BIG DOG Standard Range Frozen Raw Dog Food - Tasmanian Salmon 3kg

This is the Core recipe that puts ocean-fresh Tasmanian salmon first — the omega-3-led flavour, not a poultry or red-meat bowl. Chicken and pasture-raised lamb back it up so it stays a mixed-protein complete meal. Reach for it when you want the salmon-forward dinner in the Standard range; Sensitive Skin is the specialised skin-and-coat recipe if you need that range instead.
