I just wanted to let any other Aussie Forum members that there is an exciting new place in Australia that sells premium dog food! Not sure about any of you but I find it SO hard to find places that sell premium dog food apart from Eukanuba and Iams (which is not good!)

It's an internet place - the site is www.pawsonly.com.au

They sell foods like Eagle Pack and Dick Van Pattens, and deliver by post to all of Australia, and will HAND DELIVER to Sydney residents (like myself!) - FOR FREE!.

On Monday, I placed an order for a pack of DVP online, for a VERY reasonable price, and it was hand delivered to my home last night by a really nice Paws Only staff member, together with a complimentary pack of doggy treats for Patch!

I am SOOOO impressed with their service, and would recommend all other Aussie Forum members to purchase from this company!

I just had to share my excitement!

Are you keeping in mind that the prices are in AUSTRALIAN DOLLARS not American dollars....

$1 australian is about 75cents US

so i paid $45 for 6 kg, which would be about $35 American dollars

i think it's expensive... but you have to pay that for good dog food here!

what are the prices like in the USA? I'm curious!?

So that's 13.2 lbs for $35 (USD) - holy crap.

A 35 lb (15.9 kg) bag of DVP here is usually under $40 (USD). I guess you're paying for the shipping, but sheesh.

No wonder the whole premium dog food thing isn't as big down here!

That's why i get laughed at when i tell people how much i spend on Patch's food!

Yes - but look on the bright side - you have koala Bears and Kangaroos :wink:
A beautiful country and an accent I would give my left tooth to have. Gotta love it.

Correction: Koalas, NOT Koala Bears (they're not bears).
And yes, i wouldn't want to live anywhere else.
But what do you mean 'accent'?
