Product review - Pedigree Dog Food
 Pedigree
is part of the Masterfoods empire which includes such pet foods
as Cesar, Chappie, Frolic, Pal, Pedigree, James Wellbeloved and
Royal Canin. Their research centre, Waltham
has been involved with research into pets and nutrition for many
years, and in this regard is often looked on in the same light as
Iams/Eukanuba and Hills who also conduct (or have conducted) experiments
on dogs and cats.
Pedigree Pet Foods are huge in the UK, mainly due to excellent
marketing and a good relationship with the major supermarkets -
you cannot get away from the brand!
A 15kg bag of Pedigree adult dog food will cost you around £24
which places it not too far away from what we would call 'more natural'
foods, where the ingredient states which meat and cereals have been
used, and the food is naturally preserved.
It has to be said that Pedigree fails on several counts when looked
at as a quality food. It includes animal and vegetable derivatives,
un-named cereals and meat source, and artificial preservatives and
colours (including tartrazine which is no longer used for human
food)
And yet a lot of Pedigree is sold and it obviously suits a lot
of dogs.
If you want good discounts of Pedigree then we would suggest looking
