The best way of feeding a dog is on raw meat and biscuit with perhaps some supplements if necessary. Unfortunately this doesn't suit the life-styles of most of us today; so what are the alternatives?
There are unfrozen cooked meat products that one might generally refer to as sausages. These are made strictly to a price and are mostly not worth considering. One honourable exception in that category, though, is the brand named NATUREDIET.
Then there are tins. Now we know that tins must be good because as you will have noticed almost every Crufts Supreme Champion has been fed on a particular brand of tin and it must be true because as Brutus said "They are all honourable men" and I can't afford to argue with them. It is certainly true that there is one brand CHAPPIE that is regularly recommended by vets as being suitable for some dogs with digestive problems as it has a constant and unusual recipe.
Personally, we find cans heavy, inconvenient, necessarily wasteful of packaging , expensive and we know that we don't know what the foods are made of but we can make an educated guess; for instance they would call "meaty chunks" "chunks of meat" if they could, but they aren't so they can't. There are one or two companies who make a genuine effort to make a good tinned product and we can recommend Denes as a company whose cans have natural ingredients with added herbs and nothing to make those who care about ingredients feel uncomfortable.
