i dont know much about looking into ingredients, but it doesnt seem like there is alot of meat in the product at only 23% and thats by products as well... what food is it?

I thought there was a lot of cereals in there too.
It's called Yarrah - and is organic.

This is their Gluten free food...

Not asking for me....asking as a customer wanted to know if I can get it (I can't), but I had never heard of it, so did a bit of looking!

I wouldnt feed this due to the levels of cereals, and meat/by products

seems like there is alot of cereals and grain in them! i prefer foods with more meat content if i fed dry, which is why im weaning pups on to arden grange as well as their raw food.

Ditto Which is what I try and explain to my customers if they are willing to listen (most are).
I too feed Arden Grange (wet and dry) to the pups, and dry to the kittens!

I don't think it is terrible but it isn't great either. I'd rather the grain in dog food was rice as it is more digestible. 46% corn and wheat -- sounds like what you would feed a chicken!

Chicken-by-products are not a bad thing IMO.

Soybean hulls and sunflower seeds??? are we feeding birds or canines here? what nutritional value do they hold?

Not something I'd ever feed, but better than some of the crap that is sold in supermarkets.

Hi there!
Have you guys seen dogfoodanalysis. lts a really informative website that has helped me alot in chosing a kibble that's better for my epileptic dog than the stuff he's on at the moment. The general consensus is a) dogs in the wild would NEVER eat grain, so grain free is best, and b) there's so much rubbish and unhealthy fillers (including the addition of sawdust...I kid you not!)..in most popular brands! As you already know, Arden Grange is very good, but not for me as it contains rosemary which may trigger seizures in epi dogs. (l know that rosemary is used instead of artificial preservatives- you can't seem to have it both ways-but unless l have it confirmed from the manufacturer that it "decamphorates" the rosemary,l'm very wary.) Sorry to ramble, but l've spent most of this week researching healthier kibble whilst the dust in my house gets thicker!
