\"Bunji
\n <\/figure>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

When a DIY store sells dog food how good do you expect it to be?<\/p>\n

Bunning\u2019s tell you it\u2019s good, and you\u2019ll find on their website the following quote:<\/p>\n

\n

At Bunji, we believe in real food, real connection and real care \u2013 because our dogs aren\u2019t just pets, they\u2019re family.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

For the sake of this review we\u2019ll cover the ingredients of Nanna\u2019s Lamb & Saltbush Stew<\/strong>. It sounds delightful, doesn\u2019t it?<\/p>\n

If you think your dog would fancy the Roast Beef & Bush Rosemary Pie<\/strong> kibble then don\u2019t worry, this review will tell you all you need to know \u2013 so read on.<\/p>\n

Bunji review<\/span><\/h2>\n

What the marketing says<\/span><\/h3>\n

At the top of the Bunji dog food bags you\u2019ll find in ALL CAPS the words \u201cTHE SCIENCE OF THE COUNTRY\u201d.<\/p>\n

Given we love our country and trust in science, do you think they\u2019re appealing to our inner belief anything homegrown and scientific is the pinnacle of dog nutrition?<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t count on it, it\u2019s meaningless marketing.<\/p>\n

The \u201cEvery Bowl, Gets Tails Waggin\u201d claim is also, just, marketing.<\/p>\n

\u201cDog Kibble\u201d is accurate, but obviously says nothing about the quality of Bunji as a good option for your dog.<\/p>\n

What the ingredients really<\/em> say<\/span><\/h3>\n

If your Nanna made a wholesome Lamb & Saltbush stew, what do you think she would make it from?<\/p>\n

I\u2019m guessing wheat<\/strong> and faba beans<\/strong> didn\u2019t jump into your mind?<\/p>\n

However, wheat<\/strong> is the main ingredient in both recipes of Bunji dog food, and that\u2019s Issue #1 \u2013 it\u2019s a cheap widely used filler, and a telltale sign of a cheaply produced dog food.<\/p>\n

Not only is wheat not ideal for dogs with dietary sensitivities (in the same way diesel isn\u2019t ideal for petrol cars), it\u2019s probably one of the main causes of diet-related issues in Aussie dogs.<\/p>\n

How\u2019s that for scientific?<\/p>\n

The second ingredient is faba beans which is a little better, but still doesn\u2019t scream \u201ccanine\u201d, does it? Throw a steak in a faba bean field, and what do you think your dog will go for?<\/p>\n

It\u2019s the third ingredient which is more appropriate for your dog, which is thankfully lamb <\/strong>(Hooray, we got there in the end!).<\/p>\n

It\u2019s a dried protein-dense lamb powder (lamb meal), and I found a claim stating this to be equivalent to 32% of the recipe \u2013 although this would mean the wheat and faba beans are 64% or more of the recipe.<\/p>\n

Poultry meal<\/strong> as the fourth ingredient is more appropriate than wheat and faba beans, but given we\u2019ve already accounted for 96% of the recipe in the top 3 ingredients we know we\u2019ve jumped down to \u201cminor\u201d ingredients.<\/p>\n

Sorghum<\/strong> \u2013 pretty pointless for your dog.<\/p>\n

Beef tallow<\/strong> \u2013 Ok, at least it\u2019s an animal product.<\/p>\n

Mill run<\/strong> \u2013 What on earth for? Very low grade filler, not good for your dog.<\/p>\n

Everything else \u2013 okay, some minor benefits and necessary inclusions (nice to see a speck of Blue Lipped Mussel for example), but it\u2019s not screaming quality to me.<\/p>\n

What may appeal to you is the price, or picking up a bag of Bunji on a Saturday morning when you nip in to get a cheap sizzly sausage.<\/p>\n

Oh, and by the way, the Roast Beef & Bush Rosemary recipe is almost identical, It\u2019s only these two ingredients which have been switched from lamb meal and saltbush (last ingredient and most miniscule ingredient).<\/p>\n

As a dog food I can\u2019t recommend Bunji.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s cheap, and even \u201cgetting what you pay for\u201d is debatable given your dog\u2019s diet is essential for their health.<\/p>\n

You want your dog to be healthy, right? <\/p>\n

Where to buy?<\/span><\/h2>\n

\n\t\t\t\t\t\tI couldn’t possibly recommend a dog food with the main ingredient being wheat.\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
