Cheap Dog Food Saves The Day

[woodbyne]

Hi,

My dog stayed at a friends place for a week while we were on holidays her dogs eat woolies brand dry and can food. I took my dogs food so she could stay well apparently she has taken a liking to the cheapie food (usually the other way around) and the amazing thing is this is my dog who has been allergic to a million types of food and guess what shes thriving on this crap food with the shiniest coat i have seen on her heaps of energy and not lumps.... so looks like i'm saving myself a packet on food. I would never have dared to even try that food on her shes been on it for 3 months now and looks fabulous even put on weight. Its so sad i almost feel embarrassed at teh check out with the can food in my trolley.... if it works i guess its ok. Of course i wouldn't reccommend every one with an allergic dog try it but just thought i'd share my little unusal story

There is really nothing wrong with feeding the Woolworths Select Brand dry. I've been told that it is actually repackaged Coprice. I don't feed canned food except in emergency situations when nothing else is available, but I have fed the puppy food on occasions and it seems to be quite ok too so I don't see that the adult varieties would be much different.

Woolworths Select and You'll Love Coles Dry Foods certainly wouldn't be my primary choice for long-term feeding, but I have used both under different circumstances and will no doubt use them again.

And as I say in every other thread...you feed what your dog does best on, what you can obtain easily and what suits your pocket.

I'm with Ellz on this one.

You feed your animals what they do best on.

I have a boy with terrible allergies and he only does well on Supercoat Puppy. The others are all on Eagle Pack so I agree, feed what works!
