Laughing Dog Food! - Review.

It's not very often I come across a new brand of pet products, as a life long pet owner and current dog devotee, I consider myself pretty up to date with the best brands out there. However, I received an email a few weeks ago now, about a wonderful farm run family company, called Laughing Dog. After checking out their website, (which I liked - very bright and easy to navigate), I found them to be right up my street, my girls nutrition is so important to me and as anyone who knows me will already be aware, I'm always researching and trying to keep my girls at their peak, with the best of food, toys etc. So we agreed to a sample on the basis of us doing a review.

Laughing Dog were extremely kind and sent us both the adult Chicken flavour and the adult Lamb flavour kibbles from their range. They do a total of 7 different products; 2 adult kibbles, 1 senior kibble and 1 puppy kibble - all of which are complete meal foods. Laughing Dog also do 2 mixer meals - 1 adult, 1 puppy and some 'biscuit cakes' treats which are suitable for all ages.

When we took a look at their site the first thing I noticed is the packaging, I've said it before and I'm sure I'll say it again, the packaging isn't everything but it sure helps make a good first impression!

As far as the kibble itself, all of their products are 100% natural, hypo-allergenic and are made with top quality ingredients. They don't use any dairy, soy or wheat gluten in their kibbles and there's also no nasty additives or added preservatives. The barley and oats they use in their kibble is home grown on their farm!

One thing I found fascinating about their kibble is that the pieces are irregular in shape and size, making them a little tougher to eat, which slows your dog down and in turn promotes better digestive health! In the pictures (below) you can see the 'wobbly' shape of the Laughing Dog kibble - seen in a promo picture and then again, close up, in my hand...

Our 5 extremely qualified taste testers (enter Buffy, Rafferty, Monroe, Lily and Lola) really seemed to enjoy Laughing Dog, so it's 2 happy paws up from each of them! We let them try it over a few weeks and they didn't seem to get bored with it, which is always a positive. The girls were happy to eat the kibble out my hand, scattered on the floor, from a bowl etc but they were also equally happy to 'work' for it, when I hid it in their Aikiou bowl or their Dogit toy! I took that to be a good sign, they aren't too easily impressed usually, so with the quality of ingredients and their enthusiasm towards it, I'm more than happy with Laughing Dog's kibble and will continue to shop with them. :)

Price wise Laughing Dog is very reasonably and competitively priced, it's comparable to other high end dog foods and is readily available to order online via their website, with next day delivery. Laughing Dog is also making its way to a pet shop near you!

If you choose to try Laughing Dog we hope you enjoy it as much as we did and we'd love to see some pictures of your dog enjoying their Laughing Dog! You can tweet your pictures to us at @RioChanelHilton or email them to us at riochanelhilton@hotmail.com :) You can also contact Laughing Dog directly via their website or their twitter @ReefLaughingDog
