Does your dog have bad breath or teeth?

Chappie
by Beryl -
Really pleased with the service and price of the dog food. . Will definitely be using pet shop.co.Uk again.
Easily digested and tasty
by JT -
Our elderly Glen of Imaal has been suffering from digestive problems - especially if she is given some of the cheaper brands of dog food. James Wellbeloved fish and rice for senior dogs seems to suit her well and she loves it (although she can smell a little fishy for a very short while afterwards). Now we are all happy!
Happy with purchase and would recommend

James Wellbeloved Dog Food

Package delivered within the stated time limit and provided at a competitive price. Can't ask for anything more!
all round great
by Benjamin Richards
This food is great, I feed my Labrador who has a sensitive stomach and a bit tubby, Vet's suggested this even though he is only 5 year old because its low fat and good for this tummy, and the delivery is unbelievable, I ordered on the Thursday and was here on the Friday, nearly Christmas to so really impressed.
Can't beat JWB for dry dog food
by Caden Rose
James Wellbeloved food is excellent. We feed two dogs on JWB and they are both healthier and their coats are better looking and shinier than they were before we started to use JWB. One hound has been on it for about 4 years and the other one for about 16 weeks (after he started being fussy about the other stuff he had been fed on by his previous carers). I would not hesitate to recommend any of the JWB dry food and can specifically recommend both the Senior and Puppy versions of all their flavours (although the fish and rice one seems to smell more like fish than the others do of their main flavours). petshop.co.uk here can provide the large bags (15kg) significantly cheaper than the pet shops so it's always worth checking out who has the offers and the best prices at the point you are looking to buy.
Good Dog Food
by Caleb Graham
This seems to be an excellent food and my dog loves it. The only reason I did not give it a "5 Star" rating is because of the price, which I think is very high.
Old Mother Hubbard
by Lucas Cox
Old Mother Hubbard need not go to her cupboard to fetch poor doggy a bone<br>For when she went there, the dog wasn't there<br>He was purchasing 'James Wellbeloved' on his own!<br><br>Lovely product for my older dog and good value for money too!
GWB dog food
by Jayden Robertson
Great value for money as my dog is a border terrier a bag this size lasts for approx 6 months & maintains its crispness & my dog loves it!
Four Stars dog food
by Owen Hunter
Dogs are a picture of Health, delivery a little slow tho.
Would Highly Recommend
by Ryan Powell
Excellent food, i have one very fussy eater of a collie x german shepherd and this is about the only thing he will eat.
WORTH EVERY PENNY!!!
by Noah Richardson
I personally don't love it (the price) but the difference it has made to our labradors skin and coat in a short space of time, is really noticeable...and she doesn't get 'itchy' anymore, she looks great..
Senior Staff Seems Unimpressed but I Love it!!
by Logan Hunt
Having a sensitive old Staffie (aged12) with an extremely sensitive stomach, this is the only dried food that does not give him BAD (i'm talking Napalm-stylee) wind. For that I am truly grateful. However, HE is not so keen on it . He does not wolf it down like other products we have tried. In the end, when he is hungry enough he eats it, but I imagine it is a bit bland for him. I would love some small sample packs of the other Senior range flavours to see if that is what it is, but loathe to pay out for the 1.5/2kg bags and he does not like them, or they upset his tummy.
Good quality dog food at a reduced price
by Mason Fox
My dog is a Golden Retriever and will eat almost anything (including horse manure - yuk) but the breeder recommended James Wellbeloved products and I have mostly stuck with them from when she was a puppy. I think the fish one is potentially better for dog and she certainly seems to like it. I cannot say whether her coat is shinier or she is in better shape from eating this food when compared with others because she has always been fed on this (along with some tinned meat with each meal and various treats to keep things interesting for her) but she is now eight years old and is in good health according to the vet, so that can't be bad.<br><br>I have a policy when buying anything of looking for the best quality product and then shopping around to obtain it at a bargain price and I have yet to find better dog food than this at a cheaper price elsewhere, when one considers the 'free' delivery cost if one subscribe the bottomless bowl on petshop.co.uk.
James Wellbeloved Senior Fish and Rice Kibble
by William Reid
See my review of the Lamb and Rice Kibble. Nothing to add to that review, except that our dogs appear to like this one just as much.
Good for any dog with dodgy stomach
by Jayce Khan
Excellent for my dog who only eats fish products! But I like it because there are no chemicals and harsh colourings which are very bad for any dog- but this is also very good for his stomach
James Wellbeloved Fish kibble
by Luke Lloyd
Changed to fish as my dog stopped eating the lamb and rice kibble. He loves the change. Good to see him eating again.
good quality
by Gabriel Stevens
Prompt delivery, good quality product
Five Stars dog food
by Daniel Rogers
Dog loves it, and healthy ingredients.
Great for dogs with food allergies…
by Aiden Collins
I've been feeding my 9 year old Collie cross on this food for over 3 years now and she loves it. I give it to her with a bit of chopped up liver and the juice from it. The senior fish and rice complete food is best for her as it contains glucosamine and condroitin (which is helpful for her joints/mobility) it's lower in fat than the adult variety, contains no wheat (which she seems to be a little intolerant with) so her poohs are really easy to pick up and the company is animal friendly unlike ones like Iams (who perform cruel tests on animals).
