Has anyone tried this food on their dogs?

This is a generic food from golden acres who supply small independents and package for them so the same food can be found under a number of names - Nutrix , Heights  Farm, vet Recommended Diets and working HPR foods.

I use these foods for all my dogs and buy from workinghpr http://www.workinghprs.com/catalog/1 Adults on the Salmon or Duck , very happy with results. Dogs eat well, have good coats and energy levels, output solid :) compares well to Arden Grange etc on ingredients and scores similar quality levels on all about dog food

Reared last litter on the puppy food

I have fed Workinghprs salmon and potato and have been happy with it :-)
I went for a nosey and have noticed VRD does a breeders club (every 10th bag for free) and also their salmon&potato working dog food has more salmon in it and works out few pennies cheaper than HPRS food.
Off to register myself with VRD, thanks :-)

I contacted them about their breeders club - if you give puppy owners your code - it will count towards your 10 when they order - sounds a win win situation to me....

Noora it exactly the same food but it if offers a better deal it pays to change supplier :)

That is what I thought klb that it is same but bagged for each supplier but on the websites one says minimum 26% salmon and the other 36%... I thought maybe a different recipe as there are more options on the VPD site for foods... or does one not count salmon meal as part of salmon (looking at numbers displayed).
It does work out few pounds cheaper and the free bag after 10 bags makes a difference too :-)

Yes I think the difference is that they are quoting the % of meal :) VRD have launched a new grain free range as well, so far these are not available from workinghpr.
