Puppy food

Can anyone advise me if they have tried their puppies or dogs with James Wellbeloved dried food
I'm just a bit concerned as I've tried my puppy on various food, dry, wet, different brands etc and he is not at all interested. There are only a few places you can get the JW and before I order on line, just thought I'd ask for opinions.
Puppies are supposed to eat 3 meals a day but since he was around 14 weeks old, he went to two and is now quite happy to just have one meal a day.
He seems happy and plays hard so I'm not that concerned but would like to actually get a food he likes. I know when we went to the vet for his jabs, she gave him a handful of the dried variety and he ate the lot.
Thanks

James wellbeloved is or was made by golden acre pet foods who make good quality food for the likes of Burns,Arden grange,and most pet shop own brands.But James well beloved has been took over by mars and will probably go downhill and be switched to a different maker, personally i would go for Orijen quality food from a private manufacturer.

Ours (before allergies took over) loved James Well beloved foods they do some nice treat type things too. Personally I would pick a good food (and Jwb is one) and try and stick to it, perhaps add some wet food to make it more palatable. We add fruit/veg/meat/fish/ and a tablespoon of tinned food to ours so they don't get bored.

This is the only food my 2 poodles clear their dishes with! Have tried fish + rice, turkey, duck and lamb, all of which they love. They sell it in Pets at Home stores

Hi everyone,
thanks for your replies.
I went and bought JWB today for my puppy and he seems to like it. I bought the lamb & rice plus the turkey and rice.
I also gave him some chicken with the JWB tonight and he cleared the plate. Hasn't done that for a few weeks.
I intend to mix some wet food with it so he won't get bored.
I googled the name on the web after I wrote my request on here last night and was impressed with what a lot of other owners said especially about the skin irritations being cured with this food. My little fella is always scratching and biting and someone did say it can be caused by their food which has lots of addatives in.
It cost a hell of a lot more than normal dry food but if he likes it and eats it. it's worth it.
Thanks again for your replies.

Thought I would give you all an update of the change of puppies food.
I'm really impressed, he has eaten every meal I have put in front of him since I started him on JWB.
Another thing I've noticed is he doesnt scratch a lot now. Before he was always scratching and biting him self but he was totally clear of fleas which puzzled me.
This food he was having must have caused him some kind of alergy.
I'm really pleased I made the right decision.
