How do you make the gravy?

Add warm water to the kibble and stir. The kibble softens and the liquid thickens into a gravy. You can also serve it dry.

Is this for puppies or adult dogs?

It is an adult dog food. Puppies and pregnant or nursing dogs have different nutritional needs, so check with your vet before feeding it to them.

How much should I feed my dog?

Follow the feeding guide on the bag, which is based on your dog's weight. Adjust for activity level and treats, and transition gradually over about a week.

Does it contain beef?

Beef is the flavor, but the recipe uses meat and bone meal and grains rather than whole beef as the main ingredient. Read the ingredient panel if your dog has sensitivities.

How should I store the bag?

Keep it sealed in a cool, dry place. Once opened, the kibble can go stale, so transfer it to an airtight container if your dog eats slowly.

No. The recipe is grain-based, so it is not suitable for dogs on a grain-free diet.

Our take on the Gravy Train Beefy Classic Dry Dog Food, 13 lb. Bag

Gravy Train Beefy Classic is an adult dry dog food built around a beef flavor that turns into a gravy when you add warm water. You can serve it as plain kibble or as a gravy-soaked meal, which makes it easy to tempt picky eaters. It is one of the cheaper mainstream options, and its ingredient list is grain-heavy with beef flavor rather than whole meat high on the list. Owners who feed it tend to value the taste appeal and the value; shoppers comparing against premium kibbles should weigh the thinner protein content and the added colors and flavors.
