Thanks, MNHQ

Q1. I was aware of the Pedigree dog food prior to taking part and yes I have tried it before. My puppy Marley loves it and how I mix them both together. I also like the variety within the box.
Q2. My puppy loves the food. She loves the wet food seperate but havent tried her on the dry food on its own only because it says mixer so didnt know it was suitable.
Q3. Very likely to buy this again although my puppy does love the gravy flavours with the vegetables better than the normal gravy. yes she has a preference already hehe
Q4. I would definately recommend Pedigree to other pet owners there hasnt been a problem and seems to fit within our lifestyle. just enough in each pack for a puppy for each meal.
Q5. I havent looked at the app yet to be honest but I will get it. I however dont go on many apps apart from facebook and to check emails.
Q6. As above I cant comment as I havent tried it

Q1. Were you aware of Pedigree® dog food before taking part in this product test? If so, have you ever purchased it before?
Yes I was aware of Pedigree dog food and yes I have purchased many different Pedigree products for my dogs before.
Q2. What are your overall impressions of the Pedigree® Complete Feeding diet your dog tested? We’d love your thoughts on the complete diet as well as the individual products.
I think the complete feeding diet is great it reassures me that my dog is getting everything they need out of there diet. Plenty of nutrients and protein from a mix of wet and dry dog food as well as the occasional treats and Dentastix to look after their teeth. I regularly buy my dogs Dentastix and I think they're great and an essential part of a dogs diet as they help keep their teeth clean and stop plaque building up, its impossible to brush my dogs teeth so the Dentastix is a fab alternative to brushing and preventing gum disease. They also love them. The wet dog food in pouches they also enjoyed however I wouldn't buy the pouches again as they're quite small and I feel more for a small breed of dog. Were I buying these for my dog I would have to give him around 5 pouches a day as he's a medium sized dog I would buy the cans instead as they are larger and he won't need to be fed as many as the pouches. The dry dog food he really enjoyed as normally he can be fussy with certain dry food but he loved this. He also never experienced any tummy upset during switching his food to the complete Pedigree diet. Some other brands can give him an upset tummy and the runs!! None of that with this dog food though. The treats were a great little tasty treat for him when he was out on walks and made him behave a little better as he knew I had yummy treats in my pocket. They're always handy to have on you for training etc. Nice and small, perfect little tasty bites. Although my dog does love the bigger chews like the Jumbones or Dentaflex things. He also enjoys the Shmackos meaty sticks. All Pedigree products in the diet were a massive hit. He loved them all.
Q3. In future, how likely are you to consider regularly feeding the full Pedigree® diet that your dog tested to your dog? If not the full diet, which particular products would you consider and why?
I feel it would be quite expensive to feed both of my dogs this complete diet but I will continue to buy them the wet Pedigree dog food (just not the pouches, cans instead!) and the Dentastix. Will also most likely purchase various different Pedigree treats including the ones I trialled and would maybe buy the dry dog food if on offer or at a reasonable price. Wouldn't buy the pouches as I feel they're too small and would need to feed too many to my two dogs. Would end up being quite costly in the long run.
Q4. If it came up in conversation, would you recommend Pedigree® to other dog owners? If so, why? If not, why not?
Yes I would definitely recommend to other dog owners as I think Pedigree is one of the best brands of dog food and there is a fantastic range of products available all of which offer great benefits to your dog and provide them with all their daily dietry requirements.
Q5. What were your overall impressions of the Pedigree® Tracks app?
I thought the app was great and very helpful. I feel though the feeding part of the app is only really useful if you are feeding your dog Pedigree dog food. However the exercise part is fab I used it many times when I took my dog out for a walk to time how long he got. Its great there's different exercise options such as walking, garden play, off lead etc. It means I can see that my dog is getting the right amount of exercise every day. The diet part while feeding Pedigree dog food is also handy as it tells you how many calories and how much of dry and wet and treats/Dentasix a day your dog should be getting. The health check is another great feature to make sure your dog is in the best of health and getting the correct diet and excerise.
Q6. If it came up in conversation, would you recommend Pedigree® Tracks to other dog owners? If so, why? If not, why not?
Yes I would recommend the Pedigree Tracks app as it is a helpful tool to ensure your dog is getting the correct amount of exercise and the right amount of food/calories a day. I feel it's best when your feeding your dog a Pedigree diet but even if your not the exercise part of the app and health check etc is still great to have.

