I thought the pouches were nicely presented and fit well into the box, easy to store considering there are 12 pouches compared to his usual trays. The serving sizes are perfect for my old man Alfie, and a nice choice of flavours to choose from.
2. Please tell us how your senior dog responded to the Winalot food?
Alfie is 14, and his favourite thing in the world is food! Haha! He was very interested to have a rummage through the box, and has polished off each pouch that he has been given (the beef seems to be his favourite). He has meat mixed with his biscuits and a little water normally as its a bit softer for his teeth, and the gravy seems to soften the biscuits a little too so seems to be a bit easier for him to eat.

4. At £3.25 for a box of 12 x 100g pouches of food, do you think this is good value for money?
I think the pouches are great value for money, Alfie has had 2 pouches per day alongside his biscuits, so for less than £0.60 per day you can't really go wrong. He's really enjoyed them and deserves some tasty (and healthy) food in his old age.
Yes I would recommend the pouches, I have already mentioned about them to my sister for her dog who will be 7 in August and can be a bit fussy! We will be buying them again for Alfie as he has really enjoyed them.
We thought it looked lovely, there was plenty of information on the box and new flavours for our dog to try!

He loved it and got very excited! His tummy was alot more settled too which was great.

Really like the box and the packaging had all the information on the product you needed so was great.
2. Please tell us how your senior dog responded to the Winalot food?
He was very excited and as the pouches are a gravy variety it was nice and easy for him to eat. He ate is all and even looked at me like where is the rest!

Feedback Questions
1. What did you think of the Winalot Senior (7+) Dog Food Pouches upon receiving it?
The box that we received was full of information and it was nice to read about the brand’s history. It’s so important to know what your dog is eating so it’s very good that ingredients are included as senior dogs can have more health conditions and what they eat is a major factor. The pouches are plain but they don’t need to be anything more then what they are. It tells you what the flavour is and the other significant information that is needed. The pouches don’t need to be fancy and bright, it’s straight forward and to the point.
2. Please tell us how your senior dog responded to the Winalot food?
Our Jack has recently become an only dog, and hasn’t been as interested in food as he used to. But he would happily scoff down his Winalot even when we are having dinner ourselves (he usually waits and hopes for leftovers). I’m very glad to have a food that I know he will eat and will literally try to eat out of the pouch given a chance. So from Jack it’s a 10 out of 10.

4. At £3.25 for a box of 12 x 100g pouches of food, do you think this is good value for money?
Amazing value for money! Like all families at the moment we are feeling the pinch of the rising costs in everything. So it’s amazing to find a food that is such a good price for the quality you get.
5. Would you recommend the Winalot Senior (7+) Dog Food Pouches to other senior dog owners?
Definitely a recommend product. For all of the factors included above I can honestly say that we have and will continue to recommend Winalot.

Bentley absolutely loved it! From the moment I opened the pouch he was wagging his tail and licking his lips with excitement! The second the bowl touched the floor he was digging in!
I think it’s very reasonable! I’ve paid more for other dog food that isn’t even as good quality and my dog has refused it so I would definitely say it’s good value for money!
5. Would you recommend the Winalot Senior (7+) Dog Food Pouches to other senior dog owners?
Yes, I’d definitely recommend it as it’s good value for money, nutritious and my dog loves it!
Initially I thought the box was quite small for 12 pouches. We have used pouches from other brands before and in comparison the boxes are larger but usually contain less pouches.
This is supported by the Winalot branding stating ‘since 1927’ - nearly a century old, the consumer is reassured that the company has researched the best ingredients for the type of dog being targeted, in this case, senior dogs.
The three key selling points are on the front of the box, which is supported with small images so it easy to see what their key UPS is for this dog food.
When I took the pouch out it was evident they were small, as such I knew multiple would be required throughout the day to ensure my dog would be getting the nutrients she needed. This led me to look at the guidance for food according to weight and to maintain Peach with a weight of 9.5kg (a small dog) she would need 6 pouches a day, that therefore meant this box would only last 2 days if I fed her wet food alone.
Peach absolutely loved it, the first pouch was demolished in a couple of minutes, she was also very excited to receive it. When I opened the pouch she immediately started wagging her tail and was eager to get stuck in.
She barely gave it a sniff before tucking in and licked every last bit from her bowl. She seemed very happy after finishing the food - I would be very confident giving it to her again, knowing she would eat it, and enjoy it. I would almost be tempted to use a food bowl with ridges which has the function of slowing down the dog from eating too quickly. She did burp a few times after she finished!

If you have a large dog I would consider this a very expensive option and would probably not recommend unless they had a larger potion size option in perhaps a can or a larger pouch to make it easier to give the appropriate amount of food.
when I received the dog food pouches. I was impressed by the size of the box. It was easy to carry and to hold. I found the colours eye catching. I also enjoyed reading the story of Winalot on the side of the box.
Sasha was over excited as soon as she could smell the food! She was pawing at my leg as I was putting the food into her bowl. She barely came up for air when eating the food.

i would recommend these dog food pouches to senior dog owners. Sasha really seemed to enjoy these pouches and as they are portioned it makes feeding time more streamlined and keeps the dog happier.
I thought the packing was designed well with lots of clear information and history of the brand. The box itself was closed securely and sturdy.
2. Please tell us how your senior dog responded to the Winalot food?
Aa soon as I opened the packaging Kenti was interested. He loved the smell of the food and as soon as it was in the dish he was pleased and straight in there making meal time enjoyable.

4. At £3.25 for a box of 12 x 100g pouches of food, do you think this is good value for money?
I do think this is good value for money, especially during the current climate. I feel the pouches help to keep the food much fresher too.
5. Would you recommend the Winalot Senior (7+) Dog Food Pouches to other senior dog owners?
Yes I would. I think the food looks soft enough for senior dogs to eat and my dog had no issues or struggles eating it. You could see the chunks were sliced thinly.
