i dont understand that potato tomatoe brewers yeast and yucca are all on the dangerous foods list i beleive

tomatoes, potatoes undercooked are dangerous when they are dead-burned but its not anymore
I can assure you that I tried a lot of dry cereal and I had many problems
Profine since I gave my dogs are in great shape

Royal canine (French brand) buys in goods of poor quality and yet everyone gives because they are part of the oldest producer of dry .... in the early royal canine buy quality products and made ​​these dry in a cement mixer but since it became a multi-national who has bought cheaply to make a maximum profit

now I'm advertising for anyone because I'm just a consumer and I hold you just have to know the brand Profine who comes from Canada and I find great

Beet Pulp - not good either

THANK YOU GUYS! Got Tiny on to wainwrights and he absolutely loves it, he doesn't take his nose out of his bowl until it's all gone bless him and he seems a lot calmer and happier for it so just wanted to say THANKS! ><

Great news!
Good to hear Tiny is enjoying his food.

hi is bakers complete a bad food, the breeder is feeding the pup im getting next week on bakers and don't know if i should keep him on it for a while or change it

my bosco was on bakers and the vet and the shops told me its rubbish ill be honest i dont no why,my vet recommended jollies own brand life style which i got and bosco seems to enjoy it a lot more and its a very good price for what it is i compared it to some of the higher priced items in the list and found the ingredients to be more or less the same for half the price

I would change it over gradually, just s abit at a time over a week or 10 days. Bakers is full of additives (colours, flavours), all of which are totally unnecessary for the dog & are there just to make it look 'apetising' to humans. A lot of the additives can make a dog very hyperactive & can cause allergies.

Thank you, what would you suggest is one of the best foods to start him on

I'm not qualified to say! I feed raw, so I don't know a lot about dry food. I've heard that Wainwrights is good (Pets At Home's own brand) and also Royan Canin (expensive) and James Wellbeloved, but others on here are more able to advise on that than me!

Oh, and Fish4Dogs has been praised as well!

It depends on what your price bracket is lol. Royal canine is a good food but is over priced for what it is. The best ones are Orijen, Arden Grange, fish4dogs, pricey but worth it. Less expensive ones are JWB, Wainwrights, Barking heads, again good foods. Anything u can get in the supermarkets is not worth bothering with x

The Wainwrights is what i feed Archie and he loves it

I've got Max on Puppy Iams (he's 8 months), is that any good?

Is the list order after what you recommend the most or just listed as the recommended products..

Because I'm thinking about changing Dino's food, but it's a jungle.

Been thinking about Orijen, Royal Canin Adult Medium, Arion Lamb & Rice, Olivers Adult.

But I know there are many other company's out there, so a little help would be great..

Moving our 2 onto Wainwrights as we speak no issues so far!
