Can't remember if Wafcol salmon and potato has corn in it or not but it doesn't contain wheat.  Can't look at packet as it's been thrown away.  All I found on the net was

>Adult is a hypoallergenic, Salmon & Potato food that is free from wheat gluten, maize, barley, rye, oats, red meat, poultry, dairy products, soya and all artificial colours and flavours.


So I'm not sure if it is corn free or not.

Edit: Found ingreedients for you:

Ingredients
Potato (42%), salmon (22%), lupin, linseed, vegetable oil, seaweed
meal, FOS (soluble fibre source), vitamins & minerals.

Typical Analysis
Protein 24.0%
Oil 8.0%
Ash 7.0%
Crude Fibre 6.0%
Vitamin A 17000iu/kg
Vitamin D3 1500iu/kg
Vitamin E 65mg/kg

From what I can tell it might be what your looking for however I'm not entirly sure but have a look for yourself :)  I'm sure you'll know if there's anything wrong in the ingreedients or analysis. :)

Yep, corn free Rox (maize and corn are he same) :)
- By ice_queen Date 22.06.07 09:15 UTC
Thanks Teri, I just wasn't sure.  found ingreedients list now, rememberd how little there is in the food!

Suits our boy fine who although never tested was advised by the vet to put him on this food due to his skin going raw and then scabby.  The food has made him alot better but he was fine on pedigree untill they changed the recipe to make it "new and improved"

thanks for your replys, iv looked at orijen as i used to feed timberwolf but cant get it anymore.
it seems we are struggling to get a true premium kibble in the uk,just as you think you have found one you look at the ingrediants and find some rubbish..
i tried burns years ago but didnt really get on with it.
