Freshpet Inc (FRPT)

Didn't know Freshpet was public, found out via the website.

I've been feeding my 4 yr old lab/greyhound mix and 13 yr old golden retriever freshpet for about a month. It's been quite the experience. The 13 yr olds appetite is back after months of not eating. The 4 yr old is twice as excited about eating as before.

The food actually smells good, like a herby smell. Some dog foods look and smell like something you can't recognize, but it's "dog food". I can clearly see, unmistakably the white chicken breast meat and some of the what I presume to be dried fruit.

Cost is the downside. It's rather expensive when you're used to cheap generic dog foods. Even premium brands such as blue buffalo would be a tremendous savings over freshpet.

Just sharing. I have zero motive and no position, although I might down the road.
