Maev's dog food is highly appreciated by dogs, loved for its identifiable ingredients and convenience. It has been noted to improve dogs' energy level, skin and coat, and digestion. However, it is significantly expensive and the company lacks a convenient cancellation process. Some dogs might not like the food, and there are concerns about the food melting into a smelly slop if left uneaten.

We absolutely love Maev! Our dog is not only super finicky but also has a sensitive tummy (I'm guessing they are related!). We were trying to figure out how to address our dog's diet issues and we learned about Maev via a recommendation. 

First things first - this is stuff is totally unprocessed! Which is fabulous. You can see what your pup is getting and the first ingredient is beef. And I trust the company's sourcing (you get what you pay for!). Second, my dog absolutely loves this stuff. He will eat it both frozen and a bit thawed & enjoys is no matter what way it comes. 

Last, everyone's favorite topic: POOP. Poop is totally different on Maev. Smaller and more formed. Given that our pup has had the tummy troubles...picking up poop on a walk has been a puddle-y disaster. But not on Maev! 

The biggest adjustment (which is not actually very big) is portioning out Maev vs.. kibble. But there's been zero adjustment period for our pup. Just only pure happiness. 

My dog is obsessed with this food. So glad that I found Maev and made the switch.

My dog Yoli has been loving Maev for a couple of years now.  She is 9 years old and has turned into a puppy again. She gets super excited every time she hears the bag crumple as it is coming out of the freezer. She no longer has any issues  using stairs anymore, Really incredible watching the Maeve transformation happening. I am excited to see the effects of the supplement bars next!
Thank You Maev!

Maev transformed feeding time for my dog.  He gets so excited for every meal, and is sure to remind me at the exact minute that it is feeding time.  The subscription and fast shipping make it effortless to keep the freezer full of Maev, and it is so easy to feed.  I'm recommending Maev to every dog parent I talk to.

The food is great but it is UNBELIEVABLY EXPENSIVE. My dog goes through 10 bags a month and is 75lbs. That’s $350/month. No thanks. I now buy all the meat/ organs/ protein/ fruits/ veggies etc in bulk for $125 at Costco. If you have an hour each month to prepare the food and freeze it on your own, you are better off.

Pros: 
- Convenient deliver
- My dog really enjoys it and its good for him
Cons:
- Expensive 
- Says cancel anytime but there aren't any instructions on how to cancel and you can't cancel from the site without speaking with a customer service rep.
- It will automatically enroll you in a subscription if you don't pay attention. The site doesn't make it easy to just order one thing.

My dog was not a fan of this food. She picked out bits of it, but left most in the bowl and it melted into a smelly slop. Also, be careful, if your dog doesn't eat everything before you leave for work, they will be left with rotting raw meat all day. When I inquired about a return policy or some kind of refund, I was disappointed to find that this company had zero consideration for how much money I wasted. Would have been nice to at least get a partial refund. I'm out almost $300 and they will simply move on to the next unlucky customer.

Neither of my dogs will touch this food. I called Maev and they said they see this all the time. They recommend that I add diced boiled chicken and they would then eat it then. Flat out scam. Don’t buy it. 

My miniature schnauzer loved the food and I think he was doing well on it.  However, I had to cancel due to constant shipping issues.  In the middle of winter, I had 6 bags in a row arrived completely thawed, no dry ice was ever in the box, plain cardboard box (not insulated as advertised) and the smell of raw meat was so overwhelming I had to dispose of it immediately.  Customer service tried three times to get me my order not ruined, but after the 3rd try I cancelled.  I have had this dog food for months before this with no issue.  Not sure what changed but I can't feed my dog spoiled food. It's a shame.  (No I don't live in an out of the way place with slow delivery either)  I get overnight packages all the times with no issues. 

Despite following instructions, both my dogs had terrible digestive issues with Maev.  When I asked to cancel, they did cancel my subscription but went ahead and processed the next order .  I had reached out prior to the order being processed but somehow they processed anyway and shipped...   Highly expensive order and now I'm stuck with pounds of food that make my dogs ill.  Most rescues won't accept the raw food because of food borne illness.  Definitely not worth it .
