Both dogs are keen to eat this food, with Tank often preferring to have just a bowl of dry food, whereas Scud prefers half wet and half dry food. It satisfies their appetites well.

Great. Charlie is an old boy, so we comply with his feeding wishes. He has lilys kitchen and thoroughly enjoys it, but it's expensive, so I mix it with the Golden Years. He loves the flavours and if he's happy, we're happy.

A friend of mine I suggested I try barking heads dog food, my first thoughts were it’s expensive. My 7 year old golden retriever loves it, his coat shines he has lost weight even though he gets the same volume of food he had far more energy and he looks amazing. It is expensive but if you love your dog try it you won’t be disappointed.

Below are some recent questions we've received regarding Barking Heads Golden Years Dog Food, including answers from our team.
Pearl Robson
I have a 10 year old boxer that is now getting heavier whilst slowing up in his walks.
I want to be careful with his weight so what would be better for him - Golden Year’s or Fat Dog Slim?
Hi there,
It will depend on how old the dog is and also how much weight the dog is putting on currently.
If the dog has just started putting on weight we would recommend going on the Golden Years and keeping a close eye on the feeding guide for the weight the dog needs to be. If the dog is prone to putting on weight rapidly and finds it difficult to shed the weight even when feeding the correct amount than Fat Dog Slim will be ideal.
Both recipes are made using the highest quality human grade ingredients with natural oils, Omega 3 & 6 so there will be no harm caused to joints or muscles when going on either recipe.
I hope this information helps.
