 2 of my daily dinners, so the 5oz packs for topping last 5 days of unbelievably delicious meals! Now chubby dog food is fantastic, no more protests from me (Buck)

Switch to Get Real ASAP

Switched from a different brand of food and my dog is obsessed with get real. It’s portioned out perfectly and also has all the ingredients and instructions on each individual packet of food. The way they are packaged for delivery is very impressive as well compared to other companies.

Fragile, aging dog says YUMMMM!

Just got my first order of Get Real and gave some to my older boy. He's almost 13, blind, has arthritis, and just not doing so well. He stopped eating for a few days and I thought Uh oh, we're getting close to the end. Anything he ate had to be handfed to him, and it wasn't much. Last night I gave him his first Get Real meal. He probably ate 1/2 of what he should be in a meal, but he ate it willingly. No handfeeding. I was so happy to see that. I got the variety pack so I'll be offering him a different one today and hope he loves that, too. But so far, so good.

Soupy consistency, odd odor!

All three flavors had the same issues with being soupy, having odd odor and difficult to serve from flimsy container. I was hesitant about feeding this to my senior dog because like Mikey he will eat anything. Fed it to the wildlife on my property. This product needs LOTS of tweaking!!

Superb packaging with a great introductory price

Great Stuff Quick delivery with insulation, dividers, and dry ice Wallet loved the promotional price Can see some chunks of meat and pieces of vegetables in product My boy loved the food served straight and mixed with his standard kibble Peel open packages keep your scissors clean and transfer easily to storage containers Healthy digestion once adjusted Not so great Standard price for subscription is limiting to my budget. Larger quantities are a little cheaper, but take up 25% of my freezer Food appears to be ground beef texture in advertisements, but it is more like a puree with some chunks once thawed. This makes the food reform together in bowl. May not be an issue for longer snouts, but my boxer made a mess around the bowl and on his face. Think baby's first birthday cake! Introduce the food slowly, my boy is not usually sensitive but had a couple accidents and upset belly after the first few Smells like dog food-better than many but doesn't inspire "wow that's real food!" either. Overall, I am very pleased with this product and the buying experience. My boxer loved the food and wasn't quiet about this fact. Due to the consistency of the food and my dogs snout, I'll be using it as an additive/topper instead of a stand alone meal. The standard MSRP subscription price is the only significant barrier to me purchasing again, but Loaf might revolt once this shipment runs out...we shall see!

Ok but.

Was very ground up and not what I expected for “real” food. Unfortunately my puppy will not eat any of the flavours past a small taste.

Great for dogs & humans!

#ChewyTeamRated We're feeding Get Real to both of our dogs and they both love all 3 flavors. Disco in particular gets so excited that he stands on his hind legs to get a sniff of the food before I put his bowl down on the floor. For humans the food is great too because the packages are so easy to work with - they stack well in the freezer, they're easy to open & put back in the fridge & there's very little mess at the end. This product was very well thought out, from the original packaging (most of which can be recycled) to the fast shipping to the QR code with feeding instructions on the package itself. We highly recommend it!

Clean plate club

Maxwell, while food motivated, was unmotivated by his dry food, refusing to eat breakfast until it was almost dinner time. His skin was full of dandruff and he was itchy with aging joints in his new senior status. We started slowly transitioning to Get Real and he would eat immediately. Now we have transitioned to a 50/50 feed of Get Real + dry food, and his fur is noticeably softer, shinier, with significantly less dandruff, he jumps in and out of the car without hesitation or limping, and his energy has increased. Beef is his absolute favorite flavor! We love Get Real! #chewyteamrated

Our Dogs Loved This!

This is our first experience with Get Real dog food. We plan to use this as a topper for both of our dogs for their "dinner". This was a huge hit with them...and I'm not sure what's in it, but they both took a nap after they ate...LOL. Quality is excellent and it came in convenient pre-portioned packages.

She looooves it!

She licks the plastic if there’s any left on the package. I like that it’s made fresh and CLEAN NO PRESERVATIVES INGREDIENTS. My Angels health is the most important thing to me. Food is medicine. No shots or flea meds of any sort other than natural with brewers yeast and coconut oil

Our dogs love all three flavors!

We have been feeding our picky eaters Blue Buffalo and Hill’s Science Diet for years by spoon. We literally had to beg them to eat and follow them around to feed them. Our female even skipped meals!! Then I found Get Real and ordered a 6 week trial deal. We add a few Tablespoons mixed in their other wet food and mix it. Not only are our dogs readily eating EVERY meal, but no more spoon feeding!!! They love all three flavors!!!

