Guest Tuesday Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 Tried this food and my dogs, no matter what I did, would not touch it. And as a rule, my hounds are not finicky eaters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest greyaspet Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 Sounds a lot like Dr Harvey's that I feed my dogs but Dr Harvey's has more veggies and the couple of products I looked at from Sojo I wasn't impressed with and it is much more costly than Dr Harvey's.

Blaidd49 Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 Assuming it is the Sojos grain free, I like it as a supplement to raw meat but find in general that Honest Kitchen Preference is better digested. I still like to ring the changes occasionally. Pam QC Canada anyone gives this to your hound?

seeh2o Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 As I recall, Carl did have some pretty hefty poops on it. Poor Claire, her's are pretty soft anyway, so you can imagine what it did to hers!

Guest brit1 Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 Be aware that they (Sojos)import their fruits and veggies from China! I had emailed them regarding their products and thats how I found out. Apparently Dr Harvey products do not import. Brit anyone gives this to your hound?

Sojos dog food is not listed on the FDA's pet food recall website, and has not been involved in any recent recalls. I search the web and found the compagny respond to an e-mail about the origin of their products: "Thanks for considering Sojos and for your question. We are a Minnesota company that was started in 1985. We do all of our own baking, freeze drying, milling and processing in our NE Minneapolis facility. I wish it was possible to source all of our ingredients from the Midwest, but we use many exotic ingredients that make that impossible. We source everything that we can domestically and locally when possible. But certain ingredients, namely dried vegetable dices are impossible to source from the US. For example, 99.9% of all of the dried celery dices in the world come from China. And there are other vegetables and spices that simply aren’t grown in the US. There are US importers that resell ingredients sourced overseas and some pet food companies buy from these “middle men” and then claim that their ingredients are domestic. But we strive to be a completely transparent company and we have nothing to hide or to be ashamed of. When we buy ingredients from Asian sources, we have a representative on the ground inspecting not only the factory but the finished product to ensure that we’re getting the finest human-quality ingredients. This is the same stuff found in “people food” at the grocery store like soup mixes, stuffing mix, trail mix, etc. No feed ingredients. No by-products. No artificial preservatives, flavors, or colors. As far as pesticides go, you could mention that we’re actually at somewhat of an advantage because our dried celery and apples are imported. The FDA has very strict rules regarding pesticide levels in imported products. For that reason, all ingredients are tested for pesticides before being shipped to us. Domestic growers don’t have that extra testing step because the products are already in the US." Quote Our first greyhound, Tuffy: You will always be there with us my angel!
