Hi all, just wondering what anyone else feeds there dogs (dry) just I've had mine on redmills, but bedlington x started to lose hair, and was told it could be down to the bait, any advice would be greatley appreciated, HD

I'm currently flicking between Redmills, Sneyds Special and Chudleys Working Crunch.

 

My dog looks well on them all, the special made him hypo I think due to all the colours.

 

Sneyds do a premium which is wheat gluten free and should be a top quality food.

 

I'm back on redmills now.

try using somthing with less protein most people use red mills racer before raceing ,hunting and that type of thing bit like a protein drink for weight lifters just use it when they need it so ive been told by people that do use it

so do you lads who feed their dogs redmills and other greyhound food still feed them the same in the summer?

[NOOK/ANNA 96]

My 2 are on Beta Greyhound at min and are doing great on it. Found the redmills gave them loose stools.

I switched to Chudleys Greyhound racer about 2 months ago and mine all look in the peak of condition, glossy coats (no dandruff even my black one you can see your reflection on her), plenty of energy but not hyper and that includes the pet dogs as well. None of them have gained weight or become hyped, stools are dark, firm and a lot less in number

Only one will be a working dog, she's 9 months at the moment, yet this food suits all of mine and i won't be changing it to anything else.

 

 

Buy it online from http://www.greyhoundsuperstore.co.uk/displayprods.asp?curpage=2&qid=127&qdbquery=searchprodbycat&qtitle=Food as it's cheapest place i've found (and it lasts ages in comparrison to other brands).

no because they dont need the protein

[North east finest 105]

Ive got mine on a cheap dry mix 24 % protein mixed with a vegtable broth and either a pound of tripe or minced liver

I still keep mine on high protien gain 28 or dr johns platinum which is 20% and just drop them of the mince weather thats chicken or tripe but now ive started the pre season build up ive started to bring the mince back into there diet . Im not saying this will work for everybody just the way i do it and its worked for me mate. Atb rj

chudleys greyhound racer .. feed all year round

[rocky1 942]

i,ve drop from a 24% snedyswonderdog to 20% snedyswonderdog and drop the the tripe,mince,chicken untill i start working them and then they will move back up 24% and the raw next month

[Shazza 52]

Same as Rubyjet, if the dogs look great, don't gain weight or start bouncing off the walls with unspent energy then i don't see any reason to change thier food even if the excercise levels drop.

 

Will be Chudleys greyhound racer all year round for mine too unless things change and i have to drop it. Will see how mine gets on this season, i can always add raw meat if she needs extra
