After my Akita-Husky mix practically inhaled the first 2.5kg bag within just over a week, he now won’t touch the next 2.5kg bag or its contents, which seem to have changed both on the outside and inside. How can this happen with two orders just a few days apart? I’m disappointed and will now donate the food, and in future I’ll buy from a specialist shop again—at least there I can see straight away if a bag suddenly looks different.

After feeding 2.5kg, I ordered a new 2.5kg bag because my Akita-Husky mix really, really liked the food... Now, the packaging already looked different and instead of rice, it now lists partially hydrolysed starch. That might be good for my food-sensitive Chi, but my Akita-Husky mix looked a bit sceptical... Let's see how it goes... They could have mentioned it...

So, after three days, it looks like both my dogs love this food and their digestion is great too. No burping, no tummy noises, no runny poos. Everything’s spot on. I have two very different dogs (a Chihuahua, nearly 10 years old, and an Akita-Husky mix, nearly 3 years old) and I searched for ages for a food that would suit both of them and meet our standards. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

After trying 4 samples from the brand, the duck was my female St Bernard's favourite—smells really good. The semi-moist kibbles go down very well!

Nice smell! Goes down really easily!

I tried these kibbles because I was mainly interested in the ingredients – no unnecessary extras. I’ve had my three flat coated retriever girls of different ages on them for a few months now. They’re all doing really well, their digestion is great, and their poos are just like when I was feeding BARF. They seem to really make use of most of it. So I’m very satisfied, let’s see how it goes in the long run.

My Labrador loves it, another dog of a different breed does too, even the cat sneaks a bite. I recommended it to friends to try because they have a picky eater, and they say it’s the first food their dog has eaten with real appetite.
