dodger 2,664 Posted June 14, 2006 Report Share Posted June 14, 2006 If your going to use vitalin your better off with vitalin crown. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ginge2k6 0 Posted June 14, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2006 thanks lads, i have used it before on the staffy and wasn't happy with the shit, what would you recomend then for a low budjet off about £10 a month. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
parkstone 24 Posted June 14, 2006 Report Share Posted June 14, 2006 Try Red Mills Racer, most pet shops can get it for you who buy off Batleys, it comes in 15kg bags for around £10 depending what the pet shop ads for themselves. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

towzer 3 Posted June 14, 2006 Report Share Posted June 14, 2006 supa dog active about £12 for 15kg bag Quote Link to post Share on other sites
sandymere 8,261 Posted June 15, 2006 Report Share Posted June 15, 2006 nestle purina maintenance formula is vat free and £7.50 for a 15k bag, at 29% protein it can be cut with cooked veg etc during the off season to reduce the % to around 24 and make it last longer. it takes a few days to settle with a new diet but then they seem to do well on it. if there is a farm supplier locally, such as mole valley farmers, then they are likely to offer a good price.

Gin 496 Posted June 17, 2006 Report Share Posted June 17, 2006 Greyhound Maintainance,- from Wafcol £11 per bag. As its working dog food its VAT free. http://www.wafcol.co.uk/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Fletcher 0 Posted June 17, 2006 Report Share Posted June 17, 2006 Raw meat and veg, easy do it for a tenner a month. My butcher sell's dog meat, basically all the scraps minced, 30p a pound, add some raw veg and some rice or pasta if you want. Theres some good threads about it on here or other sites. I've fed my dogs this way for a while and they've never looked so good. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
brock 11 Posted June 19, 2006 Report Share Posted June 19, 2006 years ago i used to feed my dogs vitalin-never again its crap Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Buck Posted June 24, 2006 Report Share Posted June 24, 2006 my lurcher didn't really keep his condition well with the red mills racer. so i changed to Dr John Gold and i am impressed as it is much cheaper at only £7.49 15kg sack and my lurcher is in great knick. [NO TEXT TALK] else use or hav used Dr john dog foods? and wat yous think?? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
J Darcy 5,871 Posted June 24, 2006 Report Share Posted June 24, 2006 cereal based food can cause your dog to twist its guts. Then you either have a dead dog and/or a huge vets bill. I feed autaky chick/rice and find it very good. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
