JanC did this happen very recently with your friends dog? Like in the past couple of months? My dog was the same (not spoiled though) and did fine on the Evangers til about 2 mo. ago and just plain refused to eat it. When I opened a can of grain free wellness or a very small can of Organix that she ate with no problem. They seem to know better then we if somethings 'off' with the food and steer clear of it.

I just talked to a girl at Evangers.

I told her that friends of mine were telling me that their dogs were refusing to eat the canned food lately when they liked it before this.  I asked her if they had changed anything in their formula.  She said no but from batch to batch there could be minor differences as in moisture or a different type of potato, etc. 

I told her about the green glob in the duck & sweet potato......she asked if I kept it or kept the can w/the batch #.....no & no.  I don't think I have any other cans that I bought at the same time as the other one.......but she did say if I ever find something like that (but hopefully it will never happen again) to call but to save the can & the glob so I can send it to them & they can get a look at it.  She went to talk to the QC guy & he asked the same thing.....what was the batch # & did I still have the glob.  The only other thing she could think of is that maybe it was something left over from a different variety that had just been run through & it was a veggie left over from the previous batch.  Who knows.....but I told her I was hoping that they weren't getting careless. 

In case anybody else is curious, I asked what the difference is with the regular super premium & the hand packed.  It's more expensive but I just wondered what it really means.  She said people actually put the meat or veggies or whatever into the can.....that it's not in a loaf form like regular canned food is.  Now I'm curious & will have to try a can.

So that's the scoop.....over & out.....

I only have 3 cans left and just read this    I will wait and not buy new till I know more..I have been buying stew meat...all I need is my last pet to die

One of my local dog food stores started carrying Evangers around Christmas, and I bought a few cans for the boys for Christmas. All of them devoured it (which isn't much of a change from their normal eating). Since then, I have tried the 100% buffalo, pheasant, duck, rabbit, and venison, all with great success. There has never been a consistency change or anything out of the ordinary with the cans. It helped get Gunner to take his morning dose of Berry Balance when he was on the initial month period. We don't feed canned too often, because of the price, but the next time we have the extra, it'll definitely be on the list of choices.

I've had my dog on Evangers organic turkey w/potatoes & carrots for about 6 months now.  No problems with it, but yesterday I found a dried kernel of corn in a new can.  I thought Evangers was grain free.

I saved the can and the piece.  Does this warrant a call to Evangers to let them know?

Thanks

Just talked with customer service at Evangers about the corn I found in the organic turkey.  She seemed very surprised, said they do not use corn in their products.  Took the lot number, my name, etc.  She was going to notify quality control of this and would get back to me.  She also asked if my dog had gotten sick or had any problem eating this from particular can.  No, there weren't any problems.  But in the future I will be keeping an eye open for anything else unusual.  I'm glad I called them, just hope their quality control isn't slipping.

maybe a piece of corn out of turkeys' gizzard.

Thanks Justme and I will add my last batch of ALL BEEF red labels....he started itching ..as he has been tested for allergies and is NOT allergic to BEEF .I was perplexed....I know he is allergic to soy, chicken and turkey...I hope everyone sees the posts on this order
