He don't let me brush his teeth! Hes got some Tropiclean teeth cleaning gel but he hates it! I think it might be coz its minty, do you think I should try a 'tastier' toothpaste? Maybe he would let me do it if it tastes nice Idk www.petsathome.com/shop/wainwright-s-adult-tray-dog-food-with-turkey-and-rice-395gm-18441Small Dog 5-12kg: ¼ to ⅓ Tray Hes under 5kg so does 1/4 of a tray sound about right? If he has 1/4 of a tray a day then 1 tray will last me 4 days, longer if i'm doing a rmb meal 3 evening a week Naturediet recommends 2kg - 140g 4kg - 250g Hes aroung 3kg just over so i'd estimate about 150-170g and they are 390g each So.....I think that works out as roughly 1/4 So based on feeding 1/4 per day it works out as 3 trays per week when feeding 3 rmb meals Wainwrights = £8.79 for a 12 pack = £2.19 per week, 0.31p a day Naturediet = £14.49 for a 18 pack = £2.89 per week, 0.41p a day Wainwrights would last a month, Naturediet 5 weeks. Not alot in it tbh only 10p a day difference

I keep finding bits of plastic in the naturediet when im feeding dogs at work! I think natures harvest is supposed to be good too Atm im feeding 2 of them Ziwipeak kibble every morning, chicken wings 4 nights a week and occasionally a tin of Arden Grange or Ziwipeak, think it would work out about £15 a month for one dog? Brushing their teeth is a nightmare so i've been using plaque off and my boss has got one of those scrapy things so going to see if she will try getting some of the build up off with that

Well i've only been using it a few months but i think its helping. Half a tub has lasted 4 dogs about 2 months. I have no idea how much it costs normally, I got given the tub for free but if its much cheaper at the wholesalers i'll let u know

Oooh thats good to know. Which size tub is it you have? 60g or 180g? And how much of it do you give your little guys? According to the guide, 1/2 a scoop for small dogs under 25lbs? But going by what you said a tub would last me aaaaages for my little guy I'd love to know how much tubs go for at the wholesalers. I'd probably be interested in a couple of tubs

I think i have the 60g tub. Yeh they have half a scoop a day, and i give my mums dog a whole scoop too. I think 1 tub would last 1 chi at least 6 months Hopefully i can get to the wholesalers this week
