    Hi there,
    I have been feeding my dogs Burns for the last few months and
    have noticed a massive difference in their overall appearance.
    i feed it to my 2 dogs. one who is nearly 13 and the other is roughly 2yrs or younger.

    They are fussy, and have of late started to get bored or not as interested in their food.
    they still wolf it down after a while.

    I have been looking online at "taste of wild" but im a little concerned in the difference in fat and protein content of the 2 brands.

    does anyone feed this brand to a senior and young dog?
    why is the protein and fat content higher?

    fat 18.0 %
    food energy 3719.0 kcal/kg
    omega-3 fats 0.3 %
    phosphorus 1.4 %
    selenium 0.4 mg/kg
    calcium 2.1 %
    fiber 3.0 %
    moisture 10.0 %
    omega-6 fats 2.8 %
    protein 32.0 %
    vitamin E (tocopherol) 150.0 IE/kg


    and burns


    ash 7.0 %
    calcium 1.39 %
    copper 15.0 mg/kg
    fat 7.5 %
    fiber 2.0 %
    magnesium 0.1 %
    moisture 8.0 %
    phosphorus 0.83 %
    protein 18.5 %
    sodium 0.19 %


    Is it true that as a dog gets older they need less fat and protein???

    :confused::confused::confused:

    thanks
