Anyone used Hi-Tek Naturals Grain Free? - YorkieTalk.com Forums

sganow · 07-05-2012, 09:42 AM

Wondering if anyone has used Hi-Tek Naturals Grain Free kibble? There is a store here that started carrying it and said it is a very good food for the money. I just don't see a lot of reviews for this food and hate to use something that I can't find a lot of positive reviews for.

Another kibble they suggested is Pulsar. It is made by Horizon. It is a relatively new line of food and I can't find actual reviews for this food either. If anyone has any experience or feedback, I'd love to hear it.

i have never heard of the hi tek food
but i do know that the horizon pulsar is supposed
to be excellent food. I saw a few good reviews on it..
the quality and ingredients look really good too

Check out amazon.com for reviews.

Thank you, good suggestion! I found a couple reviews on Amazon for Hi-Tek Naturals Grain Free and they were very positive. I found a couple reviews there for Pulsar and they were both very negative.

Yeah, I read those reviews too. Seems like the grain free has good reviews but the regular formulas aren't as great but I don't know. This is a new brand to me! Were you considering any other brands??

unfortunately every brand of foods out there are going to have positive/negative reviews.
we all have our opinions on what we like to feed our pets.
when i choose food for my pets i do not base my decision solely on customer reviews..

That's true. I don't base my pup's food choice solely off other customer reviews either but those definitely provide very important information to me along with other factors like the company's history, where they get ingredients from, customer service, etc... A lot of foods look good on the back of the bag but I still like to see what other customers' experiences have been even though different pets will react differently to the same foods.

yes, you are right . I agree with that.
I do like to read the reviews myself..
It gives me a good idea what people think of the food
then i just weigh the pros/cons

I just emailed the company for more information! Hopefully they'll have some good stuff for me to share!

Well, I got a bag of the grain free to try it out. I also got a small package of Nature's Variety raw medallions to try. I am considering doing a combination of kibble and raw.

I do raw in the AM and grain-free kibble at night! Toki does really well on this!

I wouldn't feed this one personally-it mentioned pork in the ingredients and Jaeger has never done well with pork-it upsets his stomach.

My dogs have had Fromm Pork and Applesauce before, so I don't think the pork will cause any problems for them. I will know more after this week I guess. They are just now starting to get some of the new kibble.

How are they liking the Hi-Tek so far? Which grain-free formula did you go with?
