Bernie the Frenchie: W is for Wainwrights

W is for Wainwrights

Posted on Saturday, 26 April 2014

Oh my goodness! Only a few more posts and we will have completed the Blogging from A to Z Challenge!! Today we have 'W' so we thought, let's do a Wainwrights review!

My mum feeds me Wainwrights! I'm a fussy pup so to keep things interesting, I get a good mixture of both their wet and dry foods.

I tend to get one bowl of dry and one bowl of wet a day - two feeds in total!

Mum has been feeding me their Salmon & Potato kibble since I was a pup! She buys it in the 2kg bags. She switched me straight over to it when I was having trouble adjusting to Eden kibble. The Eden food was too high in protein for me and was causing me to be sick after every meal and in general gave me a terribly upset tummy. Mum chose this particular Wainwrights kibble as she had read that potato can be a little gentler on the tummy than rice. It seems to have worked for me - I was able to keep my food down and my poops righted themselves almost instantly. We really like the ingredients too. Lots of beneficial ingredients in there to keep me in tip-top condition and it tastes really nice too! I do love fish!

Composition:

Salmon 26% Ingredient(s): Salmon Fish Meal (26%), Potato Starch ( 26%), Sorghum (19%), Barley (10%), Rapeseed Oil (7%), Sugar Beet Pulp (6%), Whole Linseed (4%), Alfalfa (1%), Minerals (includes Yucca Extract 200mg.kg, Marigold Meal 50mg/kg, Rosemary Extract 5mg/kg), Seaweed (0.5%)

Price: £7.19

I've also been having their Turkey & Rice trays since I was little. Mum always buys the box of 12. This used to be mixed in with my dry but now they're given separately as I'm much better at eating everything in my bowl. We love that the ingredients are super simple with nothing unnecessary added. Did I mention and taste and texture are also fab?!

Composition:

Turkey (min.65%), Turkey Liver (min. 5%), Brown Rice (min. 5%), Minerals, Seaweed, Chicory Root.

Price: £9.99

Taste rating:

Mum recently started buying the Tuna with Rice & Veg pouches as a bit of a treat and to keep meal times exciting. These have become my ABSOLUTE FAVOURITE! As soon as I see mum take the pouches out the cupboard I start to drool uncontrollably.

Composition:

Tuna (45%) Ingredient(s): Tuna (45%), Rice (4%), Vegetables (including Peas 4% and Carrots 4%), Sunflower Oil, Minerals, Fish Oil (0.1%), Seaweed Extract (0.1%), Chicory Extract (0.01%), Green Tea Extract (0.01%)

Price: £0.65 each

Taste rating:

We can't really review the Duck & Rice kibble fairly as we've only just bought it to try it and it hasn't even been opened yet! Apart from it containing duck and brown rice, the rest of the ingredients are almost identical to the Salmon & Potato kibble. We shall let you know how it goes down ;)

Composition:

Duck 30% Ingredient(s): Brown Rice (38%), Duck (30%) (Duck Meal Meal, Duck Gravy), Barley (14%), Sugar Beet Pulp (8%), Rapeseed Oil (4%), Whole Linseed (3%), Alfalfa (1%), Minerals (includes Yucca Extract 200mg/kg, Marigold Meal 50mg/kg, Rosemary Extract 5mg/kg), Seaweed (0.5%)
