Why you SHOULD NOT FEED YOUR DOG BAKERS: E320 - has been found to be tumour -producing when fed to rats. In human studies it has been linked with urticaria, angioedema and asthma. E321 - BANNED for use in food in Japan, Romania, Sweden, and Australia. The US has BANNED it from being used in infant foods. So bad McDonalds have voluntarily eliminated it from their products. E310 - BANNED from children's foods in the US because it is thought to cause the blood disorder methemoglobinemia. E172 - BANNED in Germany. E132 - Can cause skin sensitivity, a rash similar to nettle rash, itching, nausea, high blood pressure and breathing problems. One of the colours that the Hyperactive Children's Support Group recommends be eliminated from the diet of children. PROHIBITED in Norway. E102 - TARTRAZINE -A trial on 76 children diagnosed as hyperactive, showed that tartrazine provoked abnormal behaviour patterns in 79% of them. E110 - Sunset Yellow (E110) has been found to damage kidneys and adrenals when fed to laboratory rats. It has also been found to be carcinogenic when fed to animals. E104 - One of the colours that the Hyperactive Children's Support Group recommends be eliminated from the diet of children.BANNED in Australia, Japan, Norway and the United States. E171 - BANNED in Germany. E153 -BANNED as a food additive in the United States of America. Suspected as a carcinogenic agent. And which food contains ALL of these ? ....... Bakers Complete!

I learned of this from my time in the Dogs Trust as a former work experience placement and volunteer. Feeding a puppy with bakers puppy food, is essentially the equivalent of feeding a toddler with a McDonald's happy meal every day, and the adult dog version of this food is just as bad. Not while I have breath in my body would I ever feed this utter junk to any puppy who I owned, nor would I recommend that any other puppy owner feed their puppy/puppies with it either. If any other dog or puppy owner ever asked me about it, my only recommendation about it would be to avoid it like the plague. If someone gave me a bag, a sack or a box of this stuff, I would take it from them, purely so that it wouldn't be fed to any puppy, and my only use for it would be tinder. It actually makes me want to punch people in the face when I'm shopping, and I see them buying this utter crap!

Hi Natasha, I have a puppy of 9 months old and trying to find a more natural food. He’s been eating Bakers since we got him and I certainly don’t want to be giving him as you say the equivalent of mcDs!! Their ingredients aren’t very clear at all… thanks

I bought it for my dog as he wouldn’t eat his usual tails dog food . He gobbled a dish of bakers in one go . He has never done that before and he is 18 months old . It’s a hard decision and I think I have to try a better brand that is tasty , although tails is suppose to be tasty ! Any suggestions please . TY.
