Good Dog Food Brands

As recommended by @JoanneF, we use Gentle - www.gentledogfood.co.uk. Not sure if it's suitable for puppies, but a quick look at the website will tell you. Our dog absolutely loves the stuff, and I can recommend their sample pack too as it contains lots of goodies for the price.

 

Check out the All About Dog Food site: All About Dog Food.co.uk You can put in details of breed, age, weight and budget and it will come up with suggestions. Or you can just list foods in order of their ranking.

 

I use Canagan small breed. A bit more expensive than some brands. As a puppy he started on Royal Canin but the adult version of that led to vomiting. As did every other food we tried. He has a very small amount of Applawse pate added.
Chicken occasionally and sometimes fresh salmon when we can get it

 

By all means reserch and look for the best quality food you can afford but remember your dog has to eat it. When the vet wanted us to put Murphy on a hypoallergenic diet she prescribed a super diet food with a price tag to match ..He turned his nose up and didnt eat for 3 days.

He has never been a fan of dry food so in the end we cut it from his diet altogether and he is on a fresh food diet now which I have to say is working really well. His coat is great, he has gained a bit of weight, his poop problems have cleared up and he isnt itching anymore.
So just because the packet says its good, and the price tag makes you think it should be good, it doesnt always mean its best for your dog.

 

I have a freezer full of premium dog food Harri won't eat and the local rescue centre has inherited bags of kibble from me...

At the moment he's eating the Nature's Menu sachets with great enthusiasm. They wouldn't be my first choice as they do have some grains but they are 4.5* according to all about dog food and he will eat them which is what matters.

He will eat Canagan kibble if it's stuffed into some sort of novelty feeder but not if it's in his food bowl. I'm not too worried as I'm not a great fan of kibble and I'd rather he had a less processed diet but needs must.

 

Many people consider raw feeding to be the best pet food possible. It's what I feed, and personally I would agree with them.

 

Butternut Box is lovely - I switched Harri on to it at 3 months old, he loved it and he really thrived. They have fabulous customer service too.

Harri will just not eat raw (other than chicken wings!)

 

Wow over £3,50 a day for Murphy we buy lamb etc from a dog meat supplier it comes frozen and is much much cheaper than that..

 

I used one of those Lakeland Klippit things to reseal between meals.

 

I've used Lily's Kitchen before I've used Simspsons wet food before, but that was for kitty. Went down really well though.
