Product review - Autarky Dog Food

Autarky have sort of led the way in exploiting the 'working dog' zero VAT rule on dog food. Technically I believe it should be properly VAT rated because it is targeted at all dogs rather than greyhounds and working dogs, but the government don't seem to mind so the customer is the winner by 15%!

What can you say other than it's a good quality, naturally preserved food at silly prices! You can buy a 15kg bag of Autarky at around £17.99 - Compare that with Burns Pet Nutrition at £47 and you have to ask the question 'Why?!'

Let's look at an example of the ingredients used in the Autarky products:
