Take a chill-pill kenshaz!
I just did state what it costs:kenshaz wrote:Would some-one please tell me what Burns COSTS
If you have a look at online store, you'll see that their basic varieties cost £6.35 for 2kg, £17.86 for 7.5kg and £34.65 for 15kg.Georgina wrote:A 7.5kg sack lasts me over three months (but using 90 days as a guide), so it costs me a maximum of 20 pence per day.
This link will show you the approximate cost for feeding Burns per day.
No, I am not an agent for Burns, I do not gain from the links, or have any financial interest in Burns. I am merely a very satisfied customer.kenshaz wrote:Georgina and Purple moon are you agents for Burns,have you any financial interests or gain ,please declare if you have ,do you gain from the links

Just found this page http://www.gilpa.co.uk/frame_productrange.php?site=djohn&page=productrange&category=3&product=8&stage=1
It recommends approx 15g per kg body weight a day, which would work out at approx 10p per day for a 15kg dog, so yes much cheaper and quite similar in analysis to the Burns food

Purplemoon you have my respect,and your honesty is a credit,so if it is similar in analysis and much cheaper,that would suit Becles,**purplemoon** wrote:Just found this page http://www.gilpa.co.uk/frame_productrange.php?site=djohn&page=productrange&category=3&product=8&stage=1

No I don't sell it. TBH, you are coming across as having a bit of a problem re. Burns - I could ask if you work for the competition! OP asked for a decent quality feed that wasn't too expensive and as myself and another poster have pointed out you need to feed your dog a much smaller quantity (about half or a third) of Burns than you would a cheaper food, making it the same price or cheaper in the long run. I don't think under £2 a week is a lot to feed a medium-sized dog at all.kenshaz wrote:Wow £32 a bag wow is it dog caviar,I would not feed that ,even though I can afford it far to expensive ,do you sell it3-6 Month Emergency Fund #14: £9000 / £10,0000 -
I was merely replying to your questions. I am on a very slow network here, so other posters had answered your questions before my machine caught up.kenshaz wrote:Please stop pushing Burns THE THREAD WAS ABOUT A FOOD FOR LESS THAN £20 A BAG,PLEASE KEEP TO THE THREAD,sorry if you did not read the original post
The OP did not specify what size bag/sack would be required for under £20 - so don't be sorry - I did read it."No matter how little money and how few possesions you own, having a dog makes you rich." - Louis Sabin0 -
No I have no links with dog food or sell ,BUT i am on a MSE site and purplemoon has just shown this forum how cheaply MSEs can feed their dogs ,maintain them in healthy and fit manner cheaply ,it took a long time to get their ,but we have,Dr JOHNS is cheaper than Burns,with a similar analysis,I rest my caseRosie75 wrote:No I don't sell it.
