In reply to Nunya.

Hi Nunya, I can assure you I don’t have shares in any pet food company, and the reviews are unbiased.

From understanding pet food formulations, and from dealing with many pet owners over the past almost two decades, I can confidently say I wouldn’t feed my own dog a dry processed kibble made mostly of cereal grains like wheat.

One year on a food isn’t very long, but I’m glad they appear to be healthy. What I would advise – which will hopefully be a productive suggestion – is to feed your Rottweilers some fresh meats, organs, eggs, sardines, or appropriate raw meaty bones as part of their diet (possibly around 20%). You may dispute this review, but I’m sure you can’t dispute how real foods your dogs would instinctively eat are bad advice?

In reply to Pet Food Judge (America). 3 rottweilers have been on this food for 1 year so far and they are the healthiest they have ever been..never had them at the vets other than the usual check ups etc. This article screams 'I have shares in an expensive dog food company and I'm pissed people are buying this good dog food and not our nasty expensive stuff'

In reply to Michael Thomas. Fed this to my dog and he got superpowers and can now talk to me telepathically and is now the sole bread winner, I don't even need to work anymore. Would never use another brand of food this is a super food for a super dog only 12 months and he now has super strength!!! This is not for weak or spoilt lap mutts, but real working dogs!

Well mate you talk as if your a legend and got shares in another brand. I think the opposite to you. In my world its all about a balanced diet and the Drover dry food is fine by me and my 10 year old Lab. So per day I feed her 1/2 cup drover dry for breky, Kangaroo back bone for lunch and 1/2 cup of Drover dry food and a 1 ” slice of beef/ veggie sausage for dinner. She is a good looking healthy girl that everyone thinks is about 3 years old and gets rave reviews from the Vet. Interesting that her favourite food is the dry food. If you just feed a dog any of the dry foods only, well maybe you shouldn’t have a dog.

I bought this about 3 weeks ago and it’s going rancid in the food barrel I keep it in,so before reading all these informative comments it will be relegated to the rubbish.

Well I can say I will never feed this junk to any of my dogs again, my dog was healthy then I thought I’d get this since it was cheap and sold at petbarn so must be safe. Then my dog started getting fat and bloated then a year later died from tumours. Not saying it’s from the dry food but it’s funny how he started having heath problems on this food.

In reply to Michael Thomas. Hi Michael, thank you for the feedback. Personally I don't consider a dog food product with the prime ingredient of cereals and cereal by-products a good diet for an animal I class as a facultative carnivore.

David you’ve written this negative review about drovers in anonymity and yet your site seeks name and email address for those who reply. The problem in not declaring identity is it naturally leads to, at the very least, the perception of a conflict of interest. Professional critics and reviewers declare their identity, your hiding under the desk, your credibility is under that desk with you.

Well if all of the other brands weren’t so bloody dear maybe i would buy them. I have no choice but to buy the cheap nasty dry food. Surprise people my dogs will eat this brand more than the expensive brands. Another reason to buy cheap brands no wastage.

I work at Petbarn and I can assure you I would never recommend this. The only people who buy this are the ones who don’t care what their dog eats as long as it’s cheap as chips. It’s a shame because we sell cheap food like Leaps and Bounds that is way better
