last week just bought a 1kg pack Nutriedge Lamb and Rice, then try to feed FIFI with it. She straight away wallop the whole bowl. doh.gif
Now mixing Canidae with it to encourage her eat, must finish the remaing Canidae Lamb.
Nutriedge really smells better, and the ingredients looks good too, no corn no soy. But for that price, quite alot of filler (rice).
Anyone else feeding Nutriedge to ur furkid????

Hi, i've been feeding Nutriedge to my dogs for 1.5 years... so far the best brand i've tried..
here are the reasons why:

1) The LEAST filler percentage in any dog food...
Try soaking Nutriedge , Eukanuba, Eaglepack, Blackwood and Innova Evo kibbles in water....
It takes 5 hours for Nutriedge kibbles to soften....
But guess what, all the latter brands, the kibbles swollened in 15 mins!!!!!!!
I'm very impressed with the compact ingredients Nutriedge actually contains!

2) NO preservative...
that's why if you dont put them in air-tight and moist-free environment...
White stains (i.e. maybe fungus) grows....

So far, i've bought 25kg breeder pack... kept them well in air-tight containers for at least 3 months,
never i've encountered the "white stains" and "worm" problem wor..............

3) Less smelly poo poo
BIG difference from other brands!!!!!!!!! Less cleaning work for me too!


All in all, i've tried so many brands.... and the results that Nutriedge brings to my dogs are undeniable satisfying...
My two dogs used to get sick a lot..... Serious... I used to run them into my vet twice a week...
But after i feed them Nutriedge, they're now healthy and happy!

And which nutriedge u r feeding? chicken or lamb?
Wait till my FIFI finish the canidae, and all the innova and california natural sample, will go back to nutriedge again.
btw, nutriedge got fish or not gah??

I have a Min. Schnauzer and a Siberian Husky....

For my Min. Schnauzer i alter Stage 3 mini bites and Lamb and Rice now and then.......
As for my Husky, i feed her Stage 2 as she needs higher protein content to accomodate her high exercise level! hehex....

Nutriedge only got Chicken and Lamb formula wor.........

Wow, first time I see people promote NutriEdge. On the other hand, my dogs cant seem to get themselves settled with Nutriedge lor. Watery poo, dont want eat, etc.

*
So far, all my friends who tried Nutriedge never accounter watery poo and the not-eating problem wor..
In fact, i actually encourage my friends to change 100% of their pooches' food from other brands to Nutriedge....

(For other brands, when you change, firstly you need to change by 25% new food then rest old food.. then slowly to 100% new food..... But Nutriedge, you can change 100% immediately and never a problem)


True story har...
My Husky had EXPLODING watery poo for 2 MONTHS when i fed him with Eaglepack...
I got so fed up with all the cleaning i had to do..... plus i couldnt see any substance in my dog...
I changed to Nutriedge 100% then, i didnt even bother with the "change from 25% then slowly to 100%" theory...
and guess what, immediately i get SOLID poo for the first time!!!!!!!!
Happy till i almost laughed to death.............

HAHAHAHAA....

So many NutriEdge supporter. On the contrary, I dont really like NutriEdge. It was the brand that the breeder fed Moonie, my second Westie.

When I first got her, she was a bit sickly, so I bought the NutriEdge just to ensure that she dont have to change her food and give her diarrhea. I only fed her about 2 weeks, then I throw away the rest for the crows to eat when white fungus / worms start appearing at the bottom of the tong.

This is the thing for ANY dog food...
You cannot put them on the floor.......
coz the floor gives moisture...... thus enhancing the growing of fungus and "worms"......

I've never encounter this problem, coz i keep the kibbles in air-tight containers and on a table....

A quick report...

Tried half a packet of orijen (got free from a friend  brows.gif ) Discontinued feeding Novacoat supplements. Siu Kat's coat is indeed shinier and smoother than usual. Normally if i discontinue Novacoat, there'll be noticable dryness/dullness in the fur.

Most importantly, with Orijen, sh*t size is very much reduced and smells less (a must for indoor dogs  smile.gif )

Siu Wan unfortunately developed some kind of rashes after a week or so. Mine are indoor, couch potato dogs, so perhaps the high protein content is a no-go.

A real bummer then because for Siu Kat, Orijen works wonders  sad.gif

Since Orijen is out, went to Seapark to replenish Eagle Pack supplies, but guess what, something new came in...

Some reviews from Dog Food Reviews:

http://www.dogfoodanalysis.com/dog_food_re...oduct=168&cat=4
http://www.dogfoodanalysis.com/dog_food_re...duct=1082&cat=4
http://www.dogfoodanalysis.com/dog_food_re...duct=1083&cat=4

A bit pricy, but seeing that Orijen doesn't work for Siu Wan and that i am no longer satisfied with Eagle Pack or Blackwood, decided to give the fish and potatoes pack a try. Plan to try the organic one next.

Anyone's tried this before?

Anyway, a Hong Kong friend of mine sent me these earlier.....
Some importer tried to push this brand in Hong Kong earlier this year... But due to this incident...
This brand didn't work out in Hong Kong's market.....

Natural Balance was actually recalled in the US in April this year.....
Anyone knows the importer of Natural Balance in Msia??
Should call them up and ask them about it............ for the safety of our furkids!
