Brilliant Shep - big thanks


Read the label SITN, because I am into reading dog food labels big time at the moment. Sounds just the job.

My working dogs always did well on Autarky or Spillers.  Currently feeding a locallly made brand, Futures.

Just steer well clear of anything with coloured bits - all that green, red, yellow ??? - is doing them no good at all.
