Hi
The dilemma a few seem to be facing at the moment
Ultimately you should feed your dog on what suits them best. Mommy started a very interesting thread a little while ago highlighting the behaviour of some of the big companies (not at all nice) - you can find out more by following the link:
http://www.labradorforums.co.uk/modules.php?name=Forums&file=viewtopic&t=2918
Quite a few members have switched their dog over to Burns, I have finally managed to identify local stockists, and have started introducing it into her diet this evening.
I personally like to feed wet so am hoping to settle on a mixture of Naturediet and hopefully Burns (currently using James WellBeloved as I couldn't get hold of Burns) and there is no doubt there has been a change in her condition, although it is too early to tell whether this was because she came into season around the same time, time will tell. I have also started mixing fresh veg in one or two meals a week.
Ultimately, until Hally shed her coat a few months ago, she was in good condition, and if she wasn't thriving, I would look at switching back to her previous diet. That said, all the early signs indicate that this is unlikely to be necessary, at the moment she seems in the best condition I have seen.
A lot depends on your dogs age, and what you can obtain locally, but I am sure you will get loads of advice and positive feedback on the recent diet changes going on amongst members, you are in the right place

I have fed Herbie on Burns food since last October and personally, I wouldn't consider giving him anything else. Apart from the fact that it doesn't contain any artificial ingredients at all and is a holistic food and also GMO free, Herbie absolutely loves it.
Have a look at the website: www.burns-pet-nutrition.co.uk
Best wishes,
Mish

I have also switched Lucy to Burns and although she was in good condition before she seems even better now Could be a coincidence but she is also shedding less which is a bonus

I am currently on the switch from Pedigree puppy mix to Burns. Majic had started to go loopy on Pedigree so after posting a question on here Burns came up quite regularly. Majic is now on a mix of Burns and Pedigree to go completely onto Burns in a few days but all she does is eat the Burns and leave the Pedigree, she knows what she likes.

Since Charlie has been with us, he has been on Burns. It's nearly 3 weeks and he's doing brilliantly on it!
We are now is the process of changing Harvey over to it!
