Stirling Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 WITHOUT starting a major thread on diet/commercial vs. homemade/BARF/"premium" kibble, I was wondering if anyone else has tried Vet's All Natural Premium? It now comes pre-mixed with roo meat (not just muscle meat - ALL the bits of roo, offal etc, all raw) I am currently using the "Allerblend" on my itchy dog and have been happy with the results so far. I don't know very much about nutrition, but have read a few of the threads trying to learn about more "natural" feeding. Has anyone else tried this specific product, and am I doing the right thing by my dog? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pomquest Posted April 29, 2008 Share Posted April 29, 2008 Hi Stirling, I use Vets All Natural Health Booster as I make up my own raw dinners for my guys and really love it but am thinking about giving the Allerblend a try as I have one with skin issues. I have just started giving her the VAN Omega Blend Oil but it hasnt been long enough to see a difference yet. I think the VAN range are great. My dogs look fantastic and have soooo much energy. I don't hesitate to recommend it. S. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stirling Posted April 29, 2008 Author Share Posted April 29, 2008 Thanks, pomquest. I have been using the VAN Flax Seed Oil for a while and saw a slight improvement in his itchiness - his skin was definitely much less dry. I have only been using Allerblend for a few weeks. There may have been some improvement, but I will probably need to give it a bit longer. The reason I ask, is that it's very expensive to feed my 48kg Deerhound on it, so I want to be sure I am not wasting money... I will happily use it if it helps him, though. Thanks again.

haven Posted April 29, 2008 Share Posted April 29, 2008 Someone asks this question every few weeks so if you do a search you should find lots of info I've used it myself with great results, the only thing I don't like about it is the soaking time, which is just a minor inconvenience really. I'm currently trying my dogs on Phudds, which is a similar thing made by Browns that is just add water, ie no soak time. Condition wise the dogs are looking great and they certainly like it but roughly since I started them on it Nova has been having weird episodes of gagging and drooling in the night, a couple of hours after dinner time. I'm fairly sure the timing is actually coincidence and it's not caused by the new food, but I'm not 100% at this stage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks haven. The Allerblend is already mixed with roo meat, so no soaking involved. Comes in 800g packs in the fridge at vets. I will do a search. Thanks again!
