Product Information

The BVA told us: 'We don't recommend a raw food diet, at least without a vet's guidance. This is for two main reasons: the nutritional deficiencies that often come with feeding raw food (eg low taurine in cats or high vitamin A) and the risks associated with handling raw food – both for the pets and the household.'

See how brands such as Burns, Harringtons and Royal Canin are rated by customers, as well as supermarket options from the likes of Aldi and Lidl. Which dog food brand is best for my dog? How much your dog should eat will depend on factors such as breed, type, age, health and lifestyle. For example, a working sheepdog needs more energy than a small dog with a less active lifestyle. Any commercially manufactured dog food in the UK that meets UK Pet Food guidelines will contain complete nutritional requirements for pets, says the British Veterinary Association (BVA). However, the BVA adds that 'each pet has its own needs, so diet should be adapted to your pet's lifestyle, age, breed and any health conditions. We advise people to speak with their vet when they get a new pet'. For this reason we've calculated the approximate 'as fed' percentages for the main ingredient categories in the finished product.UK Pet Food says: 'All "complete" pet foods must by law contain all the nutrients in the right proportions that a pet needs for healthy bodily function.' While the 'mixing bowl' composition is useful for knowing what went into the food, it doesn't always reflect what your dog is actually eating. This is because the processes that turn the ingredients into the finished pet food can significantly alter the relative weights of the ingredients. Lamb: Meat and animal derivatives (Lamb min. 4%), cereals, derivatives of vegetable origin (gelling agents), vitamins & minerals. Your vet will be able to advise on the best diet for your pet’s life stage, breed and lifestyle, and tell you if your pet has any special dietary needs. My dog has allergies – should I buy hypoallergenic food?

Chunks in Jelly with Lamb: Meat and Animal Derivatives (Lamb 4%), Derivatives of Vegetable Origin and Minerals.Some of the reasons owners prefer feeding relate to it being 'natural', coupled with perceived improvements in their dog's health. From dry and wet dog food to raw, there are hundreds of options available, and it can be hard to work out what’s actually best for your pet. The experts we spoke to don't advise DIY homemade dog food. This is because it can be extremely difficult to put together a balanced, homemade diet for your pet, so it's generally not recommended, unless it's supervised by a vet.

Dry foods are usually the most economical, and easiest for you to feed and store. Owners who feed wet food should monitor their pet's teeth, as it can predispose them to dental disease. So, as long as you're buying a complete commercial pet food, your dog should be getting all the nutrients they need and you don't need to supplement this with anything else.
