Oscar was and still is hyper, but on Bakers he had a complete personality change. My other dog had tummy problems on it.

Hi I've just called Burns Contact Us
and spoken to the Nutrition Dept there, who are extremely helpful and have recommended Burns Fish and Brown rice for my westie who has skin iritation .... might be worth a try ..

That's interesting that Burns say this. I was recently told that Westies have an intolerance to all grains and this manifests itself in poor coat, skin problems, ear infections etc. I was told that they fare much better on a diet where the main ingredients are Fish & Potato.
Anybody else heard this?

Are the Natural Dog Food Company any good?

royal cannon is the best about i have tryed hundreds of food over the years and found this to be the best allround

Royal Canin? and darned expensive.

At the end of the day - not much wrong with plain meat [sourced from local butcher] and mixer/biscuit.

As for dry complete - i couldn't agree more... difficult to choose from such a vast array.

They might have been before they were taken over by Mars. There have been lots of complaints recently as they "tweek" the formulas

Well I used to give Zeus just dry on it's own and after a while of doing that he had a few stomach problems, so my sister suggested getting some meat so it's not so dry, so I got some Butchers and now he's fine.

So more then likely that's how the puppy will be brought up. Just need to find the Dry Food.

I've tried Pedigree Better By Nature, and Zeus' stomach didn't agree with it.

I have read good thing about the Natural Dog Company food on this forum. But I've seen James Well Beloved alot, is this any good? I don't want to be spending stupid amounts of money on Dry Food though.

James wellbeloved is good food, I found zeb was really windy and had very soft poo's on it. He would stink aswell and i mean really stink so changed him to arden grange for dry and its brilliant. lovely poops and hardly ever farts or if he does they dont smell

I would stick with James Wellbeloved. Excellent quality food. Some of the cheaper foods are packed with fillers with no nutritional value whatsoever. I agree, it is pricey but you really do get what you pay for in my humble opinion.