I trialled the Pedigree Complete diet with my male medium sized dog who is 3 years old and I tested the Pedigree wet pouches in Favourites (in Jelly) and Real Meals (in gravy), Pedigree Complete dry food, Dentastix for Medium dogs and Tasty Bites Cheese Nibbles and Tasty Bites Tasty Pockets treats.

Thank you for the opportunity to be a part of this product test. My dog has enjoyed every mouthful 😀

Q1. Were you aware of Pedigree® dog food before taking part in this product test? If so, have you ever purchased it before? Aware but had never bought
Q2. What are your overall impressions of the Pedigree® Complete Feeding diet your dog tested? We’d love your thoughts on the complete diet as well as the individual products. The dog loved the dentastix and the treats, and the treats have been great for training as hes been very incentivised by them. Unfortunatly, he has refused to eat the dry or wet food. I tried my other dog, and although he would eat the wet food it didn't agree with him.
Q3. In future, how likely are you to consider regularly feeding the full Pedigree® diet that your dog tested to your dog? If not the full diet, which particular products would you consider and why? Not the full diet, but I will buy the dentastix and treats
Q4. If it came up in conversation, would you recommend Pedigree® to other dog owners? If so, why? If not, why not? I couldn't comment on the full diet, but would recommend the treats
Q5. What were your overall impressions of the Pedigree® Tracks app? It was good, and though my dogs don't have weight problems I can see it would really help others, especially with small dogs
Q6. If it came up in conversation, would you recommend Pedigree® Tracks to other dog owners? If so, why? If not, why not? Yes

Q1. Were you aware of Pedigree® dog food before taking part in this product test? If so, have you ever purchased it before?

Yes, I was aware of Pedigree dog food, but I did not purchase it as it is more expensive than other pet food brands.

Q2. What are your overall impressions of the Pedigree® Complete Feeding diet your dog tested? We’d love your thoughts on the complete diet as well as the individual products.

When it arrived my dog was sniffing at the packs. She was really excited to try out the product and was pacing the floorboards waiting on her dinner. I tired out the app which was easy to use, but the reccomended feeding was to much for the dog. So we had to adjust it

Q3. In future, how likely are you to consider regularly feeding the full Pedigree® diet that your dog tested to your dog? If not the full diet, which particular products would you consider and why?

My dog was previously on a dry food diet only as per the vets reccomendation. I did notice that my dog was drinking alot more water. I have put this down to the high salt content and addictives in the wet food. Also the price is more expensive than the dry brand, but if it was on special offer I might purchase it. The dog loved the treats so will definately be purchasing them. I would use the dentastix, I thought they were great.

Q4. If it came up in conversation, would you recommend Pedigree® to other dog owners? If so, why? If not, why not?

I have discussed this and some of them said that they had previously tired pedigree but their dog was bloated. They said they would use the wet food if their dog was of their food as dogs did like the wet food, but they would not use it every day.

Q5. What were your overall impressions of the Pedigree® Tracks app?

It was easy to use. I did try to do as it said for the recommended diet, but it was to rcih for the dog and we had to adjust it to suit the dogs normal diet.

Q6. If it came up in conversation, would you recommend Pedigree® Tracks to other dog owners? If so, why? If not, why not?

Yes. It was good as a feeding and excersise guide

Q1. Were you aware of Pedigree® dog food before taking part in this product test? If so, have you ever purchased it before?
Yes, we are regular users of Dentastix

Q2. What are your overall impressions of the Pedigree® Complete Feeding diet your dog tested? We’d love your thoughts on the complete diet as well as the individual products.
I'm still on the fence, it's definitely easier and cheaper than the raw food diet we had our dog on previously, but there's been a few things which have made me wonder how healthy it really is by comparison to the raw food option

Q3. In future, how likely are you to consider regularly feeding the full Pedigree® diet that your dog tested to your dog? If not the full diet, which particular products would you consider and why?
We'll definitely continue to use Dentastix, we had moved on to a supermarket own brand version, and have noticed a marked improvement in his teeth since switching back to dentasix. We'll probably get the treats again, as he really likes them.

Q4. If it came up in conversation, would you recommend Pedigree® to other dog owners? If so, why? If not, why not?
I don't think I would. Our dog has noticeably lost weight since moving onto the pedigree diet, and prior to this was commented as being in perfect condition by our vet. I've also noticed his coat isn't as shiny as it was previously and he has a noticeable "dog" smell which he didn't have before and his breath stinks! We've upped his quantity of food to manage the weight loss. He also seems to get a runny sum when he's on the jelly pouches. I think maybe if a dog wasn't on a good quality raw food diet that the Pedigree diet could be a marked improvement, and I appreciate raw feeding isn't for everyone so I would probably recommend it to someone who was on a supermarket own brand range.

