“Best dog food I’ve come across”
Reviewed 27th May 2018
Changed our dogs feed from James Wellbeloved to Harringtons as we could no longer afford to feed him it and he started to starve himself he wouldn’t touch it was getting worried but as soon as I started mixing in Akela he started to eat again he loves the fish flavour now every time I place his feed bowl down it’s gone straight away! Am very happy, such a great price as you don’t have to feed very much.

“Basset's delight”
Reviewed 17th May 2018
I have three Basset Hounds that are currently on SYMPLY kibble which is a hypoallergenic food with all natural ingredients.
All my girls are quite happy but it is time to switch to a "senior" food so I done some research. I noticed that AKELA was suitable for all ages and had lots more fruit and veg in it than my current brand so I ordered 3 trial packs, one of each flavour. Now anyone who has a Basset knows that they eat just about anything and are very greedy. I put a few pieces of the old and the trial pack in 2 separate piles and let them choose. They all ate AKELA first so I will be ordering 3 large packs (different flavours) to start our changeover. They were definitely more enthusiastic with this brand. So glad we are making the change! Best regards Tina Spear |

“Akela Whole Prey Fish Feast Puppy Pack”
Reviewed 9th May 2018
An excellent introduction to Akela Whole Prey dog food, also includes a feeding and nutrition guide.
I have a 10 month old GSD an incredibly fussy eater, she has shown very little interest in other "Premium" complete dry dog food which needed to be mixed with a small amount of wet food to get her interested. When I introduced her to the 80-20 Fish Feast she eats it straight away without any encouragement or additions. This is a truly excellent dog food, just read the list of quality ingedients and do a little research you will I'm sure see why I have chosen to feed my puppy Akela Whole Prey. The Puppy pack provides a perfect way of finding out if this brand is the one for your dog, a choice of Fish, Original or Duck in small medium or large kibble. |

“New wonder dog food?”
Reviewed 26th March 2018
![]() It looks excellent, dog loves it and quite rightly it gets 5stars in another comparison website. The price varies widely, from £38 for 10kg on Akela website to £49 on Amazon!! I am presuming this is a relatively new food, and I am looking round as I obviously want to give my dog the best! Interested to know how it compares with McAdams complete food,and what other people thought , thanks DaveH |

“Perfect food for my litter ”
Reviewed 25th March 2018
I can't speak highly enough of this food! I used the Fish Feast for my litter of 10 Golden Retriever puppies & Mum & it was fabulous. Everyone ate it up quickly, no upset tummies, fabulous coat condition, no flaky skin....superb. The other bonus is that Mum could eat plenty of food & had maximum nutrition without getting full too quickly which happens with other kibble which swells so much when wet. Akela stays the same size so I know digestion must be excellent. I would definitely use it again & if you like the idea of raw feeding but can't face the practical side, this is the perfect alternative. Thank you Akela!

“So far so good....”
Reviewed 24th March 2018
A friend recommended Akela for our two dogs as the one seems to have a delicate stomach. Ordering was easy and delivery quick (I like their auto re-ordering as well). Both dogs love it and lap it up. I use it as a training treat as well. So far so good with the dogs.....

“Great switch from Royal Canin to Akela”
Reviewed 14th March 2018
My breeder recommended wetted Royal Canin Junior for our Shetland Sheepdog puppy and was very generous with advice and a gift pack. All worked well, but his stools were a little orange, slightly smelly and quite soft. This led the puppy to regular eat what he pooed. The Kennel Club and other sites implied over-feeding, but also advised that the stools should be firm and reasonably dark. I researched various reviews and looked at 80:20 food options. Akela came out well and claimed the small paws kibble would work for puppies. We decided to give it a try. Upon arrival, the puppy was curious and took the kibble dry. Unfortunately this lasted just one feed. I cut the Royal Canin Junior 50:50 with a general reduction to less than 10% RCJ and the rest Akela. During the first week, I found myself hand feeding from the bowl with a spoon and a wetted feed. Finally, the puppy ate on his own again with no intervention and has wetted kibble in the morning and dry in the evening. The results have been excellent. Firstly his stools dried up, barely any smell and he rarely goes near them, and secondly, his coat sheens more and has a softer texture than before. The best pricing was direct from Akela, but with a decent amount to get the benefit of free shipping. I pay around 25% more, but it is worth it. I would not turn people away from Royal Canin, as it worked well, however, Akela works really well for my puppy and I will continue with Akela and recommend it.

“Akela Raw food as good as the dry”
Reviewed 7th March 2018
Have had my 2+ year old German Short Haired Pointer on Akela dry since a pup, he has a delicate stomach and suffers terribly on anything other. Recently I started to mix his diet by adding the Akela raw meals, he loves the duck, chicken and turkey varieties all pre-mixed with a good level of fruit, pulses, vegetables etc. I’m happy, he’s an active dog who needs good structure to his diet, not just bulked out with rice, grain etc used by so many other brands.
Packs are delivered in freezer boxes, I just pop a couple in the fridge to defrost every couple of days. Simple, clean, doesn’t smell and neither does his waste. |

“Approved by fussy eater who needs a specific diet ”
Reviewed 19th February 2018
I have been using 80:20 Akela fish feast for around a year, my Saint Bernard is a very fussy eater and she also has food allergies. This food suits her very well - Shiny coat, happy tummy and a dog who is full of life. Before starting her on Akela she was half bald, itchy and very quiet... not herself at all. I can't recommend this food enough it has worked absolute wonders for her.
My only suggestion to improve it further would be more choice of flavours, something like just lamb or just venison, as the original and duck flavours my girl can't eat due to her allergies, it would be nice to have more choice. |

“Amazing food, amazing results!”
Reviewed 19th February 2018
![]() He had suffered various allergies (constant ear infections, loss of fur on his head etc) and after endless visits to the vet for antibiotics and steroids creams without success we decided to look at his diet and after putting him on Akela the results were incredible. Within two weeks the ear problems had gone and the fur on his head started to grow back! We haven’t been back to the vets since! His coat is shiny and he’s one happy bulldog! We highly recommend Akela! |
