fenboy Posted July 30, 2015 Report Share Posted July 30, 2015 I have always fed my dogs skinners foods with no issues and good results . The new pup went onto skinners puppy but a month in and it does not seem to suit him , he is well enough but his stools are still very loose and there are a lot more of them than I would like . So its looking like I need a alternative , I dont want to be spending £45-£50 ( Skinners £33) a bag if possible and I don't want to feed raw, so what else would Could you recommend ?

E.w. Posted July 30, 2015 Report Share Posted July 30, 2015 Fenboy, I would feed him some raw maybe twice a week and stick with the skinners it works with my dogs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cosd Posted July 30, 2015 Report Share Posted July 30, 2015 Fen boy Try CSJ Give them a call, phone always answered by owner. Tell her about your pup and she will probably get her nutritionist to call you you tell her what you want from the pup and they will send you some samples. The food comes in no frills sacks but if you check the nutrition it's up there with the best. My dog has been on it since a pup and he's soliduscle and fit. Forgot to say, very reasonable prices.

Penelope Posted July 31, 2015 Report Share Posted July 31, 2015 (edited) Started mine off on Wainrights puppy. Right is right, went right through her, changed her over to CSJ Little Champ. Since changing her stools have been much better and she appears to be thriving on it. http://www.csjk9.com/productcart/pc/viewPrd.asp?idproduct=22&idcategory=0 £15 a bag is what I pay from a local supplier.

JDog Posted July 31, 2015 Report Share Posted July 31, 2015 (edited) I use Chudleys Working Crunch. Both dogs like it and it does not have too much protein in to fire them up too much. It is £15 for a 20kg bag! Edited July 31, 2015 by JDog Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cracker Posted August 3, 2015 Report Share Posted August 3, 2015 Wouldn't feed a puppy raw on account of phosphorous content and long bone development. It's got a 24K gold price tag, at least in the US, but anybody feeding Farmina? MG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cocker boy Posted August 4, 2015 Report Share Posted August 4, 2015 The only bagged food I would feed is eukanuba puppy and Arden grange adult . I feed tripe and biscuit mainly. Skinners?, I would rather feed them the bag it came in !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fenboy Posted August 4, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 4, 2015 The bag is plastic , I can assure you your dogs would prefer the food inside of the bag Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geordieh Posted August 4, 2015 Report Share Posted August 4, 2015 Different dogs thrive on different foods Arden grange adult was **** literally lots of it and like runny water on two of my dogs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marki Posted August 4, 2015 Report Share Posted August 4, 2015 I've had dogs with sensitive stomachs and found the german cold pressed foods, Markus Muhle or Lukullus, really good with good quality content. Currently feeding Bosch dry food. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
