JustFoodForDogs Chicken & White Rice Fresh Frozen (Small Box)

Why it is listed

Buy this when you want a fresh-frozen box with a public dollar amount and an AAFCO sentence you can read without a quiz. Still a freezer product. Still not kibble money. Rx JustFoodForDogs diets are a different row we did not rank here.

Cons

• $76.99 for 7.8 lb is a real listed price and is not a cheap kibble bag. First-order 50% off is a promo, not the ongoing price. Vet Support / prescribed lines are a different aisle — this row is the OTC Chicken & Rice fresh box.
• Company also sells cat meals at kitchens; this SKU is the dog Chicken & Rice recipe. ‘#1 vet-recommended’ on the homepage is marketing.
• Needs freezer space. Slow transition. We are not veterinarians.
