I was waiting for you to throw that one at me Yes, Cody loves popcorn;and he gets a few kernels at most once a week -quite different than feeding Science Hills to him as his main kibble(something I will never do)

I don't like Science Hill pet foods and you will never convince me you feed it to Taylor either

Yes that is Montana too. So long as it isn't going to eat her first she will do all the eating. Right down to her toys. I don't buy her plastic toys because they will end up being eaten with in a day or two. Oh and the dental bones. Those are gone in 5 minutes. But she does enjoy popcorn. She will get about 5 pieces or so everytime I eat popcorn. I love watching her when I have a bag just lay next to me like "have you dropped a piece yet?"

Linda - how can I say this. It is like telling my wife I love someone else (and I do too). I have brought a huge bag of Hill's adult energy dry food which cost $100 and I plan to drip feed the food to Taylor for several days as soon as he exhausts the small supply of other dry food I have at present. So I know about the 100 percent money back guarantee that it comes with. I do believe to a certain extent, in practicing what I preach. I will let you know about Taylor's reactions to it when it gets to be around 80 percent of his dinner (which for Taylor is around his full quota of dry food daily).

Taylor loves pikletes and coincidently a sister of mine gave me a pikelete maker last week. So Taylor is in for pikeletes -minus a butter spread - any day now. To the uninitiated, pikeletes are like pancakes only easier to make and a bit more wholesome for dogs and people.

Michael,first there is a huge difference between a few pieces of popcorn once in a while vs. feeding your dog a diet comprised mostly of corn meal and by products- and as far as the refund goes, if the product causes your dog to get really sick or have allergic reactions they will refund the cost of the food- they do that here too but will they reimburse you for some of the vet bill incurred? I doubt it.

This guarantee is not just for New Zealand, it would be the same here in the U.S. also. Many different companies offer the same guarantee on their pet foods.

My word How many pounds of dry kibble did you purchase? Exactly how long do you think it will take for Taylor to consume this, or do you plan on eating it also?

Oh, good grief, a snack is different than what you feed for dinner. A few popcorns are quite ok and yes, my dogs get them too. Sheesh!

Many dog foods and/or stores will do this. Nothing new and not a reason to buy the food, IMO.

Hills biscuits are highly recommended here as well - especially good for teeth.
And Innova has some very good biscuits too. Also good for teeth and over all good for the dogs.

You paid $100 for ONE bag of food? How big is this bag?

And it's only going to last several days???? Geez, I expect $100 worth of food to last my guys over two weeks. And that's for the whole pack!!

Michael would be talking NZ dollars here, I guess - $100.00NZ is roughly $70.00US.

My big bags of Eukanuba, which are round the same size as the Hills, last for months.
