If you use the search facility, there was a thread on this food a little while ago.  I can't remember when though... sorry!

From what I remember, people were impressed with it.  Don't use it myself though.

Hope this helps! :-)

It's 4 threads up from the bottom of the first page of the feeding board :D

(edited because I make no sense!)

Yep i'm currently feeding the wild n natural,and me and my dogs couldnt be happier with it :D I am planning to rotate between the flavours,for varieties sake and for the benefits of different proteins and ingredients.
There is nothing close to this food in the UK and hopefully it will be the catalyst in making healthy meat based foods the norm here, instead of the regular grain based fare forced upon our pets!

I know alot of owners who feed it from the american dog boards i am members of,and i have heard nothing but positive results.

Erm, I have bought mine a bag of Timberwolf to try and I'm in 2 minds about it.  I bought the 'fish' variety and it's got quite a strong herby smell almost like rosemary, 2 of my dogs aren't that keen on it, the other loves it.   I think that herb smell is putting 2 of them off so I've had to resort to mixing warmed tripe through it AND they seem to be doing a lot of poop on it and not that firm either.

So, at this present time I can't say I'd recommend it 100%.

I have had mine on the Dakota Bison for about a month now. Coats are marvellous, lots of unsolicited compliments on my boy's coat at club show last week (RBD and sired the BIS). They were on Royal Canin previously, and Bryn's coat had a slick feel to it that has gone completely; Ruby who is 12 was getting a bit sparse but she has now grown in a lovely, fine and shiny but dense coat. Energy levels way up (help!), teeth are cleaner and they can't get enough of it (though to be honest they aren't exactly choosy). This one smells very herby too, and it's a useful kibble size. The bitch (cast iron stomach) took to it immediately with no issues, but Bryn took a while for his toilet habits to settle, for at least 2 weeks he did rather a lot and it was on the soft side, but he has now settled back to his previous habit of once daily, firm efforts, without the bouts of colitis he used to get. They have maintained their bodily condition on the same quantities as they were having of the RC, despite the calorie count being a fair bit lower; I assume due to the quality/digestibility of the ingredients. It won't suit every dog, but I am very happy with how mine are doing on it and will be ordering a second bag soon.

My young'en seems to be doing very well on it, coat is super shiney and he really seems to love it (it is also very 'herby'..it is the 'south west' one) my only concern is with my 3 yr old GR, Since we started her on it she has put on about 2 kilos...which we confirmed at the vets last week, but I am feeding her what appears to me to be a very little amount (lower than what is recommended for her weight) If I cut it down more to stop anymore weight going on then I would imagine she will be very hungry as there will hardly be anything in her bowl. She was on Burns previously and that kept her lovely and lean...I dont want her turning into a rolypoly golden so I am considering putting her back on Burns. Funnily enough it was the Golden that took to it straight away, nice firm stools all the way through the switch....it was my crossbreed that had the trouble getting on to it, it took about 3 weeks to get him firm again, but now he is on it he is doing very well.
