Denes to exhibit at Interzoo 2008 in Nuremberg - 25th April 2008

Interzoo 2008Following success at Interzoo 2006, Denes will again be exhibiting at the show from Thursday 22nd May until Sunday 25th May 2008. This is one of the largest trade shows for the pet trade and takes place in Nuremberg, Germany every 2 years. All trade enquiries in respect of our ranges of products, which demonstrate our commitment to our holistic and natural approach to pet care, are welcome on the stand 606 in Hall 9. Denes continues to seek distributors in key European, North American and Asian markets.

Price Rise – Monday 21st April 2008

Here at Denes we have always endeavoured to maintain price stability, but costs continue to rise rapidly and we cannot avoid the pressure to increase prices. This increase will be our first since 1st May 2005, since when we have absorbed all increases from our suppliers. Notwithstanding this, we have restricted the rises across our ranges to between 3.45% and 6.75%. The ranges most affected are our food ranges.

For further clarification, supplier costs have risen due to:

  • The rising prices of raw materials, in particular cereals and herbs.
  • The increased demand for cans and lids.
  • The impact of rising oil prices on transport costs.
  • The impact of rising oil prices on packaging costs, primarily medicine pots.

You have our assurance that we will continue our efforts to contain costs, whilst still producing high quality, good value and effective products.

Finally, our new pricing structure will be available on our website from Monday 21st April and as indicated above will apply to all orders received on and after that date, including those placed by post on current copies of our Denes Direct order form.

OPTIONS for healthy skin and coat - Friday 18th April 2008

Lisa from South Wales writes:
"I just write to let you know of my experiences with your Options Complete Cat Food. I have 4 cats, 3 of which have had skin problems in the past. One cat in particular has suffered greatly with itchy skin, to the point where she had actually started pulling her own fur out. I bought some of your OPTIONS Dry Cat Adult Healthy Skin Rich in Chicken & Turkey with Rice, (not feeling optimistic I have to confess) but the change in my cats has been quite extraordinary since I've been feeding them this food. Their skin and coat has improved, and the cat that used to pull her own fur out has stopped doing so completely. Thank you!"

Abby's good test results - 12th March 2008

Bearberry (pictured) is an active ingredient in Denes Kidney TabletsMrs Wade from Ashford writes:
"My dog, Abby, is a 12 1/2 year old Cocker Spaniel bitch and she became incontinent in July 2006. It was diagnosed that Abby had a chronic bladder infection and there were crystals in her urine which did clear up after a short time. It was also mentioned that there was some protein in her urine around that time.

"I got a second opinion on Abby's general condition last September and the result of the urine test was that Abby's sample showed a significant amount of protein in her urine, at a ratio of 2.2. As a result I started giving Abby Denes Kidney Tablets and when she had another urine test in December 2007 the ratio had gone down to 1.6. Abby has just had her third urine test with our current vet and the ratio has gone down to under 1! I am obviously delighted and can only put it down to Denes Kidney Tablets."

New Pill Cutter / Crusher on the way - 1st February 2008

Brilliant Milk Thistle Plus - 28th January 2008

Milk Thistle Plus tabletsLyn from Leicestershire writes:
"I just had to write to say how brilliant your Milk Thistle Plus Tablets are. My 13 year old cocker spaniel has had blood results back today and her liver enzymes are all back to a 'normal' range. Previously, 2 of them had been high. I credit this entirely to your Milk Thistle Plus Tablets - which my vet recommended. Many, many thanks and please don't EVER stop making them!"

Natural alternatives for cat and dog! - 7th January 2008

Greenleaf and kidney tabletsLaurence, from Lancashire writes:
"One year ago my young cat was diagnosed with renal failure, we were devastated, so we put him on Denes Green Leaf Tablets and Kidney Tablets. Today, I took him to the vets and he had a blood test, he has now been diagnosed with fully functioning kidneys and no sign of the failure. I and my wife are great believers in herbs and natural alternatives but this is remarkable and without these pills my cat was destined to a life of a couple of years, now he could go on for at least another 12. I shall continue with the pills for as long as he lives. We also give our elderly dog your herbal products and what a difference in him. A few months ago his immune system was very bad but now, at 11, he is like a young dog again, even the vet is amazed. We are lucky our vet is a believer in alternatives. Many thanks to everyone for these products, long may you continue to help us pet owners who believe you can help and cure illnesses without drugs."

Website Winner!! – 6th December 2007

'Emergency' Flower EssenceSusan from West Kirby, Wirral writes:
"My two dogs each year are terrified of the noisy fireworks that seem to last most of November. I bought the Flower Emergency Essence from your excellent website and used it each evening in their water bowl. What a difference!!! We were amazed at how relaxed the dogs were. Brilliant. We will visit our friends on New Year's Eve now, secure in the knowledge that we can leave the dogs for a couple of hours and not worry if fireworks are set off to celebrate 2008! Thank you."

Garlic to the Rescue! - 8th November 2007

Thanks to Denes, Jackie no longer has fleasKath writes about Jackie, her terrier:
"Thought I must write to tell you. My little terrier started bringing in fleas in on her coat from out in the garden. I didn’t want to use chemicals on her. I wanted to use a natural repellent. Tried one or two well known makes but Denes Liquid Garlic spray and Garlic Tablets did the trick - no more fleas. I was over the moon to find something that worked at last."

Garlic and Greenleaf Play Their Part – 4th October 2007

Marion writes about her Miniature Pincher Zebbie:
"Zebbie is about 3 years old and has had a skin problem since he was about 12 months of age. Latterly this has affected the area around both his eyes. Treatment from our vet proved ineffective, eventually reaching the stage where investigations were being considered. This we declined preferring more natural approaches. We decided to put him on a totally natural diet avoiding both yeast and wheat, and on your suggestion, we dosed him with both your Garlic Tablets and Greenleaf Tablets.

"The difference has been astounding. He has regained his lost energy, his coat is now glossy and shiny and he has stopped rubbing his eyes and is now interacting with us once more. We would like to say a big thank you for your help!"

Duffy Moon Takes to the Air - 5th July 2007

Peter C from Sudbury continues his story:
"Duffy Moon continues to do well and is now making trial flights across the kitchen floor and developing a head for heights and even sitting on people's heads!  Today he discovered the dog's water bowl and had great fun hurling water all over the floor as he discovered drinking for himself. He has really done well on your dog food.

"We hope to release him into the wild shortly as soon as we are convinced he can fly properly, though whether he will ever leave us completely remains to be seen. We will probably put him into an aviary (our coal shed will be ideal) until such time as he can fly strongly.  He has been sitting on our heads, drinking my tea and stealing bits from my muesli bowl. It was getting a bit much at breakfast time!"

Something to Crow About – 21st June 2007

Duffy Moon the Crow raised on DenesPeter C from Sudbury writes:
"Dear Denes, as you will see from the photo, its not only dogs that do well on your products.  I rescued this young crow that had fallen out of the nest and was covered with fly eggs and just waiting to die.  However, 2 weeks later on a diet of rice and Denes, the crow (called Duffy Moon after a film in which a boy finds a magic raven, the catch phrase being "you can do it Duffy Moon!"), is 3 times its original size and hopping, jumping and wildly flapping its wings!  However our Collie Juno is not impressed that we keep taking her food tins away!

"I have raised two dogs on Denes. It is a brilliant product; our last border collie lived to seventeen.  On the few occasions when we have tried to give them a change and have switched to another product, the condition of their coats and general health goes down within a few days, so we always come back to Denes.  And "Duffy Moon" obviously agrees, so keep up the good work!"

A Solid Performance from Freddie - 26th April 2007

Karen from Chatteris in Cambridgeshire writes:
"Just a quick note to say how please I am with your OPTIONS Sensitive Digestion Dog food. My dog, Freddie, had Campylobacter when he was a puppy. Although he was treated for this, no food seemed to suit him as he always had soft motions. I can’t tell you how much food we wasted. Well now he is doing fine and he loves the food. Thank you very much!"

Healthy & Glossy on EPO - 29th March 2007

Evening PrimroseSent in by email from Shirley in Rainham, Kent:
"Toby is 6 years old and has had skin problems which led him to being on a massive dose of antibiotics. Although this has helped, he was still left with some dandruff-type spots in his hair. Since he has been on your Evening Primrose Oil Capsules, this has cleared up completely. His overall general condition has improved greatly; he is livelier, looks better, moves better and generally seems a much happier animal!"

A Soothing Solution? – 22nd March 2007

Pamela from Magheralin, Northern Ireland writes:
"I am writing to thank you so much for the prompt service that your company provides. Denes products are excellent. I’ve seen great success using Denes Skin Balm on all sorts of nasty wounds on cats and dogs."

Praise indeed - 1st February 2007

Sent in by email by Eve from New Ollerton Nr Newark:
"I have been browsing your site for a while now and I would like to take this opportunity just to congratulate you on how good your site is!"

Speedy, efficient, effective and oh yes-tasty too! - 25th January 2007

Jessica enjoying her Denes foodDoreen from Kings Norton writes:
"I would like to say a big thank you for your speedy delivery of my recent order.  I ordered the dog food yesterday 17.01.07 and the delivery arrived this morning 19.01.07.

"I would add my dogs, Jessica and Fay, both cross cairns have been so much healthier since they have been having your food.  They are aged 11 last December18 2006 but act like puppies especially Jessica who had always been fussy about her food, not any more, they know when it is feed time and they start to hover, and run like crazy to get their food, it really is a joy to see.

"Thank you once again."

Making a real difference - 18th January 2007

Sheena P from Cannock in Staffordshire writes about her 2 year old rescue English Setter, Willow:
"I have a rescue dog and she has very sensitive skin, probably as a result of untreated flea infestation prior to her rescue. About 2 months ago I switched to using your tinned food and wholegrain mixer. I've seen a marked improvement in both her skin and her general health and fitness. It's made a huge difference to her quality of life. Thank you for your superb products, which I am now recommending to my friends."