High water content

The food will turn into soup texture once thawed, water content is too high. Will not buy again, wish I could return. Worst frozen gentle cooked dog meal ever tried.

You’re better off just making your own. I have no idea what’s in this, but it is not fresh food . DO NOT GET THIS FOOD FOR YOUR DOG . MY DOG HAS SOME WEIRD GROWTH NOW AFTER FEEDING FOR TWO WEEKS

Great Get Real Food for my Picky Eater

The product arrived quickly and was packaged very neatly—off to a great start! The presentation is top-notch, and the portions are just right for my 10-pound pup, Max. So far, he’s tried both the Beef and Turkey recipes, and I was thrilled to see him dive right in on the very first night. The consistency is excellent—moist, with real chunks of meat that are perfectly sized for smaller dogs like Max. He’s a notoriously picky eater, and I’m always looking for ways to keep him interested in his meals. A week in, and he’s still licking the bowl clean at every feeding! Get Real has truly made mealtime enjoyable again—for both of us. Highly recommend!

We love this food!

We got Get Real as part of their first adoption promo. Right away we noticed our dogs poops were better, he had more energy, and loved the taste! We made the mistake of switching brands after to try something for a lower price point.. BIG mistake. Get Real was the only food that didn’t make our dog sick. We will be long time customers!

It really is fresh!!

The food smells good, sometimes I can smell the true ingredients. My dogs stools have never been more regular, even with a switch in kibble. He loves his GetReal so much! My only gripe is the packaging can be super difficult to open, especially for my grandma who is getting older now.

Pure Energy

Our dog Buddy is pretty laid back but since he’s been eating this food his energy has, at very least, doubled! Instead of sleeping or barking, he’s now out chasing anything that moves in the yard. He also initiates play with us more often, hopping around us and wanting to play tug-a-war. He’s been way too serious most of the time. Buddy’s definitely a happier dog. The food has made a big difference in him. We highly recommend giving it a try for a month or two. We think you’ll notice the difference too.

Very high quality food, excellent customer service and my pups love it!

We did extensive research of all options before selecting Get Real. Our pups, English Bulldogs, have been on it for several weeks now and doing very well. They had no tummy upset with the transition off kibble and they ADORE this food! Their internal clock on feeding time has always been good but now they also line up in front of me at meal time as an added reminder (thanks guys). Our vet told me they are both fat (ugh) and we decided a raw, non-processed diet would be the best way to address it. We looked into doing it ourselves (too much hassle) and at virtually all the other raw food options (felt like taking out a 2nd mortgage) and so we signed up for a regular subscription for both Turkey and Beef. I have to say from the smell they seem delicious (i'm unwilling to try) and our pups have confirmed their delight. The service experience has been equally awesome. I had so many questions before, during and after purchase and the chat feature on Chewy was terrific. I go prompt, thorough and helpful responses to each question. We are long time Chewy users and this experience has underscored our satisfaction. I'll check back in a few months for an update on Archie and Tomaso's progress with weight reduction. Finger's crossed!

I had hopes

My dog is a very picky eater, but I tried this new food: I had high hopes. But alas, after filling my freezer so there’s no room for human food, he turns his nose up at this mush. I will cancel any further orders. It may be good for other dogs, but not mine.

Odd odor, soupy consistency.

Because of the issues listed above I was hesitant about feeding this product to my dog. Back to the drawing board for many tweaks as this product is the worst of all fresh foods that I have tried.

One Of My New Favorite Foods

This is a great all around food. I'll start at the beginning. The food is frozen so it will be shipped overnight. They will make sure that it is a day you are available to receive it and put it into the freezer. I was notified when it shipped, was out for delivery with an estimated time then again when it was delivered. The shipping box is designed to hold a special recyclable insulating material to protect the temperature and integrity of the food while being responsible to the environment as well. It is also packed with dry ice. The dry ice is in bags in a separate box to prevent accidental contact by curious pups (or people). There was about 1/3 of the dry ice remaining and all the food was still frozen. The food itself is packed in portion-size plastic pouches with peel open tops. The label has a peel-back feature revealing additional, in depth info. My only complaint, and this is a big one, the tabs on the peel open top are so small and the seal so strong that it is very difficult to get a grip. If it is wet, forget it and I'm strong with a good grip. The food thaws in about 36 hours. The ingredient list is simple and nutritious. This food actually looks and smells like someone took their traditional turkey dinner plate and put it in the food processor. Seriously, it really smells yummy; not like dog food. My dogs liked it immediately and have tolerated it well with good energy and normal, regular poops. Since this food has a high moisture content, it will be easier for people to prevent the incidence of obesity due to overfeeding than with dry foods. The dogs get full with much fewer calories.
