Best tinned meat?

[GinaB]

that doesn't cost a fortune! I know that is somewhat pointless as I know cheaper tins are going to be good quality but I've learnt that a 400g tin of meat fills two Kongs perfectly!
I had been using Tesco supermeat but the last batch I got what dreadful and full of fat/gristle. I bought Butchers 'loaf in jelly' tins today but tbh the smell is turning me and I'm gagging filling the Kongs. Doesn't help I bought the tripe version! Doh.

So inexpensive 'loaf' style tinned meat suggestions would be fab!

Depends what you call cheap..wainwrights is good and natures best or something (its £1 a tin tho)

I would highly recommend chappie. People say it's not what they want to feed ( feed snobbery)but I have a dog with pancreatitis, it is pure in either fish or chicken and have no stomach worries. Use to use butchers tripe but that is far to fatty for him now, I wouldn't touch anything made by Waltham (chum etc)I worked for Waltham for 9 years as pet dietician that was 15 years ago but I was qualified and I will not feed it to my animals I know to much

Its hardly snobbery to want to feed your animals the best you can afford. Feed snobbery to me would be cooking steak for the dogs and eating turkey twizzlers your self.

As I say Equi I am qualified and people do poo poo cheaper dog brands for no good reason.

I can't remember whether I've ever fed a can of tinned meat, or not, and I'm with you in that I fail to see how one brand, in reality, would be any different from another. I suspect that 'Horse' is the base compound of most of it, and Hounds don't seem to suffer too much.

Theyre all the same yeah i agree. science plan for example is a load of tosh, but the cheaper they are the worse they are in a lot of cases.

Does Chappie come in loaf style? The Butchers tripe definitely has a gathering of fat in the bottom of the tin, think it's the smell of it turning me! Especially when I'm rinsing the cans to recycle them.

My dogs are raw fed but have kongs in the morning when I leave. I fill them with the wainwrights trays and freeze them overnight. I used to use the grain free ones but just by the big multipack now as they don't have rice allergies and it is such a small part of their diet.

I feed Animonda Carny - under £1 a tin from here: http://www.zooplus.co.uk/shop/pet_food/animonda_pet_food/animonda_canned/369074#composition
(and delivered free ) Like the fact that you can clearly see whats in it, and there are recognisable meaty lumps - as in bits of organs Feed the cat version too and the all love it.

The pets at home own brand working dog cans are under a fiver for a case of twelve and contain no grains. They're loaf style as wel.
