Eukanuba Naturally Wild Formulas

[badboyz]

I see that Eukanuba has brought out several Naturally Wild Fomulas with no fillers. Salmon, turkey, venison (NZ).

Anybody tried the yet?

Haven't tried it, I saw it at the petshop a few weeks ago and had a look, though. Pretty pictures of wild animals on the packet, but it seemed outrageously expensive for a grain and potato based food!

That's what I thought too!! Very expensive, looks attractively packed, but to me, not worth the money.

they have rice, barley, potato etc in it it would cause severe allergies around here

I bought a packet of the North Atlantic Salmon and Rice. Zedley loves it as a little snack (he is a BARF-boy), he is also an itchy boy and so far no itchies from him

ETA Inside the packet is a coupon for $5.00 off the next purchase, this is not mentioned on the outside of the packet.

Had a good look at this new product as my parents bought it for their pointer, she has a gut of steel so no problems there but you're paying for the extra printing costs.

It still has fillers ... and if I remember correctly by-products but please don't quote me on that. I certiantly turned my nose up at it.
