bruno22rf Posted August 18, 2014 Report Share Posted August 18, 2014 After being off her food for a while and generally being uninterested in life in general I came across this tinned food in good old Tesco,s and was initially shocked at the price. But considering the price of food in general I went mad and bought 5 tins to see if our dog liked them-to say that I am impressed is a gross understatement-she has devoured each and every one and, for the first time ever, she chases her empty bowl around removing every tiny morsel. Anyone has similar experiences or have anything good or bad to report about this stuff? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andypaint Posted August 18, 2014 Report Share Posted August 18, 2014 My two have been on it for ages as it contains no cereals. The price shot up when a channel four programme "the truth about dog food" gave lily's kitchen praise. I just buy the dried biscuits though. Woodland walk being a favourite. They love the food and I know it's not full of rubbish like most foods Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Getting on for £90 per 15KG's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bruno22rf Posted August 18, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 18, 2014 £1.60/day ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fenboy Posted August 19, 2014 Report Share Posted August 19, 2014 Still expensive though at around £50 a month , I feed two dogs for half that amount . Not knocking it though if you can afford it and your dog likes it fair enough. Have you compared it against another tinned wet food though or against a dry food , in my experience any dog will woof down a tin of meat with more relish than a bowl of dry.

Richie092 Posted August 19, 2014 Report Share Posted August 19, 2014 Unfortunately it is all our dog will eat. Great stuff but expensive. We have been trying to ween her off by adding a larger amount of kibble each time but she aint daft! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gazbev Posted August 19, 2014 Report Share Posted August 19, 2014 I put the food down if it isn't gone on 15 mins it ain't hungry,next mealtime do the same,it will eat it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bazooka Posted August 19, 2014 Report Share Posted August 19, 2014 (edited) It's nearer £90 for 15KG's for dry sacks. Eighty odd pounds for 14KG's. Based on you using a sack every 2 months ( conservative estimate) for 1 dog it's one and a half quid a day. I can feed 4 a healthy balanced diet of both fresh meat and dried kibble at that cost. If you get in quick...there's an offer on for 6 of their tins of dog food. On offer at, drum roll-----just under £12 for 6 tins of 400g !

ian g Posted August 19, 2014 Report Share Posted August 19, 2014 surely it would be cheaper to give meat from durham animal feeds its about 30 quid for over 20 kg of beef or lamb or chicken minece Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JDog Posted August 19, 2014 Report Share Posted August 19, 2014 I give mine five minutes to eat their food. If they have not eaten it in that time I take it away and give them the same food at their next meal. No dog has ever left two meals in a row unless it has been ill.
