hi everyone im hoping somebody out there can help
we have been trying to give Benson a diet he likes and was giving him tinned Winalot which he always licked the bowl clean but made him very gassy and runny poo all the time, so we was advised to change him to a dry complete diet which we did but have tried a couple now and he soon gets fed up of it and just picks at it. I don't want him missing out of getting the nutrition he needs we are at the moment giving him Bakers complete meaty meal and 1 tin of Butchers loaf 400g but have been told that Butchers is not right good and have read that Webbox chub would be better
I know they is many different foods out there but been on low income would like to give Benson the best we can afford
thanks for reading and any advice would be very much appreciated
thanks Ozzy and Benson

I feed James Wellbeloved, order online and its not so expensive, she usually gobbles it up, but sometimes is uninterested. I know she won't starve though, just being fussy lol!

You can add hot water to make it moist, sometimes I add watery gravy or tuna.

I don't really rate supermarket brands, and find ordering online is cheaper and gives you a wider range Xx

This is a link to some reccomended dry foods

Wainwrights is a good fun if your on a budget and there wet trays are a good quality as well

I wouldn't touch Bakers with a bargepole! sick Too many unnecessary additives.

If you're on a tight budget try getting Wainrights (it's Pets at Home's own brand) - it's a reasonable price & they do dry & tinned or trays.

Don't forget to change over gradually though, over about a week, so you don't upset your dog's tum!
