Hi how long do you get on short date bags?

Hi can I just clarify the total carbs in this food???? Im looking to feed my dogs the lowest carb nearest to raw complete food. The pie wheel shows just 14.8 % but when i use your compare feature it shows 40g of carbs as fed I dont understand the translation ????
Team AADF Amanda Turner 2 years ago
Hi Amanda. That's a great question! The pie charts indicate roughly how much of each category of ingredients is present in the food. In this context, 'carbs' refers to carbohydrate rich ingredients like grains, potatoes, lentils and so on. The 37% figure, on the other hand, is the total percentage of carbohydrates in the food - the nutrient rather than the category of ingredients. Since many other forms of ingredients in addition to those mentioned above contain carbohydrates, this figure is often higher than the carb percentage on the pie chart. I hope this makes sense. It's unfortunate that the terms for both the nutrient and the class of foods are identical as it leads to a lot of confusion. I'll see what I can do to make things clearer

Been looking for a really good dry dog food for quite a while now and this seems to be it. Have switched to Aatu for the pass few months and so far so good. Adopted my dog almost a year ago, and she's been increasingly picky. I've gone through more then 8 different brands in as many months, and there are times when she doesn't even want to touch her food, unless I cover them with cheese powder, then she would just "entertain" me in eating a little bit or just lick the chesse powder off and leave the kibbles untouched. Since switching to Aatu, I've not had problems with her eating. She seems to like it a whole lot better then the other brands. She still wants cheese powder on top though. Sign!
I especially like its high protein content, great for my baby's muscle development. She's now around one and half years old and weights around 20-21Kg, absolutely gorgeous. I give her plenty of exercise so weight isn't too much of a problem, her muscle tone and body shape is just perfect. Wish I have her muscle to fat ratio :P.
Anyway, I would recommand this product. Quality stuff!

I'm struggling to decide on a food for a working cocker and a border collie 6 and 10 years old. Both hard to keep weight on, spaniel especially. The more that goes in the more that comes out. Ive fed nutriment raw which is great but sadly not convenient. Can anyone recommend something with similar qualities but dry

Hi I have two Cavachon puppies one is 4 1\2 months the other 51\2 months. They were on royal canin but I wanted to get them on to a better quality food so weened them off with AATU duck. They were fine during the weening process but as soon as they were on it full time it went straight through them and ass I thought they were OK I stupidly ordered a huge bag of it which is now sitting redundant in the garage.
Should I have given them this food? It doesn't say its for puppies but others say they feed it to theirs.
I now have them on Arden Grange which has sorted their tummies out but I'm still not sure its quality enough?

I have a 5 year old male cavalier king charles. He's quite fussy with food to the point I have been feeding him homemade food for the past 6 months. I decided to switch to dry food for convenience and after ready many reviews I decided this was the food I liked the sound of. I gradually introduced the dry food. However my little pooch would not touch it. I stayed strong with the "dog hungry, dog eat principle" after day 3 he gave up and ate it. That was the not then end of the problem. A week on with just a tiny bit of food introduced, it had played absolute havoc with his stomach. The food is already slightly high in price (this is not m primary issue as I am a believer in paying quality ) bit combined with a new rug from empty stomach contents and a hefty vet bill to sort his stomach, I have come to the conclusion this is not the best food for him. Disappointed after reading all the great reviews, but after over a week of poorly tummy, and again I reiterate the HEFTY vet bill. I've made an executive/decision stewed by concern to refrain from purchasing this for Rolo. :(
