Yes, its a good food. I do wish I could get it in 15 kg bags though. 12kg is just too small. This was the reason I changed to Kronch. I liked AG but not at thaty price for12 kg.Kaiser wrote:My dogs are on Arden Grange lamb and rice and it seems fantastic! never have I had such settled stomachs in my dogs.

Re: dog food
I don't feed Arden Grange now but you can get 2x12kg for £54.99 from www.swellpets.co.uk/ which I think is a reasonable price.

I'm not such a fan of the Arden Grange Chicken. Not sure why, but just doesn't seem to be as good ? Anyone else find this or a reason for it ? Is lamb simply a better protein ?

Re: dog food
Simply didn't sit as well with my dogs, but then one of my GSP is a sensitive bugger. The foods fine I was just asking for a reason why it would sit better with my dogs.shootingstu wrote:I am trying the AG chicken on my ess at present I am curios as to why you don't think it is as good?Kaiser wrote:I'm not such a fan of the Arden Grange Chicken.

Re: dog food
Transferred both of my pups off AG junior (which is chicken) to AG adult, which is also chicken but fresh chicken. Neither dog liked it when put on it, Keely in particular became quite loose. After checking the ingredients i realised the junior (which suited them both fine as young pups) had a higher proportion of chicken meal as opposed to fresh. They're both now on AG adult premium which again has a higher proportion of chicken meal as opposed to fresh chicken, and they're both happy on that and elements of raw too.
Edited to add: fresh as opposed to "meal" means a lower actually proportion of meat because it's measured before being dehydrated. Not sure if that was the reason for both pups not doing well on AG adult - less actual meat.

Re: dog food
The premium seemed to be excellent too I have to say.

Re: dog food
AG Breeder bags still come in 15kgs and are cheaper than the 12kg bags, if you can find someone that stocks it.

I've heard Acana dry dog food is supposed to be pretty good but wow it's pricey
