Reviews
My 9 month Pug wasn’t sure at first and he’s been on the same food since we had him so it was a big change. Needn’t have worried though… he loved it!
The bag was a generous size, the kibbles smelt nice and meaty, and there wasn’t a great deal of dust, like some other brands.
He was a bit windy the first day but maybe that was the digestive bit doing its thing, it soon settled and he’s really enjoying it. I’d definitely recommend for a happy chap!
As soon as my puppy smelt the kibble he couldn't wait to take his first bite and munched it all down in no time having it for breakfast, lunch and tea. He seems more active and loves trying to find the kibble pieces I've hidden in his toys. Definitely making this one of his staples going forward.
We have a very fussy eating cockapoo called Bella. We got of to a great start with this food. the kibble size was perfect and easy for her to eat. she had the food with no issues at all and really emptied her bowl on every feed. overall a happy pet and a happy owner
Roxy is a 16-week-old miniature labradoodle who's extremely picky about her food and I've had to try different brands in the past. As soon as she was introduced to Purina Beta
Puppy Small Breed Dry Dog Food with Chicken, she was hooked! She ate it instantly and wanted more. The health benefits of this food make this an extra triumph. Top marks from Roxy.
