Hi all! :)

I used to buy the Fish4dogs squares in the 200g packs, but they seem to have discontinued that size.

I have noticed the other ones seem to have crept up in price too! I used to pay £4 odd for 200g on Amazon its £12 for 3x 100g bags now! Has anyone found any other brands or anywhere cheaper to buy them?

Prefer smaller size ones as she's only little & they are stinking things that I really don't want to be trying to divide / break them up!!! :p

These sort

    Fish4Dogs sell direct and often have special offers; sometimes as good as BOGOF.


    www.fish4dogs.com


    The best offers are on larger packs, but they have a very long use by date.

    hmc - You do mean 100% fish skins nothing added to them? Wouldn't have thought of looking there. Thanks

    Thank you hmc, would really appreciate that if you could! :) :T

    I'm not able to get there, but if they are the ones then I could then ask someone to buy some for me!

    I've bought fish skins from there and yes they are 100 %, I do always check the sell by/use by date on them though as I've picked some up that have been well past the date.

    Sell by dates mean nothing. Just ignore that the treats will be absolutely fine. It is just to protect the manufacturer and is a legal requirement. They certainly won't go off within several months of being past the date unless there is a hole or something else in the packaging.

    Also I'm pretty sure poundstretcher sells them for £1.99 for 200g but poundland I've seen them in there at about 200g for £1 if you can get there. May be worth ringing your local one so they can check before you make a trip down there.

    Unfortunately I'm a bit anal on dates, I was in poundstrechers a few months ago and some of the fish skins had last years date on them, I'm afraid I just wouldn't think about buying them but that's just me 😂.
