What’s in your dog food pyramid? Two months ago we added Bravo® Canine Cafe™ Dinners to our rotation diet and are loving it! I introduced you to these tasty dinners back in March, and last month I talked about the Fricassee dinners. In my prior posts, I didn’t have the chicken recipes, but I have since received and tried them. Today I will be talking about the chicken dinners and summing up what my sisters and I like about Bravo Canine Cafe Dinners.
Bravo has their slogan “make good happen®” for good reason! Bravo is a family owned business located in Connecticut. They were pioneers in raw pet food in 2002, when then introduced their Bravo Blends Line. Today they offer over 125 different dog and cat products, all made from the finest, most nutritious ingredients such as antibiotic-free poultry, responsibly harvested fish and select cuts of meat. All the foods are processed following strict food safety guidelines! Bravo has been expanding their varieties to help more pet parents give their pets the very best, without sacrificing quality!
I had a case of the Canine Cafe Chicken & Liver Dinner and a case of the Chicken Fricassee delivered last month. I do like chicken a lot, and was eager to give this food a try! As with the other varieties, the chicken dinners and fricassees are 100% nutritionally complete, are grain and gluten free, and have chicken as the number one ingredient.
The chicken isn’t much different in looks from the other varieties I already had tried. The Chicken & Liver Dinner is a soft, ground wet food, and the Fricassee is in a nice gravy. As demonstrated, both recipes are tasty enough to eat right out of the can!
My sisters and I have all been eating the Bravo Canine Cafe Dinners for the past two months, but each of us has a different or favorite way of eating them. We’ve had a lot of food to go through, but it hasn’t been a problem for us at all!
Katie has benefited quite a bit from the Canine Cafe Dinners, especially the Fricassees. These days she doesn’t have much of an appetite and has been losing weight. We have started decreasing her kibble and adding more of the Fricassee to her bowl of kibble to try to get her to eat more and it has worked fairly well. She enjoys the gravy and the dry food soaking up some of the gravy as well. Once and a while, we let her eat right out of the can, just to get her to eat. She likes all three varieties equally. Katie does enjoy the meat and poultry dinners too, but prefers Fricassee.
As for me, I love them all. I could eat this food all day every day! I’m a pretty picky eater, but I don’t pick at Bravo Canine Cafe at all! Mom says I’m a sorter. I like to pick stuff out of my bowl and put it on the floor for later, and don’t like things mixed into my kibble. This being said, I like a nice, big dollop of Bravo Canine Cafe on top of my kibble. I enjoy the Fricassee varieties, but I prefer the dinners so it doesn’t mess up my kibble! I also take pills sometimes. The dinners make it super simple as Mom puts the pill in the middle of the dollop, and folds it over the pill. I wolf it right down.
Bailie is our most “dog like” dog. She loves to eat, and eats pretty much anything. Bailie also loves food puzzles and her Kongs and stuffed bone. She gets some Canine Cafe with her kibble at mealtime, but her favorite way to eat all the Canine Cafe varieties is stuffed in her Kong or bone, room temperature, or frozen. The Kongs with Fricassee in them have to be frozen, the dinners do not. If Mom knows Bailie will be getting a Kong or stuffed bone, she simply cuts back on Bailie’s mealtime portion and gives her the stuffed item. Bailie cleans those babies out like they went through the dishwasher. You can see in the photo how much she enjoys helping out with the stuffing part too!
Bravo also has a a line of Feline Cafe™ Dinners! Someone needs to tell cat bro Bert about this! The food is so good, we constantly find him stealing from the cans we have opened for us dogs!
Now for the best news of all! Bravo has once again graciously offered to give one lucky winner a case of Bravo Canine Cafe Dinners, the variety of the winner’s choice!

We also love Bravo! Haven’t tried the cat food, but we definitely will. Ruby says she would like to try the Fricassee!
We haven’t had the cat food either, but as you could see, the cat has had the dog food!
I love Bravo treats but Katie can Bly eat venision. The should mak venision dog food. I would buy in a minute ,
That is a tough one. Poor Katie!
we haven’t tried their can food but we have their freeze dried raw food with our dinner every night – we totally love love love our Bravo
We love the wet food, and I do have some freeze dried we received recently but have not yet tried out.
Sounds like a like some good food
Lily & Edward
It is. We really love it and it is good for us!
I’m with Katie and Bert… it looks so tasty I would eat it directly from the can :o)
Mom never can leave a can unattended for even a second, or someone has their head in it around here!
