Hello guys,

Ever since i got my drivers license and credit card i have been given the responsibility to buy pet food for 4 of my doggies.
A brief info about my 4 dogs,
1. German Shepherd, 7y.o - Used to: Brit Senior ; Now: Nature's Variety Instinct Duck
2. German Shepherd, 5y.o - Used to : Brit Salmon ; Now: Acana Pacifica
3. Mongrel, 1 y.o Used to: Kenwood 1000 ; Now: Nature's Variety Instinct Duck
4. Pomeranian, 11 months : Used to: ANF Puppy ; Now: Orijen 6fish


From Brit Salmon to Acana Pacifica story:
I started doing loads of research on dog food i was responsible of buying them as i noticed my german shepherds skin problems were not going away despite visits to the vet and all sorts of medications.
So i figured it must be the food! Pacifica has amazing feedback online, so i decided to try it out. My dog LOVED IT, on the 2nd 13kg bag she had already gained a healthy 5kg and her dandruff has lessen alot!
I highly recommend it to dogs with skin problem. It is alittle pricey tho, the 13kg bag is RM315 market price. PLEASE TELL ME WHERE I CAN FIND IT CHEAPER smile.gif

From Brit Senior/Kenwood to Nature's Variety Instinct:
Hands down the worst food i have ever feed my dogs, my german shepherd was doing normal on her brit senior. Until my itchy hands decide to change her to instinct since it was given 5 stars by dogfoodadvisior.
The first bag my dogs were initially doing ok, after half of the bag my gsd and mongrel started losing fur like mad. Literally losing fur as if they had chemo!
So i went back online and read what people wrote instead of the ratings. Alot people gave negative comments on it. I seriously regret getting this food. Worst thing is i got 3 bags of it!
i am not sure whether it's the duck version that is causing this or the brand itself. But i highly do not recommend it.

ANF Puppy to Orijen 6 fish:
I changed this for one reason, my pomeranian hated ANF, he wouldn't even smell it. Orijen is good, my dog loved it, her fur is never better. Super fluffy, but i think the food causes the fishy breath tho. A little expensive but it's ok since he is a toy dog and only eats alittle. Recommend it! smile.gif


Conclusion: STAY AWAY FROM NATURE'S VARIETY INSTINCT DRY FOOD.
