Re: SKINNERS field and trial dog food

The hypoallergenic ones - Duck, Salmon or Turkey and rice are v good budget kibbles.
Autarky have brought out a Salmon one - that's good value as well.

Re: SKINNERS field and trial dog food

We use Skinners Field & Trial Salmon for our two - it suits them both and they love it. No problems at all with it - Harvey has a very delicate tum and it's the only thing that doesn't upset him.

Re: SKINNERS field and trial dog food

Fed my two this for about 6 months. Very good food but in the end my pup was still hungry on it, it seem to stop satisfiing him so had to change to jwb. But all in all a very good food that I always recommend and hope to switch back to in the future

Re: SKINNERS field and trial dog food

Mine was on the Salmon F&T for quite a while and did well initially but she has probs with any kibble after a while and is much better suited to an all wet diet.

Like Celeste/ROXY, I would always recommend it as a budget kibble

Re: SKINNERS field and trial dog food

I used to feed skinners but found it made my dogs poo rather loose so i changed to Autarky and they are great on that.

Re: SKINNERS field and trial dog food

I think it depends on the dogs, Skinners is the only food which Harvey doesn't have loose poos with. Willow however could eat anything & she would be ok. As with most things, it's finding the feed which suits your dog best.
