Advantages: Quick & Easy

Disadvantages: Too much jelly, high in oils & fat

This is a complete pet food for dogs and comes in a tin with a ring pull on the lid for easy opening. The label is black with a border collie on the front. Each flavour has its own distinct colour band around the label, this one is yellow. It also tells you that it has vitamin & mineral enriched.

--------------------
So what's in it?
--------------------
The label reads as follows: minimum 4% chicken, minerals, with colourants: EC Additives.

It has 80% moisture, 8.5% protein, oils & fats 5.5%, ash 2.5%, fibre 0.4%.

Feeding Guide
---------------------
If you have a small dog and only feeding this food you will need 2 cans a day, for a medium dog 2 - 4 cans, a large dog 4 - 7 cans.

Each can is 400g and costs £0.43 per can. Can also be bought in multi-packs of different sizes.

What's It Like?
--------------------
On opening the tin there was a lot of jelly, in fact it was like the tin had been coated in jelly then the food put in the middle. On finally getting the meat out of the tin there were lots of chunks of meat, all a very light grey in colour. I really did not like the smell of this one.

This tin seems to have a higher percentage of oils & fats than the other flavours in the range.

Nemo didn't seem to like this food too much. He ate it but not as quickly as the ones in gravy. The texture of this one just did not look at all appetising so I'll not be buying him this one again.
