If your one of the many pet owners who consider your dog or cat to be a real member of the family or, dare I even say it, a replacement child (and that's what the pet food industry says that we're doing - treating our pets like little people!) then there's a tendency to think that food-wise they ought to be getting something akin to home cooking.
And that's where Natures Menu and one or two other brands step in and say 'Take a look at our ingredients and range and give us a try!'
Couple of things though - These are not cheap foods by any means. If you've a toy breed dog then you probably won't feel the strain on your purse quite so badly as a labrador owner! One way of using these types of food is alongside a dry complete food, as a complementary food, and that way they don't seem so expensive and you can still give your pet a treat.
Natures Menu produce good quality foods - they work out more expensive than, say, Naturediet, but offer a good alternative with natural ingredients.
As with all natural wet foods it's going to be expensive to feed anything other than a small breed dog. The smaller 300g pouches are around £1.59
Based not just on quality of ingredients, but if it seems to offer value for money!
