My minature fox terrier who has just turned 3 months old loves these biscuits. We put him on these when we got him at 12 weeks old from advice from our Vet. Although more expensive than supermarket pet food it is well worth it for its nutritional value.

Yes, I'd recommend this product to a friend

Comments
I had tried 3 other brands which Mila would not touch. Tried a sample of puppy bites, she loved them. Eating these is a game for her, as she runs around the bowl eating as she plays with them. Thankfully I now have her on a dry food diet that she enjoys.
Bottom Line
Yes, I'd recommend this product to a friend
My vet recommended this for our 2 new puppies
