I wouldn't class myself as a barf feeder but i do feed a natural diet. I'd just feed tinned food for that time away. Problem with dry complete is switching their digestion over to a food that takes 8-10 hrs to go through compared with 3-4 hrs on a natural diet.

I'm only saying what barf feeders that I know and ones on other forums I'm a member of have said, what tinned food do you feed.

I give mine Royal Canin but it's not the main food, it's just a back up to the other stuff that I give them... raw chicken wings, raw lamb bones, raw mince, cooked foods (leftovers) such as pasta bolognaise, hotpot, sunday roast dinner leftovers.

I wouldn't have mine on just dry food alone, imagine eating dry toast every day thats what it's like for them, it's a very unnatural diet and is bound to be pretty boring.

There are so many dry foods to choose from and even though I give it as a back up, I wouldn't recommend it as a main food source. Think back to the good old days when the family dogs ate nothing but leftover table scraps and the odd raw bone from the butchers, they were healthier, lived longer and most likely a lot happier.

I don't feed either dog tinned - there on plain meat, biscuit and gnawing bones to keep their teeth clean. If i was going away camping for a week i might feed tinned or buy supermarket mince for that time.

Tinned used to be good and easily obtainable. I tried butcher's, pedigree and chappie on my saluki cross when i first had her and have to say that she didn't keep weight on. Goodness knows what they put in any commercial food now but i'll stick plain pet mince meat from the local butcher with biscuit. 20p per bag [3lbs]. Not that cost is a consideration to me but the fact that i know what is in it.

hi all im thinking of changing my 2 staffys onto orijen,do you think this would be ok for a pregnant bitch also,as im thinking about breeding,
regards juce

Been feeding this to two of the dogs here and having good results with it, both have put on weight and coat and skin is good.

I think if you feed a super premium food such as James Wellbeloved you get great results from them, great shiny coats, great teeth, less waste produced, you don't get runny tummies! So i think if you weigh up the cost of feeding it is well worth the price.

Work out a daily costing on how long a sack lasts you and i think you will be pleasantly surprised at the economical price of it.

I feed iams to my pup and a 15 kg sack lasts him about a 5/6 weeks so the daily cost works out at less than £1 !!! I think that is very reasonable for a 5 month old gsd!