That’s quite a stash for one lucky winner!
Well, I have all six cases, but even one case is a pretty great deal I think.
I am always looking for the healthiest foods for Jake and Sam. I went to the Bravo Pet Foods site and read the ingredients in the Canine Cafe Dinners and was amazed. They were not stuffed with fillers and had really good ingredients–to say the least, I was impressed. I would love to try this pet food for Jake and Sam as they deserve the best. I also would love to try the Feline Cafe Dinners for Chester–he is 17 years old and definitely needs the best that I can give him.
Bravo really specializes in raw, and this is something new, so we expected it to be genuinely good. Despite being so good for us, it is super tasty as well!
WE have not had BRAVO CANNED foodables… butt would be interested in trying the CHICKEN FLAVOR.. We like Chicken … A LOT…. butt we have never had it RAW…
I like the chicken too. My favorite variety is, of course, the wabbit, but chicken is tasty too.
I’m interested in trying Bravo Canine Cafe dinners for our dogs because they’re 100% nutritionally complete and grain free.
Exactly right. Healthy and tasty!
I love how you all have your different favorite ways of eating. We’ve started adding things to the dogs’ kibble, and they really enjoy it. I like to do the homemade thing, but don’t always have time, so having high quality canned dog food on hand is a must! These sound great.
They really are tasty and a nice variety as well.
It looks like you all were pretty pleased with the Bravo!
We are, and so is cat bro Bert!
Locked, stocked and ready to rock. Enjoy!
If you guys ever experience a food shortage, you know where to come 😉
Yes as I am at a loss food wise with Layla lately
Katie is our tough eater these days, but if we keep changing up the flavors it seems to help.
It looks tasty! Mr. N enjoys some warmed up canned food when he comes back from walks all shivering and wet!
Wow! We have never had it warm, just room temp, right out of the fridge, or frozen. I guess we are true Minnesota dogs.
Bravo makes a really good food. i have used their raw food before. Thus i know that my girls would love the canned food. i would choose the turkey fricassee or the beef, turkey and liver dinners. i would chose the rabbit, if it did not have the duck in it. i think duck is too high in fat.
All their foods are wonderful I love the rabbit variety, even with the duck, but we are all pretty healthy and don’t have food or weight issues.
Sounds like a pawesome food! Go, Bert, GO!!
Geez, that cat has so many friends!
We love Bravo food too. We would love to win so that we could try the rabbit! Woot Woot!!
A guy definitely after my heart 😉 The rabbit is the best in my opinion. Good luck my dear Bentley!
It sure looks like this is working great for you all!!
Smileys!
Dory, Jakey, Arty & Bilbo
It is. We all love it for different reasons!
I think Bravo looks like it is full of healthy and tasty ingredients. I have a few older dogs that only eat can food and would love to win it for them to try.
Our senior sister Katie really enjoys it. She likes her kibble too, but this keeps her eating a bit better.
I love my furbabies and want to do what’s best for them. I like that this dog food is high-quality and made in the US. I’m sure my pups would love it!
I know they would love it. I’m real picky, but I love all six varieties.
As a bona fide senior now, I think Sam would love to enjoy canned selections in his food pyramid.
I think he would. Katie sure does, and it keeps her eating more than if she only has her kibble.
Some great stuff in there, glad you like it Bert, your so handsome.
That Bert will eat anything!
my ellie would love to try the chicken and liver! she eats kibbles during the day but at night we like to give her a little something special for dinner!
Sounds like a good plan! Good luck to you!
I would love to win because they look so good for dogs! 🙂
They are. Bravo makes wonderful food and treats.
I have a few picky eaters and I think they would love this food too. It looks delicious!
I’m picky and I love it!
My dog prefers wet food and I love that it’s made with real meat or poultry!
Bravo makes amazing food and treats and healthy too. I know your dog would love the Canine Cafe.
That food looks super yummy. We could have used some of that to give Thunder his 8 giant antibiotics a day plus the Duramaxx after his neuter surgery. We really had to disguise those darn pills.
If it works on me, it would work on him! The flavor hides everything!
these look yummy! i would love to try the chicken and liver!!
Good luck to you. Your dog would love it.
It looks like top quality food. I like the idea of being able to put it in a kong too.
It works great in the Kong…Bailie is nuts for it!
We’re always on the lookout for healthy choices for our dog. Your food looks like it has everything we’re looking for, I know our dog would just love to try it out. The rabbit looks especially yummy.
Rabbit is always our favorite around here, but all six flavors are totally yummy!
