Thanks to Acana, all our dogs have beautiful shiny, soft and healthy coats which is especially important for our Golden Retrievers with such long fur - we get compliments all the time on their appearance. But I think most importantly, they love the food, look forward to meal times and are happy healthy dogs!

Straight away I put him on to Acana Pacifica and in less than 3 months he was a changed dog.

He is now a healthy weight; he gets compliments on how nice and soft his fur is and most importantly he is no longer red and itching! I even use his biscuits as training treats because he loves them so much!! It is amazing to see how much of a difference good nutrition can make]]> https://www.natureski.co.nz/media/website_posts/426/Would-You-Rather-Image-Frames-instagram1080-(2).jpeg page https://www.natureski.co.nz/testimonials/for-dogs/ 2021-12-20 20:07:46 400 2 https://www.natureski.co.nz/media/website_posts/400/Handsome-Boy-rusty.jpg page https://www.natureski.co.nz/testimonials/ 2021-07-21 01:38:00 295 3 https://www.natureski.co.nz/media/website_posts/295/Kelleys-dog-image-.jpg page https://www.natureski.co.nz/testimonials/for-dogs/ 2020-02-18 00:20:00 17 2 https://www.natureski.co.nz/media/website_posts/17/2015-04-01.jpg page https://www.natureski.co.nz/testimonials/for-dogs/ 2020-01-31 02:37:00 77 3

I recently adopted a huntaway mix from a rescue who had a rough start. When I got him home he was pretty thin his coat was a bit flaky and dull and he would only eat his food when it was mixed with wet food and hot water. As soon as I could I began the switch to Acana puppy and junior and we have hit a major turning point in just a few weeks! His sensitive tummy has settled right down and he nearly back flips for his dinner. During the time we were attending puppy preschool and by week 3 everyone was commenting on how amazing he was looking in particular his coat! I had put the skin issues down to losing his puppy fluff but I was wrong and I still cannot believe how shiny and glossy his black coat is! And I'm over the moon that I can no longer see his hip bones sticking up while he plays and instead nice muscle and happy fit puppy! I can't wait to see how he matures with such great nutrition and know he will be in perfect condition to start his own career in sports when the time comes.
Sorry for such a long winded email I just wanted to let you know how much I appreciate being able to feed such amazing food to my crew and just what amazing results I have experienced with it from not just one but now 2 dogs with completely different needs! Thank you so so much you have definitely got yourself a lifelong supporter and advocate and to be honest I think the beautiful dogs let the food speak for itself! "
Thanks again 😊]]> https://www.natureski.co.nz/media/website_posts/34/Tashana-Williscroft.jpg page https://www.natureski.co.nz/testimonials/for-dogs/ 2019-06-07 00:13:00 41 2 https://www.natureski.co.nz/media/website_posts/41/Ruby-2015-(2).jpg page https://www.natureski.co.nz/testimonials/for-dogs/ 2019-06-06 03:15:00 36 2 https://www.natureski.co.nz/media/website_posts/36/Ruby-@-beach-from-Aimee-Upson-3.jpg page https://www.natureski.co.nz/testimonials/for-dogs/ 2019-06-06 02:16:00 33 2 By October we both noticed a massive difference in her coat, it stopped falling out, her colouring became darker and started to thicken. And now it’s been 6 months feeding her Acana and her coat is looking amazing, it’s thick, rich in colour, super soft and luscious. In parallel with feeding Acana I have also been professionally grooming her every 3/4 weeks to ensure her coat is looked after to the fullest.

