#Chewyinfluencer What Molly Wants is What Molly Gets





This is Molly and she is a good girl. I cannot ask for a better sister than her because she is fun but mostly lovable. Unless she doesn't want to be. Then all bets are off as to how she will act. But mostly, she is a good girl.

She is also a lot more delicate than me. Part of this is her breed mix - Maltese we know for sure. It makes her a little more delicate and particular especially when it comes to FOOD. Actually, that is the main point I am making here. She is PARTICULAR ABOUT HER FOOD!!! She won't just eat a comestible because it IS comestible. Oh no. She needs to like the SMELL. She needs to like the SHAPE. She needs to like the TEXTURE.

THIS is what makes Molly a good test subject. Unlike me, she won't eat anything. Unlike ME, she won't consider any kind of food "good" just because it is food. She SCRUTINIZES the Chewy.com monthly newsletter every time looking for the RIGHT item to review. Snacks - meh. . . Vitamins - nah . . . Chewie Bones - nope (not enough teeth) . . . can you envision what I am saying? This month - SEPTEMBER - she decided to try a new (to her) canned food by Purina: Pro Plan Savor Adult Grain-free Chicken & Carrots Entree



The PLUS for her is the grain-free formula and the addition of carrots. She likes carrots but cannot crunch them very well any more. This food seemed to be the answer to her DILEMMA.

So we ordered the food for her and it arrived IN TWO DAYS!!! Gotta love Chewy.com and their swift deliveries. Even back in the day when it was less than swift, it was always reasonable and welcome. 

Pugsonally, I could sit here all
day waiting for a package from
CHEWY.COM

So about the food. Molly LOVES it. Well, mostly she LOVES it. She tires of it about halfway down the can and refuses to eat it at all. So the human SERVANTS have to come up with something ELSE for a day or two and then REINTRODUCE the food to her. This happens every time we get food from a large can. ME? I'll eat it no prob. Molly goes "MEH!!"

Here's what she LIKES about Purina Pro Plan Savor Adult Grain-free Chicken & Carrots:

  1. No Grains to upset her tummy or give her itchies
  2. Lotsa Protein, Vitamins, and Minerals so she doesn't have to POP A PILL
  3. It's a complete diet FULL of real meat and real vegetables . . . Enough Said
  4. Nothing artificial, food-wise, to upset the balance of this delicate FLOWER of a girl
  5. Relatively low calorie to maintain her SVELTE form and still keep her muscles and joints ready for running
This is EXACTLY what Purina ProPlan Savor Adult Grain-free Chicken & Carrots LOOKS like! See the bits of cooked carrot? No mistaking that for anything else! And the little pebbles of cooked chicken? It is just the right size for Molly to NIBBLE. Because THAT is exactly how she eats - she NIBBLES and picks out tiny bites and. . .
It DRIVES me CRAZY.

But this review is NOT about me.


After eating this food for 3 weeks, Molly has not changed a lot other than running to the dinner area and begging like there is no tomorrow to be fed. She has plenty of energy and is not biting or scratching any more (or less) than usual. After spending most of the summer dealing with Moose and Pablo, I can say FOR A FACT that girl dogs scratch a lot less than boy dogs. But that is neither here nor there.

We like the Purina Pro Plan food and if it came in smaller cans it would be better for Molly. She is just odd that way.

We give this food an EIGHT PAWS UP approval - we hold off on a SEAL of APPROVAL because of the can issue.
