asukasani Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 I saw this ads about 4 legs dog food and it said that it uses the real meat and vegie, no preservative, no colouring or artificial flavour. I'm just wondering, has anyone heard of it or tried it before? Is it as good as it sounds? You can also check the website at www.4legs.com.au Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
griff Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 I have fed it in the past My local Woolies does'nt carry it any more & my local Coles never have :D I was feeding BARF for one month the next month 4 legs .. but now its back to totally BARF .. with Natures Gift on stand by . You could buy some 4 legs and give it a try I found it easy to feed my dogs liked it and they had no side effects running large poops or any thing from eating it.

krash01 Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 yep! every dog i've ever fed it to, loves the stuff!!! it is a bit hard to come by though as not all supermarkets stock it :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tilly Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 My boy loves it but the bags are not sufficient to feed my GSD as a meal - and at about $5 a bag it is expensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
he'smyhero Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 My two love it- but its too expensive to feed as a staple diet for us so I buy a pack and cut the meat balls up to treat size and freeze in seperate bags for training treats. I works great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpikesPuppy Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 Like any dog food, you will find pros and cons. Personally, we like it (well, my dogs do :D ) and will feed it occasionally (not always in stock at Coles but we usually grab a pack when they ahve it). We are not far from the 4 legs factory outlet and if we had the freezer space, we would definately look into getting a case of it/buying in bulk. Also makes for excellent training treats IMO.

asukasani Posted October 8, 2007 Author Share Posted October 8, 2007 Oh great, I didn't expect so many of guys have tried it...I couldn't find any reference to this brand in the web... Yeah I think I'm going to give it a go...and sounds like it taste nice too, my dog..she is a very fussy girl...:D Thanks guys ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ptolomy Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 I use it as training treats but it does leave little bits in your pocket :D They have a new variety out turkey and gravy - which I made the mistake of freezing and then trying to break bits off to put in jackpot containers and it doesn't break like the other varieties. We get it from Coles and its usually about $4.99 a packet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wagsalot Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 (edited) My local coles stock it, but they seem to sell it pretty quickly, especially when it's on special. Riley gets a packet once every two weeks. A packet normally lasts him 2-3 meals. I also mix a egg up with it and he loves it. If they put it on special he gets it more often.

White Shepherd mom Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 I have given it to my two as an occassional treat, however the past two times Casper has walked away from it and has preferred to go without food than eat it. I guess it's not much of a treat if he doesn't like it! Will stick to chicken necks as a treat instead! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
New Age Outlaw Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 (edited) Mine get it occasionally (they love it, but then they would eat dirt if you put in a bowl and told them it was food! ) but I agree it is expensive. I only buy it when they have some marked down ones (last ones I bought were $2.49!! :rolleyes: ). Edited October 8, 2007 by New Age Outlaw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingsleychi Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 My chi's get it on the odd occasion and absolutely love it!!! If i was buying food for just them i wouldnt mind the price but they get what i buy Roxy with the occasion as mentioned before. Most of the supermarkets in Preth stock it from what i have seen.

Kobayashi Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 I mix a little in with willows dry and she LOVES it Usually she eats all the balls, and leaves some of the dry :rolleyes: Glad i am not the only one who has tried it with some success.

Ons Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 Onsy, Tilly and Flash are here whinging that they should get a packet of 4 paws each like the other DOL dogs! They love it but I make a packet last for two dinners between the three of them - not enough they say! They do have their biscuits with it as well.

Guest Robatife BCs Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 My Safeway stocks it for $4.99 I had a look on their website and it says "REAL Chicken, Lamb, Beef etc". I know that Pal and Purina also say "REAL Chicken, Lamb, Beef etc" and they really dont use a good quality meat! Does anyone know exactly what "meat" goes into FourLegs? It does look yummy though.

Kobayashi Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 As the dog doesnt have the same troubles those who serve the other brands you listed, i am assuming its actually a decent quality meat, lol. I might be wrong though, but as long as her tummy doesnt get upset by it, and it helps her wolf down her dry food, i will continue to use it as a mixer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you advise where the factory outlet is? Also is this suitable as part of a raw diet, or is it cooked? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asukasani Posted October 9, 2007 Author Share Posted October 9, 2007 I've just got my first 4 legs packet...god, my girl emptied her bowl so fast! I'm so happy for the fact that she loves it, she is very fussy... Same concern here with Robatife, does anyone know about the quality of this food? You know, people always say bad stuff about the pet food in supermarket... Has anyone tried to smell the food before? Hahah...but it does smell nice and smell real ! You can even smell the shredded coconut! (I bought the chicken, pasta and vegie).... Last question: can we microwave the food? Since, it has to be stored in the freeze or fridge... Thanks guys...

cavanova Posted October 9, 2007 Share Posted October 9, 2007 My elderly Malt (nearly 15 yrs old) loves it. So do our Cavalier babies. It is great for training treats as well ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
niki schaef Posted October 9, 2007 Share Posted October 9, 2007 i just got a packet today for ted. i got the new turkey, thyme and gravy one to try something new. ted loves the other ones and i let him lick out the tray after i put in in meal sized bags to freeze and he LOVED it ;) he was pushing the tray around the kitchen trying to get every last bit out!! the ingredients listed for this flavour are: Chicken, chicken stock, durum flour, turkey, starch, thyme, liver, carrageenan, salt, vitamins and minerals, food acids, flavour, guar gum, sunflower oil, natural clour, xanthan gum. i feed it to ted occasianally usually when we are at training. ot doubles as his tea and keeps his focus really well because he loves it so much and its something different.
