Which Food To Feed Two Cockers?

[padandmurph]

Can anyone give me advice as to what to feed my two cockers.  I've got a 20 month old and a 15 week old and would ideally like to get them on the same food if
possible.  At the moment the oldest one, Paddy, is being fed on tinned dog food with mixer and the youngest one, Murphy, is being fed on Eukanuba.  I'm finding the Eukanuba quite expensive - it seems I'm always popping to the pet shop for yet another bag.  

I took Paddy off dried food when he was a puppy because he ate my son's sock and was off his food, the only thing I could get him to eat was tinned and he's stayed on it ever since.

I'm going to the pet shop today to buy more supplies and thought I may as well get something they could both eat to introduce slowly.

Thanks in advance for any advice.  What a worry these dogs are!!!!!

Hi!

When we got Molo at 10 weeks (he is 5 months old, now), we were advised that he should be fed food especially designed for puppies while he was little, as they have different nutitional needs at this age than once they are adults. So you may have to buy diferent foods for them for a while.

I use Nutro, the brand advised by Molo's breeder, but I know that there are several currwent threads about the different types and brands of food people use - I think the choice is based on how the dog thrives and personal choice.

I have to admit that mine will eat anything i put infront of them. They are on a combination of dried food and tinned tesco own meat with mixer. and they woolf either down. We have had a kennel food before - they ate that - but i like the thought of them getting their chops round a nice meaty dinner!

You may need to gradully introduce a new diet for your dogs - not like my little cement mixers!!!!!!

I use Burns. You can feed them on minibites as a pup and an adult. Its expensive but good and you really don't give them that much (mine gets delivered as a 15kg bag).

Autarky are good and cheap as there's no VAT on it. CSJ are good and reasonably priced (only get it online) and they were very generous with their samples (link below):