Q5. What were your overall impressions of the Pedigree® Tracks app?
Not overly impressed at all, it seems to offer nothing other than just a stop watch to track the amount of activity your dog does.

Q6. If it came up in conversation, would you recommend Pedigree® Tracks to other dog owners? If so, why? If not, why not?
It's a good app for figuring out what to feed your dog, but I really think the activity tracker part could use some more work, maybe include some GPS functionality to get a basic idea of how much the dog walks (but keep the on lead off lead options as off lead our dog probably covers 2-3 times what we do)

I was aware of pedigree but hadn't bought it before. My dog (a 2.5 year old pug) gobbled it up - there's not a lot that he doesn't eat though! The pouches were really easy to open and the food (especially the gravy one) looked much better than I expected and weren't too strong smelling. The dry food didn't give him runny poos which many do. He loves the dentastix, but they don't make any difference to his breath. I really liked the wet food so may consider using this in the future - I just wish there was more "proper" meat in them. He loves the treats so I will continue buying these. I would recommend Pedigree, but would say to check other foods to see what their meat content is - and to see how much is actually beef / chicken etc. I usually make my dogs food due to this reason. The app was useful for suggesting how much food to give, although this could have just been done through a website. The exercise suggested for my dog was far lower than he actually needs. I wouldn't recommend the app as there wasn't much useful information on it.

Q1. Were you aware of Pedigree® dog food before taking part in this product test? If so, have you ever purchased it before?
Yes, I was aware of pedigree. I had not bought the food, but I have bought treats previously.
Q2. What are your overall impressions of the Pedigree® Complete Feeding diet your dog tested? We’d love your thoughts on the complete diet as well as the individual products.
To be quite honest, the wet food seems fine, the dental stick are good. It's the first time we've tried the dry food and I'm not keen on the effects on my dog.
Q3. In future, how likely are you to consider regularly feeding the full Pedigree® diet that your dog tested to your dog? If not the full diet, which particular products would you consider and why?
I think we will be returning to our previously preferred food. Since eating the full Pedigree seems to make my dogs poo very dry, hard and firm. Plus he is having problems with his front leg joints which he didn't get on our former food
Q4. If it came up in conversation, would you recommend Pedigree® to other dog owners? If so, why? If not, why not?
If another dog owners dog would eat anything, then yes I might recommend. Otherwise I feel the product we used before this trial is better for my individual dog and his health.
Q5. What were your overall impressions of the Pedigree® Tracks app
I could not access the app on my android device, so gave up before we'd even started
Q6. If it came up in conversation, would you recommend Pedigree® Tracks to other dog owners? If so, why? If not, why not?
No. See q5 above.

Q1 yes it's a well known brand. I had only bought treats/dentastix before

Q2 I found it fine. Our dog did get very smelly wind and soft faeces even though we blended it very slowly across and the same happened after giving the first pouch of wet food. He loved the dentastix though.

Q3. No we'll go back to his old food. It suited him well. He's been gaining weight on Pedigree even though we're giving less than the recommended amounts, and his faeces are still softer and much smellier

Oops posted too soon..

We might continue with the odd dentastix or treat if we can do that without him having soft poos or getting fat!

Q4. I would say they should introduce it very slowly as our dog can usually eat anything without any ill effects. I wouldn't recommend the wet food as I found it really smelly.

Q5. User friendly. I don't use apps a lot

Q6. Only if asked for a recommendation for that type of thing which I think is unlikely!

Q1. Were you aware of Pedigree® dog food before taking part in this product test? If so, have you ever purchased it before?
I haven't purchased for this dog - many years ago bought tinned Pedigree Chum
Q2. What are your overall impressions of the Pedigree® Complete Feeding diet your dog tested? We’d love your thoughts on the complete diet as well as the individual products.
Far too large amounts so I have cut down or else the dog would be rotund. He is enjoying a mixture of wet and dry food at night. it seems to have improved his fur condition and a bonus is that he loves it.
Q3. In future, how likely are you to consider regularly feeding the full Pedigree® diet that your dog tested to your dog? If not the full diet, which particular products would you consider and why?
The dry and wet food I would definitely use plus the snacks when appropriate (rather than every day)
Q4. If it came up in conversation, would you recommend Pedigree® to other dog owners? If so, why? If not, why not?
Yes because it seems to be well received - however, a friend's dog will eat anything!
Q5. What were your overall impressions of the Pedigree® Tracks app?
Not used as I don't use apps.
Q6. If it came up in conversation, would you recommend Pedigree® Tracks to other dog owners? If so, why? If not, why not? See answer to Q5

