Red mills are dirt, it gives dogs runny shit cos there's not enough oil n fibre in it.. Red mills got complaints about this and they came out with a new improved formula and it made f**k all difference..
There's lots of good complete nuts out there without feedin them Red mills.. ie.. Australian formula, Chudleys, Kasko, Odds On, Beta, just to name a few.. They've all got the required protein, oil, fibre, ash and added vitamins that make a good kibble..

Years ago i used to use Purina as a biscut to mix with meat ect. When that went off the market i used Redmills for years and i swore by it. IMO the last couple of years it seems to have gradually went down hill, our dogs were always loose on it. A while back we changed to Gain and i like the results.

I put mine dogs on red mills and they are fine no loose stool...

I have tried a few and red mills seems to be fine.. I do feed chicken carcases and meaty bones AM. i just give the red mills Pm a couple of cup fulls..

Some days they just get the cibble and still no loose shite...


My dogs where scunnered on beta shit for fun

[moore-wkton89]

[philipmurray]

for a working dog you cant beat the old fashioned meaty/veg.

but if you do need a compleat go for a low protien food af around 18/20% the feeds like red mills racer are meant for racing dogs where short sharp burt's are wanted rather than a prolonged day ferreting or a nights lamping.

the high protien foods will make your dog hyper and less responsive to your commands.

if you can feed it meat/veg/pasta you'll have a much calmer dog for working.
