My 2 dogs LOVE BH TLC. We switched to this from the fusspot and they like it more than that. I have a hyper maltese x who gets on with any food but with this she is great (and has become a little bit muscly and hench!) and a frenchie with a delicate tummy who has tried james wellbeloved (gas!) and wainwrights (gas!). With this food their coats are lovely, stools firm and they wolf it down. This is the best kibble I have had for any of my dogs and I would wholly recommend it for sensitive dogs. Add a squirt of fish oil and some fresh veg and I have very happy dogs.

Big fan of Barking heads...the review was pretty well spot on I thought.

Antlers can cause serious health problems!! Best to avoid all together!!
Besides the already mentioned breaking of teeth, it can also cause perforation of the stomach/intestines due to splintering when chewed on!!!

Whippets weren't really interested in these - they prefer rawhide.

I fed my dogs Autarkey for some years but wanted to try a 'better quality' kibble. I could only afford to go 50/50 and introduced the green Barking Heads gradually. Within 4 months my PRT started having seizures, up to two a week. I switched him to home made raw (beef mince, brown rice & leafy greens) and very quickly the seizures reduced to two a month. I did that for a year and over Christmas switched both dogs to Nutriment. My PRT has now had one seizure in three months.No brainer for me now. Raw all the way.

too much protein is not advisable if your dog has a history of urinary problems' What do you mean with that by this food? Is this food too much protein?

I have three Collies..and they thrive on Barking Heads. Their coats are amazing...their health is superb. I wouldn't use anything else

Have you found this food to be ok with BC's being such a high driven breed? My BCx Auzzie Kelpie is very high driven and hyper and looking into a better quality food that will also hopefully help on those factors too. Thanks

Hi! My border collie has been on barking heads since we got him and we put him on puppy days he's been on tender loving care for a month now and has loads of energy as all border collie do, his coat is beaut and has a clean bill of health! I was thinking of changing his food to one with a higher rating on here but I don't see the point now

Our elderly jack russell has been on TLC since having constant tummy trouble, he is like a different dog now. We have even put our other 2 dogs onto the same food, and they all love it and we havnt had a bad tummy the whole time they have been on it!
Highly recomend! They also have a money back guantee so if your dog doesnt like it or you are not convinced you will get refunded.