Q1. Were you aware of Pedigree® dog food before taking part in this product test? If so, have you ever purchased it before?
A1. Yes I've always been aware of the brand but it's not one that I purchase often.
Q2. What are your overall impressions of the Pedigree® Complete Feeding diet your dog tested? We’d love your thoughts on the complete diet as well as the individual products.
A2. Maisie loves all the products. She usually saves some of her biscuits to snack on but she is now finishing a full bowl of food.
Q3. In future, how likely are you to consider regularly feeding the full Pedigree® diet that your dog tested to your dog? If not the full diet, which particular products would you consider and why?
A3. I would now feel more inclined to purchase the biscuits and meat after seeing how much Maisie enjoys them.
Q4. If it came up in conversation, would you recommend Pedigree® to other dog owners? If so, why? If not, why not?
A4. Yes I would recommend the products.
Q5. What were your overall impressions of the Pedigree® Tracks app?
A5. I haven't used the app much but it is handy to see exactly how much food your dog should be having.
Q6. If it came up in conversation, would you recommend Pedigree® Tracks to other dog owners? If so, why? If not, why not?
A6. Yes I probably would for people who are unsure how much to be feeding their dog.

Chloe is a 5 year old medium-sized collie-cross. We tested Pedigree pouches, adult chicken dry food, dentastix and tasty bites.

Q1. Were you aware of Pedigree® dog food before taking part in this product test? If so, have you ever purchased it before? Yes, we buy tins of Pedigree loaf for the dogs alongside other foods
Q2. What are your overall impressions of the Pedigree® Complete Feeding diet your dog tested? We’d love your thoughts on the complete diet as well as the individual products. The wet food pouches are very convenient and were a huge hit with Chloe- she wags her little tail off when she hears the rustle of the pouches. The dry food looked good and she ate it all so it must have tasted good too. The tasty bites were great and the dentastix went down well but didn't last as long as I thought they would.
Q3. In future, how likely are you to consider regularly feeding the full Pedigree® diet that your dog tested to your dog? If not the full diet, which particular products would you consider and why? Very likely, Chloe likes the food and seems lively and happy. The pouches are expensive but would make a nice change when she gets fed up of her usual wet food. The dentastix were eaten very quickly so I think I would rather give her the smaller sized treats or a treat that lasts a bit longer if giving her one that size.
Q4. If it came up in conversation, would you recommend Pedigree® to other dog owners? If so, why? If not, why not? Yes, I think the food is good quality and Chloe is healthy eating it.
Q5. What were your overall impressions of the Pedigree® Tracks app? It was surprising to see that I only needed to feed 1 wet pouch a day, but it was good to know what I should be feeding her as I have only ever fed her what I think she should have. The exercise bit of the app looks fun but I wouldn't use it as I don't really use my smartphone when I walk her
Q6. If it came up in conversation, would you recommend Pedigree® Tracks to other dog owners? If so, why? If not, why not? For feeding guidelines, yes. I don't think many of my friends would be too interested in the exercise bit.

Thank you for the test products, Chloe and I are very grateful.

Q1. Were you aware of Pedigree® dog food before taking part in this product test? If so, have you ever purchased it before?
yes i was aware of it but had never used it before
Q2. What are your overall impressions of the Pedigree® Complete Feeding diet your dog tested? We’d love your thoughts on the complete diet as well as the individual products.
my thoughts are its great! My pug puppy seems to be enjoying it too, i was a bit worried that he wouldnt eat it as he'd been eating royal canin food before we trialled pedigree, but i needn't have worried
Q3. In future, how likely are you to consider regularly feeding the full Pedigree® diet that your dog tested to your dog? If not the full diet, which particular products would you consider and why?
i think id use it all, as it does seem cheaper than royal canin and is just as good
Q4. If it came up in conversation, would you recommend Pedigree® to other dog owners? If so, why? If not, why not?
i would yes, because its great value for money
Q5. What were your overall impressions of the Pedigree® Tracks app?
i havent had time to use the app yet
Q6. If it came up in conversation, would you recommend Pedigree® Tracks to other dog owners? If so, why? If not, why not?

