Review: Scrumbles Complete Dog Food: Salmon with Sweet Potato & Peas

Back

Overall Rating 4.5/5

Main ingredients: Salmon, Sweet Potato, Peas, Minerals and Slippery Elm Bark

Type: Complete Wet Dog Food for Puppies and Dogs (3 months and over)

Price: This worked out at between £13.50 and £12.83 (on subscription) for a week's supply (depending upon the size of your dog), which is more than other brands on the market, however the quality and nutritional value of their ingredients, as well as dog and owner satisfaction (more pick up-able doggy do's) means that overall this represents good value for money.

USP: First for gut health and containing high quality animal protein and proper ingredients, cutting out all of the junk as well as making great ethical commitments to recyclable packaging with recipes made in the UK.

The Good Kennel Guide's Verdict:

Our taste tester, Jack loved Scrumbles Complete Wet Dog Food in Salmon, Sweet Potato and Pea flavour, he was clearly very excited to see and taste the offering. Being a fan of strong flavours, he was not left disappointed and finished the bowl in one go without hesitation. It was good to see that this Complete Wet Dog Food packed a punch of flavour for our canine friend, but was not so strong in smell that it was too much for us owners- smiles all round. The meaty, and "real meat" consistency of the food shows the great quality of the ingredients. Jack also had much firmer stool afterwards- without giving too much detail, the slippery elm meant that he was able to go to the loo promptly when asked, and didnt seem to be either straining or desperate to go, as might be the case from other foods, which are less friendly on the tummy and bowel for our loveable hound. 

Pros:

Great for gut health which means less flatulence and pick-up-able poo

Passed the taste (and smell) test pleasing our doggy tester, without overpowering the owner

Nice, attractive meaty consistency- this food feels fresh! and your dog will love seeing their food coming out of the fridge (where they know all of the best food is stored!)

Cons:

Slightly more expensive than some brands on the market, though this is a more premium product- and this is well worth it given the comfort and additional support to gut health and general health that it provides.
