Product review - Wafcol
Wafcol
in some ways is a confusing brand, producing as they do both cheap
and better quality recipes within their range - it's almost as if
they cannot decide who their target customers are. They also produce
a vegetarian food, which will be of interest to a small percentage
of the dog owning population.
The main downside of Wafcol is their inclusion of soya, which is
not generally considered to be one of the best ingredients for digestibility,
and generally used for bulking up the protein content of a food
more cheaply than using meat.
The only other intruiging thing about their recipes is the low
fat analysis, which is about half that of comparable foods.
Expect to pay around £25 - £42 for a 15kg bag, depending
which end of their range your choosing!

For All Adult Dogs
Nutritionally balanced for optimum health
Meat Free
Gentle on the digestion
Vegetarian Society approved (symbol)
Wafcol Vegetarian is an outstanding food, which has been
carefully formulated to meet all the nutritional requirements
of the active adult dog.
Dogs, just like humans, are omnivores and so are not necessarily
dependent upon meat as a source of protein. Wafcol Vegetarian
is a nutritionally balanced, complete food that has been developed
for when meat cannot be fed for health or ethical reasons
or as a great alternative to offer your dog variety.
Wafcol Vegetarian conforms to the standards of the British
Vegetarian Society and excludes all meat and meat products
and so is useful in the treatment of dogs where a meat allergy
is suspected.
Ingredients:
Whole wheat flour, soya, wheat bran, vegetable oil, maize
flour, yeast, vitamins and minerals.
