Do you want a healthy and good looking pet but don't want to spend the earth? Check out the range from Burns Pet Nutrition & Organipets - not just a very good food at a very good price but an excellent hypoallergenic food with no nasty additives! Less bulking agents means more goodness per measure and less to shovel up. You only feed 10g per Kg of weight of the average dog - 30%-50% less than many other brands. This is an excellent quality food formulated to provide all the nutrition your pet needs avoiding ingredients found  in many other brands that often  cause allergic reactions resulting in excessive scratching, nibbling and dry lifeless coats.
 The overall cost works out less too!

Burns Dog Food REAL FOOD FOR DOGS
    

Burns is an holistic approach to health and nutrition for your pets.

The main ingredient is Brown Rice with the main source of protein being Chicken or Ocean Fish. Sunflower oil, chicken oil and fish oil are high in essential fatty acids, which are important in preventin skin disease. Seawees provides a source of organic minerals.

The raw materails are preserved with nutural antioxidants and rosemary oil rather than chemical preservatives. All ingredients are stated by name rather that vague descriptions. Burns Real Food does not use "animal derivatives", battery chicken meat, wheat, soya, sugar, genetically modified ingredients, colourings or flavourings

The benefits will speak for themselves. Owners have reported after changing to Burns Real Food that, fur stops falling out, skin problems clear up, the coat is glossier, unpleasant odours disappear and older dogs become less stiff. It is more palatable that other dried foods and more economical to feed than other dried foods. There is also less waste to clear up at the other end!!!
