About this deal

Onto the chunky, jellified or gravy-drizzled slurp fest that defines the best wet dog food. For this important test we compared Lily’s Kitchen Fishy Fish Pie with Pooch & Mutt Fish, Potato & Pea Wet Food .

After following the above steps, your pooch should be looking and feeling pampered, soft and fancy free - but if their coat and skin still seems less than its best, talk to your vet about other potential causes of the problem. While Burns’ contains none, Pooch & Mutt’s food contains probiotics and prebiotics, essential for a dog’s healthy gut biome and for boosting digestion and immunity. You may think your dog’s hairdo is intended purely for warmth and a side of cuteness, but it’s actually a big indicator of physical health. Just like humans, dogs have different hair types - from curly, fluffy or coarse to long-haired and short-haired - and therefore, variable signs of whether their coat is in a good or iffy condition. Be sure to read up on how your dog’s coat should look and feel based on their breed, and do everything possible to ensure they feel light, comfortable and relaxed in their own skin. Put simply, a pooch with a sensitive tum needs dietary help to maintain a harmonious, balanced gut microbiome. A boost of probiotics and prebiotics helps support the ‘good bacteria’ in their gut, protecting their immunity and allowing proper nutrient absorption. Biotin for dogs is a complex B vitamin proven to improve dogs’ coat and skin (4), as well as essential for maintaining processes in your dog’s body such as muscle formation, healthy digestion and thyroid function. As well as other signs, a biotin deficiency can show up in dogs through dry, scaly skin, a scruffy or unkempt appearance, brittle fur, skin lesions and excessive shedding.

Fish oil is our number one recommendation for a gorgeous coat as it’s a real doggy wonder product. It’s rich with omega 3 fatty acids essential for a nourished coat and healthy skin - so much so, that a dry coat and itchiness can be indicative of an omega 3 deficiency in your dog’s diet. As a powerful anti-inflammatory, omega 3 is also great for dogs’ joints, mobility and heart health (1)(2), so you can’t go wrong with a supplement such as our Salmon Oil for dogs. Pooch & Mutt Vet Linda said ‘Feeding a diet such as Pooch & Mutt Soft & Shiny all year round can go a long way towards reducing flares and minimising symptoms. A dog’s allergies cannot usually be cured but with the right medical treatment and diet, dogs should be able to lead a normal and happy life. Dolly has enjoyed taking Pooch and Mutt’s Salmon Oil supplement, which is sold in a 500 ml bottle. Omega oils have been confirmed to be essential for growth since the 1930s, and she has been happily taking this supplement every day. I can already see a difference in her skin and coat quality. She seems very happy when she is eating it too. I did have a sniff, and it doesn’t really smell of anything to me, which is great as I didn’t want a constant whiff of salmon in the house! Finally, to help a senior dog have the best quality of life, the addition of supplements and nutraceuticals can have a positive impact on their ageing body and functions. It’s also key to know exactly what you’re feeding puppies, so that if they react badly to a meal, you can clearly read the label to investigate the ingredients.

For this reason we've calculated the approximate 'as fed' percentages for the main ingredient categories in the finished product. There was a guy, called Guy Blaskey (our incredible founder). After learning of his dog Cookie’s hip dysplasia, he decided to treat her with a natural joint supplement for horses - and the results were fur-raising. Cookie led a happy, zoomie-filled life for another 11 years, with no need for a hip replacement! This, quite literally, gave Guy food for thought. Working with top UK nutritionists, he expertly crafted a range to cut out the junk of mass-produced pet foods, and include positive nutrition such as supplements and nutraceuticals to enable pooches to live happy, healthy lives. Finally, what about those added health boosts? Probiotics and prebiotics are a dog owner’s secret weapon in keeping their dog’s gut biome balanced, as they support the essential ‘friendly bacteria’ a dog needs for smooth digestion and immune function. Dogs don’t need to be bathed as much as humans - their delicate skin needs time to produce its own natural oils, and they’re relatively adept at cleaning themselves. Bathing your dog every three months is a fail-safe option for most breeds - unless your dog gets particularly messy on a regular basis (you live in the muddy countryside, or if it’s long-haired, for example) and could benefit from a bath more often.

The best thing about these treats is that they’re healthy–they’re wheat-free, junk-free, and contain charcoal to absorb any gas caused by flatulence to make sure my dog has regular stools. They also include chicory (a natural prebiotic) and parsley (a traditional digestive aid). It’s a high five from Dolly for these! Skin & Coat (formerly ‘Soft & Shiny’) is a vet recommended, premium, grain-free, complete dry food for those dogs that have sensitive skin prone to dry or itchy skin or who may need a little bit of help developing their glossy coat. Dogs with sensitive skin benefit from supplements for skin and hydration. Collagen as well as omega fatty acids are great examples of this. The meat in Pedigree’s Dry Vital is also ‘meat and animal derivatives’, which means it can contain things like feathers, beaks and bones. Next we compared meat percentage , as another hallmark of a high quality pet food is having a higher whole meat content.
