Opens the ranking of the most deserving Eukanuba Adult Dry Dog Food For Large Breed, designed for large dogs aged 1 to 6 years. The manufacturer has released several flavors, balancing each version. According to him, the product restores cartilage tissue, stimulates the digestive system. With regular consumption, the food increases endurance, forms healthy bones. The composition contains Omega-3 and Omega-6, thanks to which the skin and coat improve. Beet pulp acts as fiber. Carbohydrates regulate blood sugar levels.

Buyers say that pets eat food with pleasure, there is no smell from the mouth. And others complain of allergies, because the composition contains chicken meat. The food is intended only for healthy dogs, it is not suitable for sensitive pets. It's a little strange that in packs with lamb and salmon flavors, chicken is in the first place. If rice is declared on the package, there will be corn for volume. It is necessary to follow the dosage exactly, otherwise the dog will start to get fat.The food is very nutritious and contains a lot of protein.

Arden Grange Sensitive is specially formulated for adult dogs with digestive issues and sensitive skin. Instead of the usual cereals, the manufacturer added white fish, from which the pet receives fatty acids and proteins. High-quality protein is the main advantage of the product.

It is often used by manufacturers, as it is easily digestible and contains substances that are beneficial for the skin. Some advise food for aging dogs because of the complex of vitamins for joints and ligaments.

Buyers say that pets like the product, they do not refuse it. Although the smell is very strong, fishy. The fiber is beet pulp, which improves digestion. Although it does not boast nutritional properties, it is often added to reduce the cost. The bigger reason we didn't rank the food higher is because of the chicken digest in the formula. Veterinarians consider it a low-quality offal. Because of it, the coat can fade, it is better to give vitamins along with the food.
