Reviewed by Joanna Cooper and her dog Coco: "I’ve been feeding my Bichon Frise James Wellbeloved kibble since he was a puppy and it’s been brilliant. He’s never poorly, joints are great and his fur is superb. He’s always loved the Turkey variety, small breed, so that’s what I’ve stuck with. Now he’s twelve years old (human years) I’ve switched to the Senior variety, which is less calories, so he can still have his full bowl without getting overweight.

"I give him a very tiny amount of dry kibble in the morning for breakfast, which he sometimes doesn’t eat as he’s not hungry. He has a full bowl in the evenings, and I splash a couple of table spoons of hot water onto the kibble to release the gravy and aroma, then he tucks in and eats it all."

Reviews are positive for this wet puppy food. Even fussy pups enjoy it, and when used as a topper on kibble, it encourages them to eat their dry food too.
