Reviews of Almo Nature food for dogs
Sasha: It may not be holistic, but it is super premium nutrition, so our dog feels very good. We use all series: croquettes, canned food and sometimes we give cookies. But we try to balance the diet so that the pet does not overeat, but remains active and develops normally.
Olya: So far we have only used canned food, but we bought different flavors. The dog really likes it and eats them with pleasure. Before purchasing, we read reviews from veterinarians and buyers, and they were all positive. The price is fine, although the composition could be completely grain-free. Now most brands are trying to replace porridge with vegetables.
Alya: We only use Almo Nature dry food, because the dog is prone to obesity, the only thing we give occasionally as a reward is cookies. Tony cannot live without sweets, but they are known to be prohibited. But dog biscuits from Almo Nature are healthy and solve this situation.
