Eukanuba for dogs
Eukanuba food, well-known and once popular, used to be really aimed at providing complete nutrition, but since P&G first became the owners of the company, and then they were bought by the Mars company, the food has become more commercial and this has greatly affected the quality.
Today, Eukanuba brand feeds represent a wide range of feeds of average quality. The only thing that remains is the recipe of some specials, proven over the years. feed The food does a good job of removing tartar, there have been no studies on which is better at fighting plaque - mechanical cleaning or added chemicals have not been carried out, so manufacturers use both methods - a special form of granules that clean the teeth and a chemical substance sodium hexametaphosphate, which prevents plaque from hardening on the teeth . Foods for dogs with allergies usually contain only one type of animal protein, which reduces allergies to a minimum, but, unfortunately, there is not enough animal protein in the food. But the division of food by breed, it seems to me, is nothing more than an advertising ploy; food for a Boxer and Labrador is absolutely identical in composition, so that it is enough to simply take food for a dog, focusing on its size and age.
We were saved by the eucanouba Dermatosis. The dog is a Chinese Crested breed, and they are all prone to allergies, so we can’t find the appropriate food. Sometimes there is irritation, sometimes redness, and then recently there are wen all over the body. Eukanuba fell into my hands at the right time; it doesn’t look much different in appearance, only the smell is sharp and fishy. But the dog reacted positively to the smell. I’ve been feeding the dog for three weeks now, almost all the irritation has gone away, and right before my eyes the appearance is changing. But there is one huge BUT, you cannot eat this food for a long time, since it belongs to the medicinal line, only during the treatment period. So I’m still racking my brain on what to feed next. Most likely I will again look for something from eukanuba.
I would like to share a review about the eucanuba, I fed it to my Yorkie. We adopted a dog, and then it turned out that she had an overly sensitive gastrointestinal system and was allergic to chicken in addition - her eyes were itchy and watery. We tried everything possible, focusing on expensive food. Eukanuba was the one with lamb for small and medium breeds. Our Yorick ate this food for a year and a half, everything got better, the allergies went away, the dog was healthy, but at one point gastritis worsened, so we had to switch to veterinarian. ruler, medicinal Eukanuba. But her dog refused to eat it, apparently it didn’t taste the same. I even lost half a kilo. And with a total weight of only about three kilos, it was a disaster. We switched to natural food and treated digestion. It took us six months. But our digestive problems were in no way connected with the food; I thought that the Yorkie ate something at the dacha or on a walk. When the problems were resolved, they again decided to return to Eukanuba with the lamb, but the recurrence of gastritis made it clear that the dog’s intestinal obstruction was precisely because of the food. That's what the vet told us.
My puppy is a mongrel, I picked it up from the street. But this does not mean that you need to feed him anything. I wanted the baby to come out. Therefore, I had special hopes for eukanuba for puppies of medium breeds, this is a weight category from 10 to 25 kilos, age from a month to 12. Buying at a high price, I understood that this was a super premium brand. Price: 3 kilos - 1500 rubles, 15 kilos - 6000 rubles. The older dog, who already lived with us before the baby was born, ate “our brand,” but when Eukanuba appeared, she also preferred the second one. In two weeks we run out of a large bag. If we compare it with the previous food, this one differs in the size of the granules, they are smaller and in aroma, the smell is more pleasant, and thanks to the zippered bag, the food does not erode, dry out or become soggy from moisture. Pure natural meat, of course, dogs eat better; no eucanouba can compare here, but nevertheless the composition is very nutritious. There are no chemicals. additives and synthetics. Both pets have normal digestion, their coat is also good, and there are no allergies. I'm thinking of trying other versions of this food, with different flavors.
For dogs of certain breeds
Despite the fact that dogs are, in principle, very similar, each breed requires special care. Thus, dog breeders note that Rottweilers are prone to obesity, and due to their large body weight, they experience serious stress on their joints. The German Shepherd is very active and requires a huge amount of energy. Shar Peis are prone to allergies and skin rashes. All this is taken into account by “Eukanuba” - dog food, the composition of which is selected individually to suit your pet’s needs. The company offers about 20 varieties of food, developed for each specific breed.

Eukanuba dog food - reviews
Review of Eukanuba dog food, writes Valeria from Moscow. As soon as we bought a small spaniel, we immediately encountered a problem - some kind of rash appeared on the skin. Next, a visit to the veterinarian and diagnosis: food allergy. The doctor recommended Eukanuba food, so we bought it. Although it is not cheap, we have been feeding it for many years now and there have been no more allergic reactions.
We buy in large packages of 15 kg, it costs more than five thousand rubles. The food contains everything necessary, so we do not give the dog any additional vitamins. In general, there are no complaints about Eukanuba, both we and our pet like everything. The only thing I can note is the specific smell of the food, but the dogs don’t seem to care about that
Elena from St. Petersburg writes a review about Eukanuba dog food. Good afternoon. When we adopted the puppy, the breeder recommended Arden Grange to us and said that this is what she feeds her pets. But after several days of feeding, it became clear that the food was causing digestive problems; the puppy had diarrhea. Perhaps this is due to the transition from mother's milk directly to food, but we decided to check and took another brand - Eukanuba.
After the transition, the problem of diarrhea disappeared, which means that the previous food was not absorbed for some reason. Well, oh well, this one is no worse in composition and there is not much difference in price, we thought. For two months everything was fine, but then the puppy became less and less willing to eat, and they were already thinking about changing the food again. Fortunately, we read it on the Internet and it turned out that it was just his teeth that were changing. Now we are feeding the option for adult dogs, everything is fine, so we recommend it.
Review of Eukanuba dog food, writes Alena. Hi all! We have a big Labrador who loves to eat well. Previously, we fed him Brit Care food for almost two years, but somehow I had to visit the veterinary clinic due to an allergy, and the veterinarians there advised me to try Eukanuba for Labradors. They also said that allergies often occur in this breed. The dog is healthy, the coat is excellent, there are no complaints. In general, I advise everyone to try Eukanuba brand food.

Customer Reviews
We took food for small breed dogs, the price was 1,700 rubles per 3.5 kg package, the promotion was a little cheaper. The food granules are small, just the right size for our dog. The dog apparently likes the taste and has never refused it.
At first they soaked the food, then they stopped, now he eats it dry, the main thing is that there is always water next to the food. The dog's stool is stable, like clockwork - morning and evening. I recommend the food.
This food is produced in Russia, in the same place where Royal Canin is produced. I used to buy Eukanuba dermatosis for my dog with a chicken allergy, but it was discontinued. Then we switched to a similar daily care sensitive skin, which, unfortunately, is rarely on sale.
And so I decided to order this one, with chicken, to try. The result was pleasing: no allergies, the dog eats with pleasure. We'll take it - it turns out cheaper and is always on sale!
I've heard about Eukanuba food for a long time, but I haven't bought it before. Recently, in a store, I noticed a beautiful Spitz in a bright package and thought that the food was specifically for this breed, so I took it for my dog to try. At home I read it carefully, the food turned out to be suitable for all miniature breeds.
The food crumbs are small, I would say ideal for Spitz dogs, this is a plus. The smell is pleasant and induces appetite. My lard didn’t particularly like the food and ate it without enthusiasm. But the main thing is not this, but the fact that after this food the “exit” began to stink terribly. As soon as the dog finishes the package, I will 100% not buy this food again.
