  • Just came across this - never seen this one before (I wonder if it's been out of stock until recently?)

    If you struggle with the smell of the Fresh one it might mix with it?

    It looks to be pretty similar - and as it's quite a bit cheaper, even if you need to use slightly more, it should still be more cost effective than the GG

    pity the free delivery gone up to 29, was good when it was free with a £19.00 order....

    Yay! :D

    I really like it too but was worried you wouldn't :o (was there something previously that smelt funny?)

    I know - I hate delivery being £29 now.

    - consider possiblity of Belgian Shepherd mixed with German Shepherd.

    I judge pastoral breeds (including BSD and GSD) at international championship level and (from looking at all the photos you have posted of your dog) can say with some certainty that the chances of her having any Belgian Shepherd in her are zero %.

    She appears to be just a poorly bred GSD - though, obviously, a much loved pet :). Just my professional opinion :cool:.

    Certainly looks the same / same info on bag etc - just seems to be 'classic' rather than 'fresh'

    If it's still around the next time I need to order anything, I'll stick a couple of bags in (purely for investigative purposes of course! ;)) - I'm pretty well stocked up now :);)

    TBH I think unless it was a substantial saving (say if the other one was full price) then I think I'd always get the 'fresh' one - I do really like the 'fresh' smell it has! :) (I guess you could mix them if the same apart from the smell)
