You can just give the dry food straight to your dog in a bowl. Always follow the packet feeding guidelines so that you know how much to feed.
So, Is it a good food to buy?
A great food that can be fed to support your senior dog’s health and needs. The packaging is honest about the ingredients. Feeding method is incredibly easy and the product is overall well priced.
Would it be agreeable with my dog?
Does your dog have bad breath or teeth?
The dry food is made into kibble (small round biscuit like peices) which the dog bites and chews to eat; when this happens the kibble actually helps to keep the teeth clean and remove tartar! So, if your dog has bad breath and teeth this could be helped massively by using a dry feed.
Does your dog have a dull or rough coat?
The diet contains fish oils and specific vitamins for added skin and coat nourishment.