Hope you enjoyed my story so far, this year will be the year to tell if her coat falls out again but so far it’s looking good and she’s (touch wood) hasn’t had a relapse for some months now.]]> https://www.natureski.co.nz/media/website_posts/33/Kylie-Purgal-.jpg page https://www.natureski.co.nz/testimonials/for-dogs/ 2019-06-05 23:47:00 28 2 The change became more apparent after one of my girls Kasan whelped her last litter of puppies, the coats on the puppies are outstanding, the bitch held her weight and had more milk production than normal.  There was also a noticeable difference in the birth weights of the new born puppies, and the bitch did not loose her appetite after whelping.
I would highly recommend this product to other breeders as I have not found anything else that compares.]]> https://www.natureski.co.nz/media/website_posts/28/Kasan2.jpg page https://www.natureski.co.nz/testimonials/for-dogs/ 2019-06-05 04:31:00 27 2 https://www.natureski.co.nz/media/website_posts/27/Billy2.JPG page https://www.natureski.co.nz/testimonials/for-dogs/ 2019-06-05 04:28:00 26 2 https://www.natureski.co.nz/media/website_posts/26/charlie2.jpg page https://www.natureski.co.nz/testimonials/for-dogs/ 2019-06-05 04:24:00 25 2 ]]> https://www.natureski.co.nz/media/website_posts/25/Floyd-and-Plum2.JPG page https://www.natureski.co.nz/testimonials/for-dogs/ 2019-06-05 04:15:00 24 2 https://www.natureski.co.nz/media/website_posts/24/emmashaw-6.jpg page https://www.natureski.co.nz/testimonials/for-dogs/ 2019-06-05 04:10:00 23 2 https://www.natureski.co.nz/media/website_posts/23/simon-and-jaws.jpg page https://www.natureski.co.nz/testimonials/for-dogs/ 2019-06-05 04:04:00 22 2 https://www.natureski.co.nz/media/website_posts/22/Kimmies-dobermann.jpg page https://www.natureski.co.nz/testimonials/for-dogs/ 2019-06-05 04:01:00 21 2
....Having studied all the dog foods available, it was an easy choice to decide to feed my Scottish Deerhounds ORIJEN dog food.  The quality and consistency of this dog food is second to none.  I also like the fact that the food sourced is sustainably farmed and is fresh and never frozen before manufacture.  My hounds love it and it means that I know they will perform to their best in the show ring and in the field.  Vanessa and the team at Orijen have great customer service, and I am always more than happy to recommend ORIJEN as the best cat and dog food out there.]]> https://www.natureski.co.nz/media/website_posts/21/Lochbrowan-running-230.jpg page https://www.natureski.co.nz/testimonials/for-dogs/ 2019-06-05 03:56:00 20 2
After long investigations on the net we emailed Orijen and Vanessa sent out a sample pack for us to try (a decent size too) and answered all my questions.  While Dex does tend to eat anything and isn't fussy (there must be some Lab in there also!) we knew she enjoyed the Orijen as she ate that first when we mixed it with a cheaper brand.  She has had no problem with the transition onto Orijen from her other food and we have just purchased our first pack.  

While it is more expensive than the supermarket variety of kibble we at least know we are feeding her a better quality food and don't have to feed her as much.  Time will tell but we are happy so far with her reaction to it and and Orijen's prompt, efficient service.]]> https://www.natureski.co.nz/media/website_posts/20/Dexie.jpg page https://www.natureski.co.nz/testimonials/for-dogs/ 2019-06-05 03:51:00 19 2
Held at the South Auckland Trial Grounds, Tuakau, the event involved 60 dogs and their handlers taking part in a series of simulated shooting situations. Dash (real name Skinevalley Blackthorn) took part in the retriever events and was unanimously judged the top retriever at the event.
Dash is kept fully fit and healthy thanks to Acana Cob Chicken food. Moved to Acana and away from cereal based food and the dog have gone from strength to strength. With visits to the vets only down to routine visits plus less waste to pick up it’s certainly been a bonus. However the main reason to moving to Acana is the condition of the dog he is not only fitter but has good stamina being able to concentrate and work for long periods in the field. 
Cost is always in our mind but, purchasing the 17kg bag last 5 weeks and feeding two dogs twice a day its averages out at around $2.15 a day per dog, and for the performance I receive from my dogs I have no doubt its value for money. 


Will we be changing from Acana any time soon? NOW Would I recommend Acana? Yes]]> https://www.natureski.co.nz/media/website_posts/19/dash-buddle-2.jpg-17_01.jpg page https://www.natureski.co.nz/testimonials/for-dogs/ 2019-06-05 03:47:00 16 2 https://www.natureski.co.nz/media/website_posts/16/Layyla-after.JPG page https://www.natureski.co.nz/testimonials/for-dogs/ 2019-06-05 03:30:00 15 2 When we first got our rescue Dogue she was very thin...

...our existing boy was on Orijen and seemed happy on it and he is a fussy old fella at 10 years. Hazel has slowly put on weight and like Yogi (our old fella) enjoys her meals and has a good shiny coat, fresh breath and has maintained and improved condition since we have had her. Hazel enjoys her food especially the Orijen and is picky when we are unable to obtain it locally.  ]]> https://www.natureski.co.nz/media/website_posts/15/Hazel-april-2012-2.jpg page https://www.natureski.co.nz/testimonials/for-dogs/ 2019-06-05 03:27:00
