Dog food review websites

Post by Dawnspell »

I've just come across a review website that I've not seen before. https://petfoodexpert.co.uk/

It gives the information in a slightly different format to allaboutdogfood.co.uk.

I really am the old cynic.

I went and had a look at the site. I typed in Nutriment Turkey, as it is the brand that I feed my two. On allaboutdogfood, it has a rating of 97% for nutritional value. Petfoodexpert rates in at 78%, Quite a substantial difference.

What caught my attention was the raw food listed on the landing page. Seems like a random selection based on score value. The ROR brand comes in at 94%.

Dig a little deeper and you realise that the petfoodexpert and ROR websites are identical. Same privacy statement, same owner (Pet Family Limited) and the same address is Crawley.

I'll stick to allaboutdogfood for impartial advice. Bit disingenuous to set up the scoring in such a way that your own product comes out on top. Very misleading.

I offer my advice freely, but I am not an expert, breeder, groomer or behaviourist. It is simply my experience of raising pups in a way that seems to make sense.
