Have always had my dogs on this food. Good product. Disappointing that the recent reduction in large bag size has not reflected in the price! That is why only 3 stars.

I got given a sample of this from the pet expo and my dog loved it! Its a little bit more expensive than what we usually buy but i think he enjoys it more. His coat also seems a bit softer and his breathe is better!
Bottom Line
Yes, I'd recommend this product to a friend

My dog always just gets biscuits and turns his nose up at them most the time until he's really hungry. Now as soon as I put these in his bowl he's keen to eat right away. He's an old dog and always been really fussy.
