There was an extremely interesting article in the Daily Mail today about dog food. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article ... ghurt.html I think that most of us realise that a lot of commercially produced dog food is rubbish and we steer away from the obvious culprits. We prefer to feed a quality food and currently use Lily's kitchen which is really good but we would like to get back to a BARF diet which we did when Eddie (bless him) was still with us.
Our problem is Daisy who has had bladder stones and is on a special urinary diet with low calcium and low magnesium.
Anyway, as a result of the Daily Mail article I have had a good look around the Honey's website http://honeysrealdogfood.com/index.php and have been quite impressed. We have emailed them (they have a vet.) to see how Daisy would go and if the response is positive I think we will give them a try. I don't mind blending and mixing up my own BARF (although I hate green tripe) but this seems just so convenient.
Just as an aside, they sell chicken wings for £15.50 for 5 kg. I currently pay £4.00 a kg from Tesco so I'm thinking their pricing might be OK.

Re: Honey's Real Dog Food
My friends with 2 standards recommended Honey's to me - they do a really good book explaining it all
I haven't discounted BARFing in the future and Bonnie certainly enjoys some raw food (although not the raw lamb I offered yesterday, much preferred it cooked) but at the moment I don't feel ready to commit fully. I regularly give Bonnie raw chicken wings but a lack of freezer space prevents me benefiting from bulk-buying

Re: Honey's Real Dog Food
I am sure some of the FB folk feed Honey's but we haven't tried it.
We have arrived at Wolftucker after trying others. The biggest problem I had with NI and Nutriment was it is too minced and mushy for Rodders, he prefers his mince to look like mince. I would be interested to hear what Honey's is like though ;)

Re: Honey's Real Dog Food
My friend in Canada sent me a whole load of inffor on barf diets for dogs with renal issues My a'dale got renal failure when the specialist vet treating him for thyroid cancer overdosed him on vitamin d the damage can never be reversed but he is coping fine and on a barf diet. I will look up the email on my home computer and see if I can attach the links tomorrow.
