Re: Dry Dog food whats the best out there ? ................

Hi again..

dont know if this helps, but before we got our "spuddy" I was frantic on reading up on what to feed him, and came across many many dog experts on youtube talking about doggy nutrition and what goes into various foods..

The one thing they all had in common, I found, was to avoid anything that had "derivatives" in it, and when I then checked various food types, and had a look at the ingredients on them closely, pedigree came out as having (What I consider) to be some of the cheapest, inedible ingredients, and contained derivatives, instead of actual "meal" (meaning meat from what I learned)

since we bought spuddy home in Nov 08, he was on Nutro puppy, but used to do a #2 up to 6 times a day, and never anything solid either, and we got him onto Burns food 4 months ago and within just a few weeks, his #2's went down to 2 or 3 a day, and all are now consistent too, and at more regular times.

In fact, our spuddy has lost some weight since being on the burns food, even though we now give him a Kong every day too, he's dropped about a kilo in 12 weeks....

Have to start feeding him fried mars bars soon if he lose's any more
