Julius (Aldi) Dry Dog Food

This dog food is like poisoned my dog is vomiting since she is ealting this I realised it when I smelled the bag contains and the seeds looks like sintetic beans with chemical
Money and vet pay back

My 6 yr old Border Collie has been eating for 2 years - last 2 bags from 2 different stores won’t eat it - stinks of chemical gone back to Coles brand

This food is terrible!! I got the julus puppy food just as a substitute for the night as the pet store was closed and my puppy was whining all night and pacing and I didn’t know what was wrong and he hasn’t vomited twice this morning, I wouldn’t recommend this to anyone!

This was a great product until recently,this latest batch has a strong chemical smell to it.Rottweiler's eat anything and usually love this but now I have to go and grab something else.What's happening Aldi I swear by your products,but this is disgraceful, how do I get a sample of this really bad bag of dog food to you?

My dog won't eat this. Even my daughter's labrador, who will eat anything, refuses to eat it. Don't waste your money. It is absolutely rubbish whatever is in it. I will never buy it again.

I brought this for my fur baby to try and fill her up as she was a little over weight she was getting this for about 6 weeks took her to the vet to be eeighed and was shocked she put on 2kg, so ibstead of her losing 1kg she has to now lose 3kg

I purchased Julius Meaty Bites from Aldi last night and came home and fed my dog, I wasn't sure that he'd like them. He scoffed them all down quite quickly.
When I got up this morning his water bowl (that was full when I fed him) was bone dry! He has never drunk so much water in such a short period of time & seems a bit under the weather this morning too.
So I checked the label and they contain '1.5% crude salt'. The package claims them to have 'no artificial colours or flavours' & 'nutrionally complete and balanced'. I don't believe they are nutrionally complete or balanced, in fact they are quite the opposite and therefore unhealthy for our canines.
I don't think they should even be allowed to sell them.

I have bought a new bag last weekend. Our dog would not eat it at all! And he is a Labrador, who usually eats everything!! I will not buy it again.

Poppy is part Labrador. She has a voracious appetite. She will eat gravel if it looks like kibble. She can and does swallow her entire bowl of most brands of dog food in one gulp. She would if permitted eat her entire body weight in most dog food, and then want more. But she won't eat this. Not even with gravy.

My autoship of a good brand food didn't deliver on time (that's a whole other story) so for convenience I grabbed a bag of dog food from ALDI when doing my regular shop. Most ALDI stuff is great, but I had read the reviews on the dog food and was uncertain.

At first it was fine, no noticeable ill health effects, we even just had his annual check up and the vet said it was fine. We're just at the end of the bag today, and not last night but the night before our poor boy threw up twice. We've had him for over 2 years (he's 4) and he's never thrown up before.

Glad to see the end of the bag. Won't be buying ALDI dog food again.

And their marketing team is worried about a couple of mouldy strawberries?

My german shepard loves all aldi dog foods, the vet and everyone says how healthy he is, I give him aldi food and optimum, aldi food is great value for money and he loves the julius canned dog food.

My dogs (2 Jack Russells) are not fussy and eat anything, they ate this without even thinking about it lol. The quality of this looks very dry and is unpleasant in colour, and the smell actually resembles horse manure. My dogs have now been dining on this food for a week or so, they are doing terribly smelly farts and my male dog Charlie has started panting excessively today. I will be changing back to coles grain free dry products as they have not been causing any issues, i just thought I'd try to get all of the shopping done at one store. Ah well.

Aldi has just relaunched its dog food range saying Delious new Recipe but when compared to the old recipe crude protein, crude fat, crude fibre and energy are down percentage wise so our best mate will be eating inferior nutrients now but still at the same price. Bigger profit margins over .....our beloved Rover

The vet said my dog was obese, and despite trying all the different brand of 'lite' dry food, she was not getting any lighter. Then we saw Julius KANGAROO meat canned food. We started her on it and omg, she lost 7 kg in 9 months! The vet checked her again and she was doing great! The kangaroo meat was super lean.. high in iron and protein, and NOT oily at all! She seems to love it and we stuck to that since. If your dog is on a diet.. try this!

I cannot believe that after the deaths of 40 service dogs in Victoria & numerous deaths in the private sector which led to the withdrawal of Advantage dog food that super markets & pet barns are still promoting dry kibble in which wheat & other grains are the main ingredient.
Observe the conversion of a serve of these products to the amount of faeces they must dispose of will set the alarm bells ringing. Dogs cannot digest or even swallow these grains without difficulty & eventually will cause irreversable health problems. The AVA & manufacturer of the offending product immediatley went into denial but eventually conceded responsibility.
"ALWAYS CHECK IS THIS PRODUCT IM BUYING GRAIN FREE!!"

Have tried most dried foods over the years. The only way I can see Julius differs is that it’s cheaper

Verry bad quality dog food . Why is it one week they have pull tabs the next U need a can food .. if U want to kill Ur dog slowly and painfully then this is the stuff . I would highly recommend not using this brand .
