    Cheers, but Pets at Home is the only retailer to sell Wainwright's (not that they can manage that very well), it's exclusive to them. My dog has mild colitis and Wainwright's Grain Free is brilliant for him, the only food that 100% agrees with him. If it weren't for that I wouldn't bother with P@H.

    Forthglade Natural Lifestage is one option - it's available from various websites and is the same recipe as Wainwright's except that it contains brown rice, which can be a little harsh for my boy.

    Sorry didn't realise it had to be grain free. Berriewoods has rice in it.

    Taste of the Wild

    Have a read about this food, they do wet and dry (better than Wainwrights IMO)

    He can eat food with grain but only as part of his diet, so it's still a go-er. I've got a few on order to see how it goes.

    I got some Forthglade Lamb delivered today, as I say it's identical to Wainwright's (even made in the same factory) but it does have grain.

    It may be that they only keep a certain amount available for collection and you have exceeded it.

    Also have you considered making more than 1 order?
    Simply order the max that you can, then go through the process again, until you get as many as you want.

    It allowed me to order 12 trays.

    No, they courier it in to the store from their HQ warehouse. Or that's how it's supposed to work.

    Tried that. It doesn't allow any more if I max out on the first order (also their website order process is so hideously bugged that I dread going through even one order, let alone 10!) Because delivery is only free for orders over £29 that means I need 29 trays minimum on delivery. I wouldn't collect for less than 40 trays, as it's not worth it.
