Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.

Burns Grain Free Duck & Potato is a 2 kg bag of dry dog food for adult and senior dogs, ranked seventh in this guide. At £13.69 it works out at £6.85 a kilo — 3.4 times the £1.99 a kilo of the 15 kg Alpha sack, and just under the £8.67 a kilo the 1.5 kg James Wellbeloved bag asks. Its 4.4 rating from 114 ratings sits at the bottom of the 4.3–4.8 band this group occupies, so price per kilo and score do not move together here.

Two fields in the Burns listing also disagree with each other. The Best Sellers Rank reads "12 in Freeze-Dried Dog Food", while the item form is given as granule and the product is a dry food — freeze-dried and dry are not the same thing. The rating breakdown does not add up either: 79 five-star, 7 four-star, 4 three-star and 10 one-star come to 100 ratings, but the listing states 114. Everything on this page is taken from the Amazon listing, not from any test of ours.

“Great for sensitive stomachs and a hit with my fussy dogFinding a dry food that suits a dog with a sensitive stomach can be a challenge, so I was keen to try this Burns Sensitive Grain Free Duck and Potato recipe. After several weeks of feeding it to my Cane Corso cross Staffy, Blue, I've been very pleased with the results.Blue can sometimes be prone to digestive upset when his food is changed, so I introduced this gradually. He took to it straight away, which was encouraging as he's not always enthusiastic about new foods. The kibble size is suitable for larger dogs, and he seems to genuinely enjoy the taste.What I've noticed most is how well he has tolerated it. His digestion has remained settled, and he's maintained good energy levels throughout. His coat looks healthy, and he continues to hold a good body condition without any issues.I like the fact that the recipe is grain free and uses duck as the main protein source, which can be a useful option for dogs that don't do well on more common proteins. The ingredients inspire confidence, and Burns has a good reputation for producing quality pet food.Pros:✔ Suitable for dogs with sensitive digestion✔ Grain-free recipe✔ Duck protein can be a good alternative for sensitive dogs✔ Well tolerated during food transition✔ Good quality ingredients✔ Large 12kg bag offers good valueCons:✘ More expensive than some supermarket brands✘ The large bag can be awkward to store once openedOverall:This has been a successful food for my dog and one I'd happily buy again. It's well made, appears to use quality ingredients, and most importantly, Blue enjoys eating it while maintaining good digestive health. If you're looking for a grain-free option for a dog with a sensitive stomach, this is definitely worth considering.”
