Winalot can be purchased from any Supermarket and Local shops to pet shops. Most News agents and off licences don’t tend to sell this brand.
**OVER-ALL** My dog’s love it. The texture of meat is soft but not too soft easy to mash down with a fork. But the Meaty Loaf are not so easy to mash, with this type the meat is a bit soft but more towards the hard to tough side, has bent a few forks trying to mash it. Have found that with this make the dog food doesn’t smell to bad, and the Tuna one does have Tuna in it, not just to make it taste of Tuna, which you don’t often find.
Price = Winalot 12 pack for £3.36 - Pedigree 12 pack for £5.08.
Levi and Flex have had Pedigree before, but have found this to bet all other brands. If you are after mulitpacks then you do need a supermarket. Now where I have 2 dogs and the 12 pack has 3 of each, what do I do?
As they will only have the same or one gets the hump as they would end up having a different one each. So to over come this I have to half a tin between them, when it comes to the last few in the pack. What would be a great idea is to sell mulitpacks of the same one, why not have a 6 or 12 pack of say just Tuna?
Over all, I will continue using this brand and make as the dogs love it. Before I forget, keep the dog food in a cool, dry place or once opened, cover with cling film or place in a tub and use with in 24 hours.
I always say I wouldn’t give my dog’s anything I wouldn’t eat. If I won’t eat it nor will they. Would you?
No I haven’t personally tried it, so I’m taking their words for it.

Advantages: looks lovely and no added sugar Disadvantages: A few pennies more than a lot of dog food
Winalot Roasts is quite new on the market.
When we have a family roast I always do extra of everything for my dog and he loves it so seeing the word "Roast" caught my eye.
Recently I have learnt that dog food can be a bit like food for humans and can have a lot of extras such as vitamins and sugars in them which is not always suitable for your dog.
I found this out when we had a baby in the home and didnt want a hyper active or barking dog! I ... ...this) had sugar added.
Winalot by Purina is one brand that does not have sugar mentioned so I presumed, and rightly so, that Winalot Roasts wouldnt either.
I buy my dog the 1200g tins which cost between £1.30 and £1.45 which yes it is more expensive than some but he loves it and it seems more meaty than others.
The big tins have beef in gravy, chicken, and lamb. They contain

...Rocky eats Winalot twice a day.I dont enjoy leaving dog food out to stink the kitchen out, but i dont mind with this one as its smell isnt as strong as many others.The smell of winalot always attracts my dogs attention.As soon as i open the lid he looks up at the kitchen work surface and his tail will wag which totally asures me he likes the smell and the taste of Winalot.
Winalot dog food sell a large range of food including fish flavored dog food ... ...Winalot dog food is quite affordable to buy i pay about 47p per tin and i belive that it is a 400g tin but im not %100 sure.It can be bought from any major supermarket and is never hard to find.
Overall i think my dog is %100 happy with Winalot and so is Rocky so i would give it 5 starrs as its brilliant all round. ...

Advantages: Complete nourishment, contains everything your dog needs for its daily diet Disadvantages: None
...do. She simply devoured the Winalot when we put it in her bowl - she just loved it! You can really tell when a dog enjoys their food and she ate it just like she would eat proper home cooked food, and that's the kind of tinned products you want to feed your dog.
My dog, Macey, prefers the fish flavour and Winalot Digestion + do a 'Tuna' tin and a 'Cod & Plaice' tin. She does eat the others too but having fed her fishfingers every morning as a puppy ... ...awful smell of the food. Winalot is much lighter in colour and not so covered in 'gloopy' gravy. It is more of a jelly but not nasty like some you find in dog foods. The Winalot Digestion + also contains Chicory which increases the amount of friendly bacteria in your dog's stomach by up to ten times (if you feed this on a regular basis).
I have absolutely no complaints about this food - and neither does Macey. Never has she turned up her nose at ...

...bought a pack of 12 Winalot for the price of 10 which was £5.99.
This product is manufactured by Purina.
#Presentation
Each tin has pictures of a labradour (or is it a golden retriever) on the tin in various stages of play and cutefulness. Under these pictures is a green band with the word Winalot in white lettering.
Depending on what flavour is in the tin will vary the colour of the wrapper on the tin. For example; chicken in jelly is green ... ...be buying them again.
Winalot do other products, dry complete food and doggy treats. (poor little doggy loves these too).

Advantages: Good value, Dogs enjoy it Disadvantages: Not Pedigree Chum
...In all honesty they prefer Winalot canned food above anything else.
Being Whippets they will and do eat almost anything.Basically put it in front of them and they will eat it.Having said that it is noticable that when trying them with lower quality food or even Pedigree chum, they first of all give me the knowing stare that tells me that they know, before going on to eat every piece.
I think the reason they prefer Winalot is that it comes in jelly ... ...find money off vouchers for Winalot products totalling £1.35.These coupons are readily accepted at both stores bringing the price down to something like 20.5p per can.Packs were still in store today.
I appreciate that some Dogs are more fussy than others, as are their owners but you could do both your dog and your bank balance a favour by giving them a try.

Advantages: Available in most supermarkets Disadvantages: None
Both my dogs love Winalot. They will eat other biscuits but they get really excited when they see the green box go into the cupboard. I don't have to call them when it is treat time as they can smell the contents from 100yds away and vroom they are there with their wagging tails. I used these biscuits at first to train the dogs when they were puppies but now I use them as a treat to compliment their main food and give them a balanced diet.
The product can be purchased in a number of sizes from an 800g box, a 2kg bag to a 15kg box. The packaging is mainly green with a few different shapes biscuits on display and a Labrador. I tend to buy the 2kg bag for £3.59 as it is easy to carry and store.
There are 6 different types of biscuits varying in shapes, sizes and colours - Tess has a particular liking for the bone shaped ones and isn ...

Advantages: variety of flavours Disadvantages: no handle on packaging
Winalot is a brand I have purchased for approximatley two to three months now. Prior to switching to winalot, I used a supermarkets own premium brand. My dog started to go off that product so I had to find a suitable replacement.
Therefore, in this review, my comparisons will be made to the supermarkets own premium brand.
I purchase Winalot Classics, a six pack for £3.29, consisting of;
2 x Chicken in jelly
2 x Lamb in jelly
2 x Cod and plaice in jelly
Up to now I am satisfied with winalot's products, my dog loves all of the different types available, with tuna being her favourate.
She usually eats between 1 and 2 tins per day, and has done for the last two months. My dog appears to be more alert and energetic, as at times she seemed alittle lethargic, or just lazy!
Her coat is nice and shiny, and smooth in texture. Although she ...

Advantages: Smells good. The packaging. The dog loves 'em! Disadvantages: Just a tad pricey.
I tend to buy my dog, Jazz, a number of different treats to give her a variety in life. But, I do tend to buy one kind of treat in particular more over the others. And that is 'Winalot Rewards'. Currently, if you buy them in Tesco's, you get 40 reward points on your club card.
Priced at £1.68 for 15 sticks, it is slightly over priced in my opinion, but on the plus side, they are very good, and very tasty, according to Jazz!
Each stick is approximately 4.5 inches in length, and of the colour brown. They quite bendy and chewable, making it easy for the dog to eat. There are slits down the side of each stick, which - according to the back of the packet - breaks into 6 pieces.
They smell absolutely divine! I love this smell, and quite often find myself quite literally diving into the packet to have a smell of them. They do ...
