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.
Price-wise, Wafcol ranges in price for a 15kg bag from around £20-48,
so it could be said that they have something for everyone - a cheap
and cheerful recipe and some better quality foods for the more discerning
dog!
