Dry Food!!!

Hi all! Still having couple of problems with Bailey and Harlie eating. They just don't seem interested at all with current food RC and we've tried all sorts like taking food up and leaving them without, adding things but nothing seems to be working. So now we are considering changing food all together to see if this helps but would like to know which ones are good to use as want to make sure they are getting all they need. Any advice would be welcomedxx

Re: Dry Food!!!

I use James Wellbeloved aswell, really good for the pup, contains no nasties and the price is ok.

Bakers = McDonalds, stay well clear.

Hi there
Re food - I only ever use Nature Diet for most of my dogs also Arden Grange Lamb.

Try a tin on sardines in with his Royal Canine could do the trick
