if your dog is happy on burns then stick with it its a good food.

i feed my lot raw.

Thank you for the reply, My eldest GSd just wouldnt take to raw so i gave up, he used to look at me like i was trying to give him poison bless, so thats why i have stuck to complete food. I guess like humans we are all different although I have friends who swear by BARF.
Glad she is on a good make for Collies too as it can be tricky as not all breeds take to a certain brand do they

dont get suckered in by certain breeds should eat certain foods. i've had all manner of dogs on burns and all have done very well on it.

My lot are currently on mixer and raw mince together with a variety of bones, chicken wings etc. Only been on this for about 3 months but all dogs looking fantastic on it and my youngest is actually enjoying her food.

I have fed Burns, Arden Grange, Genesis and Orijen all that I would feed again if i went back to complete for some reason.

I feed mine raw, but going to DINAS last week I didn't have enough room in fridge for all raw, so bought a small bag of Burns, they only had it for a couple of days, but poos definately not as firm and smellier than on their raw diet.

well so far so good, she likes Burns.
At what age can you feed raw from with a BC. I am still in GSD mode at the moment, but am getting used to her, she is so cute, and such a different personality than the boys are

I put my 2 girls on it as soon as they came home at 7 weeks old.
