I only add things like yoghurt, sardines to the dry food would this be enought for a dog? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MEALS FOR MUTTS KANGAROO AND LAMB its grain free and Australian, so I'm hoping its a good one :-) doesn't look too babd, but for me it is not grain free if it contains rice! Yeah, I'd be immediately wary of any food that is marketed so dishonestly. That aside, the ingredient list really isn't all that great. Two meats listed together, probably to bump them to the top of the list, ahead of the rice (the grain-free rice, no less). Which means your first ingredient is probably rice :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Austerra Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 (edited) It isn't marketed as grain free. They have brought out a Salmon & Sardine variety as well. Lovely new packaging too. I've had mine on it since it was first brought out as I like to try new foods on my lot before carrying it in store. All three seem fine on it, no upset stomachs or anything, bit hard to tell coatwise as all blowing coat after bitch in season and at this time of year anyway. http://www.mealsformutts.com.au/ Edited December 30, 2012 by Austerra Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently the cheapest place to get it http://maandpaws.com.au/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=948&cPath=121&m1track=googlebase It looks like it might be a bit cheaper than ToTW but in terms of quality.. definitely not worth the price.

Austerra Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 Pet 'N' The Dog @ Beaconsfield Vic - 2.5 kg is $20 and 10 kg is $55. Even less for Dogs Vic members. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even less for Dogs Vic members. to me that is expensive for something full of rice Mhrm. ToTW is $19.95 here for 2kg and in terms of ingredients, looks far better for a fairly small amount extra. Edited to add.. Meals for Mutts looks very similar to Black Hawk- which in my opinion (having used it to supplement feeding raw) is a rubbish food. I'd stick to ToTW or Ziwipeak, if you can afford it. Edited December 31, 2012 by Hardy's Angel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sagittarian Posted January 1, 2013 Share Posted January 1, 2013 I did ask the rep what the "natural fats and oils" and "natural flavours" were specifically, as well as where it is manufactured, and received no response in spite of promises to get back to me. When we select products to stock, we like straight answers to simple questions lol. Sags Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maddy Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 Update time! I just got a snarky PM from a member with zero posts who "feeds their dogs the product" (but certainly wouldn't be involved in the business, oh no- insert Mister Rolley Eyes Man here) demanding to know.. why are you making claims that they are dishonest can you provide me with this proof as I read the web site and spoken to suppliers and it does not state that anywhere. Also you mention 2 meats together as first ingredient and claim its not please provide me with proof of this as well? P.S have you tried the food? Pro business tip- ^ that is a terrible way to do business. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
