It’s always a step up to anything made by the trash collecting and making into pet food companies :p

But I bet for the price you can very easily buy a much higher meat food, but people need that maths to be done for them, I am trying though on Facebook to get people off of Royal and Hills and stuff and onto stuff like Canidae and Blackhawk, similar priced items.

Hi guys, I’ve updated the review to the Grain Free formula seeing as the original recipes are no longer available. The protein is 5% higher, and the fat an extra 1%, so it’s an improvement…. but it’s mostly plant proteins. UTS hasn’t done very well in America as it’s not widely sold like Canidae, and you’re right that Canidae seems to be on sale often.

No it wouldn’t be Susan remember what you told me one time that we have the old formula? and that you didn’t know when we were getting the new ones? I’d reckon that’s why it’s gone that and the reviews for the pork were very poor overseas and I think I remember reading a few here that had the very same reasons.

The right pork ain’t bad for dogs sadly this one seemed to be the wrong type of pork, like Frontier that’s the right type of pork, no problems with that for anyone so far.

I saw your post on the Canidae America page and they replied saying we’ll be getting the new formulas soon ;o)

I started feeding Canidae Platinum cause I needed a lower fat lower protein
kibble again, but I don’t like all the grains & ingredients in the Canidae Platinum, I don’t mind a few grains like brown rice & oats, but Canidae Platinum has too many ingredients in their low fat Platinum, so I compared the ingredients in Under The Sun Original Adult kibble, the ingredients were limited there’s NO barley, no white rice, no tomato pomace, no psyllium seed husks, no probiotics, no papaya & no pineapple…
but Under The Sun Original does have Milo (sorghum) but the Milo doesn’t seem to bother Patches skin or stomach like the barley does, when he was eating the Canidae Platinum.

Patch loves Under The Sun kibble probably cause it’s Pork, he gets Pork & sweet potato for dinner but Under The Sun Original Adult kibble looks like a cheaply made kibble, compared to the Canidae Platinum kibble & it’s too powdery &
crumby the kibble does digest easy & it breaks up easy but leaves crumbs & powder all down the bottom of container or kibble bag…

If you click on link http://www.underthesunpetfood.com/dog-food/
“Under the Sun” have changed their formulas, with new packaging, there’s no pork & no chicken fat, they are using canola oil instead…
This is what we are getting in America their old Under The Sun formulas http://www.underthesun.com.au/under-the-sun-dog-food.php

I asked Canidae on the American Canidae Face Book page, “Will we be getting Under The Suns new formulas?” Canidae removed my post?? Who ever is bringing in Canidae have brought in Under The Sun kibbles to back themselves up when they run out of their Canidae formulas cause everyone has to get another brand when their Canidae kibble runs out & a lot of people changed over the another brand & have gotten sick of Canidae running out, the lady at a Pet Shop was telling me they are sick of Canidae when their delivery finally comes Canidae gives them 1/2 of what they ordered & they have lost customers, so they are stocking Taste Of The Wild & stocking Meals For Mutts, it gets delivered within 2-3 working days & the customers are happy….
