When changing foods, it is important to do so gradually so your pet gets used to new flavours and textures. We suggest a week.
For maximum freshness, close packaging tightly between feeds, or store product in an airtight container. Store in a cool, dry place away from sunlight.

Our dog has been on this since a pup, (now 10 months) and absolutely loves it. Also makes her coat look absolutely gorgeous
Good option for an easy meal, he enjoys it and keeps him fill
Our boy has gone through a few different brands and since the latest switch we will be going back to Blackhawk. Was the biscuits he was least hesitant to, paired with omega oil, pre and probiotics. The least resistance for him eating as a growing large cross breed and well valued.
After trying most brands Black Hawk solved all our puppies digestive problems. Scooping up after her at the end of the day is now easy.
I absolutely love this puppy food. My puppies have the best looking coats and are all so healthy. Been using for years and won't stop!