P.S thankyou so much for this amazing product trial, its been brilliant xx

Q1. Yes I was aware of Pedigree and I have bought some of the products before.

Q2. We are mix feeding atm with both Pedigree and James Wellbeloved, our pup loves the Pedigree pouches, she's not a fan of crunchy foods so only a spoonful of kibble mixed in during meals.

Q3. Definitely the wet pouches, maybe the kibble, she loves the puppy Dentatubo so yes I would buy them again.

Q4. I'm not sure as every dogs feeding is different.

Q5. Yes, only the feeding guidelines though.
Q6. Yes, it's really easy to use.

Thank you so much for selecting us MN & Pedigree!

Q1. Were you aware of Pedigree® dog food before taking part in this product test? If so, have you ever purchased it before?

Yes, I had seen it in local supermarkets but never purchased it

Q2. What are your overall impressions of the Pedigree® Complete Feeding diet your dog tested? We’d love your thoughts on the complete diet as well as the individual products.

My puppy loved the wet food pouches but not the amount advised on feeding guide (we found a happy medium between the guide and what he would eat and I don't like leaving wet food in bowl for any amount of time especially In the heat) dental sticks were (and still have lots!) well chewed (and buried and dug up and reburied) we struggled with the dry food (he is mixed fed) he really wasn't interested and avoided the dry part of his bowl, we ended up mixing his original kibble into dry food and still avoided so we have had to revert back to his original dry food but still using pedigree wet food

Q3. In future, how likely are you to consider regularly feeding the full Pedigree® diet that your dog tested to your dog? If not the full diet, which particular products would you consider and why?

I wo t use the dry food as h is a working dog and specifically had working dry food and as he has never had a great tummy the kibble didn't agree with him and made him loose and more poo toilet however we will continue to buy the wet food pouches and mix these with his normal kibble.
I would use the dentastix, I thought they were great and he loved them and helped keep his teeth clean

Q4. If it came up in conversation, would you recommend Pedigree® to other dog owners? If so, why? If not, why not?

I would recommend especially the dental sticks and wet food I may suggest they try the kibble but it may not be of a high enough meat quality for most owners I know

Q5. What were your overall impressions of the Pedigree® Tracks app?

The personalised tracks app was fun and my daughters enjoyed looking at it and we were amazed to see how much exercise he makes us all get!

Q6. If it came up in conversation, would you recommend Pedigree® Tracks to other dog owners? If so, why? If not, why not?

Yes was helpful to ensure he is getting correct exercise/food ratio and of a healthy weight and right structure for his age

Sorry missed the other bit of info boris is a 8 month old cocker spaniel he is medium size dog weighs 14kg we tested wet food, kibble and dental sticks

Dd's and boz

Q1. Were you aware of Pedigree® dog food before taking part in this product test? If so, have you ever purchased it before?
Yes I was aware and have purchased Dentastix and Gravy Bones in the past.
Q2. What are your overall impressions of the Pedigree® Complete Feeding diet your dog tested? We’d love your thoughts on the complete diet as well as the individual products.
Overall the diet has been fine though a little more work to prepare. I preferred the jelly pouches to the gravy ones as they were less messy. The treats were too small for my beagle and lab x pointer.
Q3. In future, how likely are you to consider regularly feeding the full Pedigree® diet that your dog tested to your dog? If not the full diet, which particular products would you consider and why? I prefer to use just dry food so might consider continued use of it.
Q4. If it came up in conversation, would you recommend Pedigree® to other dog owners? If so, why? If not, why not? Yes. Its a nice productive and dogs seem to enjoy it.
Q5. What were your overall impressions of the Pedigree® Tracks app? Useful for calculating portion size.
Q6. If it came up in conversation, would you recommend Pedigree® Tracks to other dog owners? If so, why? If not, why not? Yes, see above.

Missed info sorry : I was sent the food to try with my 6 year old Labrador x German wire haired pointer but there was loads so my 7 year old beagle is also taking part. We are trialling kibble, pouches, dentastix and treats.

I have a 8 month old Cockapoo puppy named Emi and she is testing the complete wet and dry puppy food and the denta tubes.

Q1. Were you aware of Pedigree® dog food before taking part in this product test? If so, have you ever purchased it before?

Yes I was aware of Pedigree but had not purchased before.

Q2. What are your overall impressions of the Pedigree® Complete Feeding diet your dog tested? We’d love your thoughts on the complete diet as well as the individual products.

