    Are there any dry foods out there that 100% do not have chicken in them for between 30-40euro (preferably 15kg bags)?

    Id say the majority:pac: Ingredients are printed on the back of every bag so it shouldnt be too hard. I have a dog here on Red Mills Winner (chicken and rice)
    its a 15kg bag 36euro but I know they do a beef flavour aswell. I can reccomend these as the dog here is jumping out of her skin and she has a lovely shiny healthy coat.

    You'd be surprised. I've only found a few so far that don't have chicken in them. Red mills Winner beef has poultry fat listed as an ingredient. Needs to 100% chicken free

    what about a salmon and potato food? Are you near the border? Pets at Home do their own brand, Wainwrights. Could be worth a look.

    Barking Head 'Good Hair Day' doesn't have chicken either. It's lamb and trout. My two love it.

    Where's the best place to get Barking Heads? Seen it on zooplus, but it seems to be small bags only.

    You can get it on amazon subscribe and save. Think its £38 for a 12kg.

    Salmon and potato would be perfect, but sadly I'm nowhere near the border :(

    Barking heads is great, no chicken at all, took me a while to find one that suits my dog. I buy on amazon, use subscribe and save option to get a Reduction on price, 12kg bag does my two for about 3months, don't need a lot of it.

    petfood depot on the belgard road in dublin sells it

    Barking heads is pretty expensive tbh for a 12kg. I'm looking for something between 30-40euro and a 15kg. It's to feed three dogs (ranging from around 40-58kgs). I have a feeling its just wishful thinking to think I'll get something for that price that would suit them.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,189 ✭✭✭boomerang


    Skinners is in that price range.

    No, I'm not a rep! :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 406 ✭✭Rommie


    The skinners is coming out at 45euro with postage and packaging from Amazon! Is that right?

    Directly from Amazon it should be ~€25 incl. shipping.

    Sometimes if Amazon don't have any in stock themselves a 3rd party seller may offer it at a higher price.

    If you subscribe & save your are always guaranteed delivery of your food at whatever time you set.

    Is it only with the subscribe and save that you get free shipping?

    EDIT- Never mind, didn't realise it had to be over £25 to get free shipping. Might give it a go and see how they get on with it

    You can set up the subscribe & save, place the order to get the extra 10% and then cancel the subscription in a few days. They don't mind.

    I have done this a few times on Amazon.

    I ordered this for my dogs last week,

    http://www.slaneypetfoods.ie/index.php/dry-food/

    They are 3 fussy eaters and I was unsure of it when it arrived (it's hard and crunchy) but they love it, they fight over it and can't wait to be fed, have a clean bowl since :)

    My bigger dog gets fed raw as she can't digest dog food, leaves her coat shiny and her teeth are spotless, its not too expensive if you know your local butcher and less waste to clean up ;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 406 ✭✭Rommie


    They just finished a bag of it Wizard01, something in it has made their allergies flare up again :( They were fed raw all along but my housemate's hours at work are being cut down so she can't afford to keep it up for the moment
