I had a similar experience, 7 dogs and the first feeding there was food left in all the bowls, ended up mixing it with their regular food to use it up, not complaining though at the price I paid but wasn't a winner for the dogs, now the magnums went down a treat yes I shared a bite or two....haha

LMAO I had the opposite problem this morning.

Came down the stairs to see my sprnger looking extremely guilty and perhaps a little chubbier than normal....

Went to feed the cats and :eek: I had left the lid off the cat food tub. Looks like the dog has eaten close to 2kg of Iams CAT food.

He is going to be getting lots of extra walking today to get that off his system 26% protein!!!

NOTE: Did call the vet and they said not to worry just keep an eye on him his 'stools' might be a bit loose!

He is now lying in his bed asleep looking very contented!!!! :cool:

HAHAHA, brilliant clever dog, you will be busy cleaning up after that one I suspect. at least what what he ate won't hurt him.

I know it has been mentioned before but I have not seen it for a while.
Why not put some of your cheap/free shopping to a fantastic cause, I am not trying to start the whole "Our government should be supporting them, not us debate" just trying to help people do their good deeds for the day.
Operation Shoebox is a great site which sends out carepackages in the form of shoeboxes filled with basic goods which are well received by our troops abroad.
The types of things they are after are:

• Cotton T shirts, Vests, Sports Socks
• Flip flops
• Beanie hats
• Gloves (please be aware that black is the most widely accepted colour)
• Combs, Hair scrunchies
• Emery boards, small hand/body lotion
• Toothbrushes & Toothpaste
• Lip salve
• Small tins of vaseline (green& yellow)
• Disposable Razors
• Roll on deodorants
• Small packs of wet wipes
• Small baby powder
• Foot powder
• Shower gels and shampoo sachets
• Panty Liners & Tampons
• DVDs, CDs, MP3 players
• Electronic Games
• Computer Games for Wii and Xbox
• Travel Board Games, Playing Cards,
• Puzzle books, Notebooks & Pens
• Magazines, small paperbacks
• Individual pots of marmalade, jam, chutney, honey
• Small tubes of mustard, condensed milk
• Small tins of ravioli, macaroni cheese, tuna.
• Small tins of fruit in juice
• Pot Noodles, Supernoodles,
• Curry Powder, Oxo Cubes, Marmite sachets
• Cup-a-soups
• Tea Bags (all types incl. fruit teas), Coffee Sachets
• Horlicks, Ovaltine and Hot Chocolate drink sachets
• All Biscuits - REMEMBER NO CHOCOLATE
• Jammie Dodgers, Chocolate Chip, Fig Rolls
• Cereal Bars,
• Variety packs of Cereals
• All varieties of Pringles (large and small packs)
• Crisps, Peanuts
• Cheddar biscuits, oatcakes
• Small bags/boxes of Dried Fruit

There are quite a few items on there that can be pulled together with no cost to us, I'm sure a few Fray Bentos pies would be well received too.

Thanks for your time.

can i just say about the iams.....im not telling people not to buy it as i couldnt wait to get some but between me and my mum we have 8 dogs i gave some for mums dogs and i had some they hate it,really shocked me but they do.....of course this doesnt mean all dogs will but we do have 8 to test it on.

I wouldnt even consider giving it to my dog, have a look at the actual ingredients, its full of corn, by-products, salt cheap fillers and preservatives.

Did my first DTD shop yesterday, fingers crossed! Think I got it right, will update when vouchers appear!

Have to say I have always avoided Mr T and Mr A. One being to expensive and the other being crap. Mr A might be cheaper, but the quality is cr*p to compensate. There mushy peas are yellow???? and while rushing I picked up a standard £2, 800g pack of mince and got home to find that on closer inspection, they can match Mr T on price because it is only 60% beef, the rest is pork, which is considerably cheaper. Prefer to stick to Mr M and Aldi.

Can I just say Thankyou again, we are not very well off, and it is REALLY nice not to have to limit the simple things. To know that when DD asks for another yoghurt, apple or biscuit, I don't have to say no because otherwise they won't last the week. You lot have really made a big difference to me and I am very grateful.

ETA: have not forgotten those who need things, in my first shop I found room to get easter eggs for the local kids raffle and the dog food for the local rescue home, will do the shoe boxes next time. Doesn't matter what you got, there is always someone who needs things more.

someone mentioned that the fray bentos pies are no good as they need to be cooked.
