i use chudleys working crunch at £13 a sack

[boyo 1,398]

try gain 28% .used it all and found it the best by far waste is less and much firmer to deal with and the dogs thrive and run well on it and the ingrediants are very similar to aussie formula but gain is only £10 or£11 a bag depending where you buy it also the bags are very consistant in their content so you know where you are with it i run my greyhounds and lurchers on it .

[smiffyuk2003 5]

i just use greyhound maintenance, good protein content oil and vitamin.. there is better but this on £13 a bag which is cheaper than most with the same content.

red mills xcel 32 is the best ive seen but its expensive, i try to look for a good balance.

 

use this chart i did and compare.i know there is alot better out there but for the money i think this is a good one.

Red Mills Racer

I have always fed mine on CSJ their healthy dogs, £19 for a sack.

[stones 23]

I get 3 sacks at a time Beta greyhound 29%, Pets at home active worker 24% and Wagg complete worker 23% mix the lot together and store it in steel bins in a cool place.I feed this to both whippet and terriers and find it produces good copact stools and have also fed it to the ferrets as a standby occasionaly you just have to make sure fresh water is available at all times.

Just to let you know mate, if your paying £13/sack for working crunch your being ripped off, you are paying VAT on that and you dont pay VAT on working dog food BY LAW...

i have always fed my dogs red mills (soaked in water) with a lb of cooked minced pet beef seems to put a good back on the dogs and always finish it off no matter how much i put in for them

i use this when im not working the dogs as its basicly the same nutrition as pet food but gives a better coat. but its rubbish for working dogs just doesnt provide enough energy i aim to feed as much meat with a dry food for the vitamins and minerals they still need for healthy joints but you want to aim for 25-30% protein with this my dogs have the energy to go all night with a high oil % so when energy levels are low your dogs body feed s on the oils from the food rather than your dogs body mass hence providing a well kept in shape dog at all times.

most greyhound supplies stock gain also most shops will get it in for you if you ask .

Chudleys, Beta and Gain are worth getting.

 

Tried Red Mills once and wasn't happy with the outcome, dogs sh!tting like cows,[loose and a greeny colour].

The dogs on a mix of red mills with butcher dog tripe mix and tinned fish. he gets this twice a day.

the pups on beta puppy lamb & rice mixed with butchers puppy tripe mix, she gets this 4 times a day.