We started Emi off with the dry food only as that is what she was used to and mixed it with her regular food. We did notice she had a slightly upset tummy for a few weeks but that seems to have settled now. She was very keen on both the dry and wet food at first but now will often leave the dry food even if wet is not offered. I think after the test I will go back to our old brand with the higher meat content as that was never left uneaten. I was surprised by how low the meat content and how high the 'filler' content is in this food.
The denta tubes are a big hit and I like the idea that something she enjoys is looking after her teeth.

Q3. In future, how likely are you to consider regularly feeding the full Pedigree® diet that your dog tested to your dog? If not the full diet, which particular products would you consider and why?

As I said above I do not think we will continue with the complete wet or dry food but will certainly buy the denta tubes regularly.

Q4. If it came up in conversation, would you recommend Pedigree® to other dog owners? If so, why? If not, why not?

I would recommend that they give it a try as I think certain foods suit some dogs better than others. I will happily recommend the denta tubes and also denta sticks for older dogs.

Q5. What were your overall impressions of the Pedigree® Tracks app?

I was unaware of the app, must have missed it somehow. I will look into it now and update later.

Q6. If it came up in conversation, would you recommend Pedigree® Tracks to other dog owners? If so, why? If not, why not?

Firstly, thanks for letting us try out these products, it was a nice treat for Archie receiving two large boxes of food in the post!

Q1. Were you aware of Pedigree® dog food before taking part in this product test? If so, have you ever purchased it before?
Yes I was aware of Pedigree and had purchased it before. I buy Dentastix regularly as both dogs were having problems with their teeth and I have found that Dentastix helps a lot and they enjoy them. I have bought Pedigree biscuits occasionally but usually find them too expensive.

Q2. What are your overall impressions of the Pedigree® Complete Feeding diet your dog tested? We’d love your thoughts on the complete diet as well as the individual products.
Usually, Archie gets mainly dry food with the occasional sachet of wet food. He prefers wet food and this was the case here too. He would eat the meat chunks out of the sachet before they reached his bowl! He also enjoyed the dry food and finished his bowl each time. I followed the advice given by the Pedigree app and fed him four sachets a day supplemented by the dry food. He also received a Dentastix each day and had some treats if we were on a walk or some other activity. I found that he was satisfied with this diet although being a big dog, he didn't enjoy the treats as much as the other food as they were too small.

Q3. In future, how likely are you to consider regularly feeding the full Pedigree® diet that your dog tested to your dog? If not the full diet, which particular products would you consider and why?
I think feeding him the full diet would end up being very expensive which is a shame because he has a real appetite for most of the products he was sent. I have priced them in our local supermarket because I would have liked to have continue it but I realised I could not afford it. I will continue giving him the Dentastix that he was getting regularly before this trial and I will consider buying him the sachets of wet food, although I wouldn't give him four a day, they would be more of a treat.

Q4. If it came up in conversation, would you recommend Pedigree® to other dog owners? If so, why? If not, why not?
I would definitely recommend Pedigree, especially now that I have tried products I hadn't tried before. I think it is a high quality brand that dogs enjoy. I don't think a dog owner would need a recommendation of Pedigree though as it is a universally well-known brand.

Q5. What were your overall impressions of the Pedigree® Tracks app?
I found the app easy to use and I liked that I could get a recommended portion size for my dog, as it is sometimes difficult to know how much to feed him. He is a big dog with a big appetite and I have been worried in the past about overfeeding him so this gave me a clearer idea of how much he should be getting.

Q6. If it came up in conversation, would you recommend Pedigree® Tracks to other dog owners? If so, why? If not, why not?
Yes I would as I found it useful myself.

Sorry for the late reply on this thread and thanks again.

Q1. Were you aware of Pedigree® dog food before taking part in this product test? If so, have you ever purchased it before?
Yes aware of pedigree as a brand and bought treats for my dog before.

Q2. What are your overall impressions of the Pedigree® Complete Feeding diet your dog tested? We’d love your thoughts on the complete diet as well as the individual products.
I'm not impressed compared to my dogs usual food it's full of additives and colours, low meat content and high cereals.

I love the size of the kibble in the dry food. It will hopefully keep my dogs teeth clean and it slows her down when she is eating. I am not a fan of the soft food. It tends to give my dog a smelly tummy. The treats are great. My dog loves them and by giving her a dental stix I know I am hopefully giving her something good as well as a treat.
