Ziwipeak.......

Anyone know much about it?

The website says "raw without the thaw".

I am very interested if this is true, it would be soooo handy to have the dried version for camping through the summer for flyball comps.

What do you guys think?

Looks good to me very minimal use of veg/rice/herbs infact I hardly see any at all.

seaweed(kelp) is highly nutritious for dogs I can't remember what its good for though o.0''

I am not so sure about parsely and I thought linseed was not good for dogs???

I don't believe in giving rice/veg/ to dogs because they can't digest them anyway so whats the point??? Unfortunately many companys still use these in their ingrediants (which are clearly labbled on some other products which are complete raw)) as a so called complete raw though I feel I would be waisting money giving a dog something it can't digest anyway.

this seems quite good. going to have a nosy, as ive got a camping trip end of may/beginning of june, and im already thinking about food

Similar to orijen and taste of the wild few veg than those two.

chicory is used as a source of FOS (prebiotics)

Extortionately priced though, isn't it? You might be ok with dinky Jin, but I couldn't afford to feed Cain on it

think i might just feed mine naturesmenu or something when i go away.. only doing 5 days, can substitute, give them a bone meal before we go etc...

excited already lol

I found natures menu to be sloppy and smelly, I prefered Natures Harvest as it appears to be more meat-like and less smelly, plus it has bone too.

Recieved a sample of ziwipeak and both Jin and I are impressed- just like dried meat, easy to feed etc. I wasnt sent a can but am very impressed with the dried.

And Moons Mum, its certainly a park with a diddly dog- eating less. Smaller poos too!! ^.^

I've used it, it's very good. Even my fussy ones loved it and it's fuss free. Rather expensive though.

Once I am working FT I wont be too worried about cost. A bag would probably last us a whole camping season in all honesty and just make life so much easier and less of a concern about fridge space etc. Plus it would only be for flyball weekends.

Is orijen and oricano (I think I have those right) pretty simular?

Acana - is that what you meant?

Ziwipeak is a different texture all together, the others being kibbles, but all are very good IMO.
