Hi

Im with you Sam'n'Droo, Wainwrights really settled Chesters stomach after I tried him on burns (not a good reaction to that!)

Re: Why is pedigree or bakers bad?

If people keeps on saying bad things in that brand, better consult to a vet. This person can recommend what's best for your dogs.

I find personally that the vets tend to push the brands they stock, like Hills Science Plan etc. Which can work out alot more expensive expecially if you have a larger dog. There are alot of other makes which are just as good and alot cheaper especailly for family's on budgets and the dont even have to go with the cheap Bakers or Pedigree Chum. My dogs were very hyper on the Bakers and I didnt realise how hyper until i changed their diet to James Wellbeloved. My chi's are on Royal Canine at the moment until they are one then I will change to another brand which is as good but cheaper. xxxxxxxx

vets haven't a clue about which dog to food to recommend. My vets used to promote Hills Science now its Royal Canin neither of which i feed.

Re: Why is pedigree or bakers bad?

Tilly has Wainwrights and i've noticed a huge improvement in her (she was on chappie), I find she likes James Wellbeloved didn't fill her as much as she was still eating carpet fluff-eww! She used to have pedigree biscuit with her chappie but her teeth are a lot better now, as are her doodies :-p

Re: Why is pedigree or bakers bad?

Vets do very little study on nutrition during training - Vet Nurses and Vet Techs are trained much more on the subject, but I'd still trust an experienced dog owner or breeder over the word of a vet tech.

Agree on this, also your indepenant pet stores (not the puppy selling ones) do alot of nutrition training albeit through the pet food companies but they at least are trained in most of the brands they sell. I know we were when I worked at a pet store. 3 different companies and lots of literature to read. Orijen was one that did a short course on their 2 brands that we carry....Jill
