I know there were a fair few people feeding Nutro and were very disappointed when it was no longer available. Well I just received this email and thought I would share:

Thanks Sags, fair enough. I'll have to look at the ingredients list etc. before I decide to try some.

The webpage that sent the advertising email for it has this up about it (no detailed ingredient list unfortunately):

NATURALCHOICE does not use chicken heads, feet or intestines, which may be found in products that contain chicken by-product meal. Like all NATURAL CHOICE products, this formula contains no ground yellow corn.

MMM packaging is the same BUT ingredients?

Sags, if and when you get a chance, can you please send details of what you know?

We fed Nutro for nearly eight years and were very happy with the US product but this could be a completely new ballgame :(

We have been feeding Artemis since the beginning of the month and are very happy having tried Orijen and Dick Van Patten's Natural Balance which didn't agree with ours.

We keep Ziwipeak as a backup :(

I hope it turns out to be decent. I used to feed Nutro and the dogs did really well on it. They mainly get a raw diet now but it's nice to have a back up food. Will be interested to hear what you have to say about it Sags when you get the chance. (No rush! :( )

It would be interesting to see the ingredients of Chicken, Oatmeal and Rice (I think that is the old Sensitive?) listed, as well as Light.

My suggestion to anyone who used Nutro is to formulate a list of their important questions (for me it is things like meat content (which Nutro used to state), why the inclusion of "corn protein" in some products) and regarding sodium levels), and send them to Masterfoods for a response.

There will apparently be samples available to some stores, in some areas, so again, may be worth asking direct for some.

Happy to answer pms.

I, too will be anxious to see what the Aus produced Nutro is like. I was very happy with the original Lamb and Rice and the dogs did really well on it and loved the taste.

After that we moved to ProPlan Selects Lamb and Oats, but now that is also no longer being imported into Australia (apparently it wasn't too popular)

They're currently on the ProPlan Salmon - they seem to love that as well, but I can't stand the fishy smell.

I was given a bag of the lamb adult food tonight by my SIL who works for masterfoods. Had no idea it was back (so to speak) until she gave me that bag! I'll see what other info she finds out through work.

SilverHaze, was there no list of ingredients on the bag?
