Grain Free Foods Available in Europe

I get called to go to Europe to train quiet often, and am having a hard time finding grain free foods over there(I won't do raw, for personal reasons).

Does anyone in Europe know of any Grain Free Foods to look for when there?

Re: Grain Free Foods Available in Europe

Could you maybe bring whatever food you feed with you to europe? I dont know anything about europe so that might not be realistic but it's a ideal.

Where in Europe do you get called to train?
I know in the U.K. they can get Orijen. Do a google search for Orijen and see if they have any store locators or distibuters in other countries.

I don't think most European countries have as many choices in petfoods as we have here in North America.

I am usually in Spain or Italy, sometimes in France. I like Orijen, and will check that out.

I do take some with me, but depending on how long I stay, that is not always an option(I was in Spain over X-Mas for over a month). Since I try to never check a bag......

Also, there is *sometimes*,not always....and issue with customs about bringing in food products....Not always, but sometimes....It tends to be more of a problem bringing food back....

Spain? I have a friend in Spain who does a lot of work with Mastiffs. If you let me know what area, I can ask her for a list of places who have grain free foods.

That would be wonderful! My next trip to Majorca is likely going to be in September. I don't know that I will get over before that.

Unless I decide to take my Beauceron over and show in the Worlds in Sweden, which might or might not happen.

Okay, I'll fire off an email to her. May take a day or two cause she's a busy lady but I'll post her answer back here for you.

Please let me know! I am glad to hear about English....My spanish is horrid....but on Majorca, that isn't much of an issue, as it seems so many are English!

But I am learning!

Re: Grain Free Foods Available in Europe

To Kclinch,
been down to pet store today no english speakers (typical) so I had a look at the bags of kibble, some had high % protein but I didn't understand the rest of ingredients, the english girl is back at the weekend so I'll call then. I phoned a pet store in cala dor in majorca to see if they could help but his english was as good as my spanish. Untill I can find out more for you check out this web site

As well as the Orijen from Zooplus, Nature's Variety Raw Instinct is available from another German company called Catscountry..
