i worked it out as they would need about 500-600g each a day but im no good at things like this

£10 a week not to bad.

Like I said I don't know about young dogs you are supposed to feed them more but I have no real idea of how much more

As adults between 2-3% of their body weight is the starting point and I do that for no more than a tenner a week

RawToGo are pretty standard pricing compared with other suppliers like DogFoodCompany in terms of what is being bought (I buy the same stuff from both) and it was of similar pricing so I don't think I'm misleading people, its not always very cheap

ETA: Actually raw to go have increased their prices now, some minces from 48p to 60p per lb and my above order was on the cheaper pricing so it'd be even more now.

Fair enough i use landywoods and the things only i don't get from there is things like fish etc. last order including delivery cost me £43 and that is enough for just under 3 months worth of food. I know your goldie obv has more food then mine, but i don't think it works out to expensive personally

Thing is Fish4Dogs kibble £34.65 for 15kgs. I'd only use 10kgs (£22 a month) of that in a month and so compared with that raw is more expensive.

I can't feed things like pork else I could pick up some stuff dirt cheap, just like I don't feed chicken if I can avoid it but I could get it quite cheap. Ordering the same stuff from RawToGo and TheDogFoodCompany prices are very similar though and not everyone has decent butchers to use.

Apparently Landywoods wont take on new customers at the minute so not sure how easy it'd be for anyone to use them atm anyway

Only south of Lincolnshire I think. And more east and midlands than west. Yeah you pay Scott when he brings the stuff.

Delivery from him is £5 but then I don't think he goes too far up north he's based in Ipswich I think.

I found the chicken mince quite bone heavy and rabbit mince was quite expensive (£1.35 pr lb or something). I am with RawToGo for variety and ease as Scott is tricky to get hold of.

I am going to change Peppa to raw. I fed my old dogs it and they loved it. She wont eat dry food and I hate buying her the tins of food, they look rank. Raw it is I think! Better if it works out cheaper too

Ahh i see, i feed chicken and pork not exclusively obviously but it is included in his diet and it's very cheap food, so i suppose that's the difference.

Hmmm well i was told that when i rang them for my first order, i emailed them the next day and had my deliver 2 days after that, so i don't think it the complete truth as i was a new customer?!?!
