Now that you mention it, the lab was quite hyper, thought thatwas just a lab thing tho, but could hav been the food!!

So what is the best puppy food to use, the is being weaned on Eukanuba, but dont want to continue using this as it can lead to him having an iron defficiency.

Re: Arden Grange or James Wellbeloved?

Fed my newfoundland pouppy arden grange up until she was 6 mth and changed to Burns as the protein is lower. But Arden Grange did its job in the puppy months and Burns is fab, i feed both my newfies on burns, they love it so much, oh and their poos don't even smell honest!!

Re: Arden Grange or James Wellbeloved?

We're going to try and feed our Sibe Arden Grange, the breeder was feeding him on a mix of wet and dry Asda Hero puppy food! So we're going to try and change him over and see how he goes.

My friend feeds her golden retriever on Burns and he loves it. I've heard James Welbeloved is good as well, but heard it can upset Sibe's stomach so we're gunna avoid that I think.

Re: Arden Grange or James Wellbeloved?

They are both very good foods. Not much to choose between, but we have always fed James Welbeloved, never had any problems and thoroughly reccommend it.

I have been told to get my Leonberger (5 months old) on to Burns but I'm a bit confused as to which type. Which type are you feeding your Newfies?

We will continue to also feed some Butcher's Tripe and some of the Natures Diet sachets - he loves them!

[quote=Magnus;345658]I have been told to get my Leonberger (5 months old) on to Burns but I'm a bit confused as to which type. Which type are you feeding your Newfies?

Hi Magnus, I always buy three 15kg bags at a time and three different flavours which are: chicken & brown rice, fish & brown rice & vension & brown rice. The reason i went for these was because the protein was the lowest i could find at 18.5%. There are also other flavours to choose from which i will try at some point: duck & B Rice,lamb & brown rice. Or they have a vat free one which is slightly dearer with 24% protein. It really depends what percentage of protein you are looking for. I have surfed every site on the internet and spent a lot of time to find my perfect food for my newfies, and i must say they are looking just lovely on it, shiny coats, etc. I really could not reccommend it enough and i hope this helps with your decision making!

Re: Arden Grange or James Wellbeloved?

Newfie2, thanks for that. Just a couple more questions if I may?

Is 5 months too young in your opinion to switch to the Burns diet?

Do you mix the three flavours you buy or feed alternatively from each?

Do you soak the food in water first or feed it dry?

Do you feed additional things such as tripe, Natures Menu pouches etc.?

Thank you
Mag
