Customer Testimonials

Mrs Di Turtle, Wiltshire (sent via our 'Contact Us' Page)

Thanks again. Mrs Tracey Moseley, cared for by OscarDirect, via email
'Taylor' Made Service
"Oscars, or more specifically, Claire Taylor (Local Nutritional Advisor, Manchester) representing Oscars, has been a godsend to me. As an animal lover, I probably have what some would consider to be too many pets. I am a sucker for an animal that needs a home! With a full time job and a household to run, it was difficult to manage shopping for the animals as well as all the other stuff and many is an occasion I would be running out to a well known brand of pet shop at the last minute to get food, hay etc etc. Claire and Oscars have changed that for me. No matter how late or strange the request, Claire has always delivered. Thanks to her, I am now also able to look after the wildlife in my garden as well as the pets!"
Beth Roe, Sale, Cheshire
OscarDirect Swift Service
"Just a thank you to Elaine (our OscarDirect Team Manager) for getting the food to me so quickly, as I was just out of hospital. Absolutely fantastic customer service, you are all a credit to the company. Happy Christmas to you all."
Mrs Cuthbert, Norwich, via email
Helpline Gets Rocky Fighting Fit
"Thought I'd share a pic of Rocky who has now really settled on his OSCAR food. As you can see he has grown rapidly since the last pic I posted. Merry Christmas to you all at OSCAR!"
Kirstie Hellings (via our Facebook Page)
(Kirstie contacted our Free Helpline because Rocky was playing a little rough with Ruby's [Cavalier KC] toys and not sharing nicely...)

More Praise on Facebook
"I have been using OSCARS for many years now. Kim [Stanier] (Nutritional Advisor, Birmingham) knocked on my door when my Suzie was 8 months old she wasn't well. She had all sorts of allergies which she was on medication for. She was losing her fur. Kim came round, played a food game with Sue and I bought the chicken and rice food."
"Suzies fur started to grow back without the medication, I would like to say!! So therefore it was the food Iwas previously feeding her that caused the fur loss. Suzie passed away 01/08/2011 at the age of 14. I still use OSCAR for our remaining dog Daisy; so I thank you Kim & Mick for your support, care and continuing service. :) "

Tom Goes Beyond the Call Of Duty
"I want to thank Tom (Cartmele, Nutritional Advior, Stoke) for his great service whilst Chester was with us. My daughter recently got a new puppy and chose a different food to Oscar and ended up with rashes on his belly. After some very expensive trips to the vets it was eventually suggested it could be an allergy and we immediately thought of ringing Tom. At 9:30 in the evening he took her call and spent 30 mins on the phone advising me. I just wanted to thank him, for all his time and efforts."
"His service is fantastic! He really goes beyond the call of duty; he really knows his job and has a brilliant and vast knowledge about nutrition."
Mrs Walker, Stoke on Trent
Happy Oscar Prize Winners
"Dear Sir / Madam, I recently won 6 months supply of Oscars dog food in a competition. Your representative, Gordon, has been in touch and we have decided on Advanced 'Pinnacle of Life' as my three sheep-dogs are 6yrs, 8rys and 151/2. They have been on Oscar's for over two weeks now and are enjoying it."
"Thank you for my prize and I have enclosed photo's of my three happy Collies (scanned images)."
Regards Maralyn Lacy, York
The Hills Are Alive!... Thanks to Oscar
"Ever since we put Zack Rogers onto Oscar food he has become a lot stronger and has far more stamina than he ever did before. And I thought he used to be irritating, he is much more so now. His mountain stamina has increased massively too (see photo of recent mountaineering trip to Scotland)."
"Discovered Oscar through your sponsorship of SARDA. Keep up the good work. "

Oscar Rescue Heidi!
"I thought you would like to know how well my young one year old rescue dog is doing on Oscars food. In June she came over from Ireland with an organisation that rescues young dogs to find her forever home over here."
"She had been abandoned and very badly abused and starved and although she had spent a month in a foster home in Ireland still looked like a skeleton with a coat thrown over it. On collecting her I straight away put her on Oscars puppy food for a couple of weeks and then onto Oscars Junior food which she is still on , and in the four months it is incredible how she has developed, put on weight and is gaining confidence every day, so much so that last month I entered her for the best rescue dog and she won first prize."
"Thank you Oscars, I have been using your product for many years and I cannot recommend it highly enough for both young and older dogs, my 11 year old labrador is still looking the picture of health on your Pinnacle Plus. I am attaching a photo of Heidi taken a month ago."
Mrs Valerie Mackintosh, Cambridge (cared for by OscarDirect)
Praise for OscarDirect Mail Order Team
"I'm more than happy to tell anybody who will listen how good the food and the service is from Oscars. I don't know about you all but I get so fed up with hearing how bad some companies treat people, it's a genuine pleasure to be treated well."
"I would also like to say that my dog Tasha, a lovely Heinz 57 mixed breed who, when we first got her had a very dodgy tummy, has been on Oscars Ultracare for most of her life now (she's 8 and a half), and I wouldn't swap her to anything else. She loves the food and always has a lovely glossy coat and shiny bright eyes. "
"The staff who ring me to take my order are always really helpful, and these days it's rare to find companies who actually care about their customers, but Oscars definately do! I can't praise them or their foods highly enough - keep up the good work!"
Mrs Cooke, Kettering (cared for by OscarDirect)

Thanks again for the great service - I attribute much of Milly's health to the excellent food that is Oscars, thats for sure and very glad the kids signed us up at a stall for a 'visit' when she was young when they bought her a toy !!!Kind Regards Jane Harris , Berkshire (cared for by Phil and Paula Ray Wokingham, Berkshire
Helpline is so Helpful
"I would like to pass many thanks onto Rachael for helping me with a problem my dog had. I am so pleased with her advice and I will recommend Oscar Pet Foods and the free helpline service to all my friends who have pets. I'm over the moon!"
Mr Till, Staffordshire (cared for by Jenny and Andrew Little Staffordshire)
More precision+ Praise
"My older dog has had major problems with bloating and very bad diarrhoea. This food [precision+] has caused her no problems after trying so many ways of feeding her. At long last she is maintaining weight and seems so much more comfortable. Thank you and Claire for this."
Susan Heyes, Manchester (Cared for by Claire Taylor, Local Nutritional Advisor, Manchester)
12 years with OSCAR
"I've fed Oscars for about 12 years now but a few years ago due to financial difficulties I decided to change to a cheaper brand & noticed a difference in my dogs immediately. I lost my oldest dog Sam after a very short illness & almost a year to the day I lost his partner in crime Ella again after a short illness. She had ...an ultrasound which revealed a massive tumour on her spleen which had attached to her bowel."
"I read an article about the truth behind the labels on our dog food & was shocked & disgusted at what is actually in some food but because of clever wording we would never know. I immediately changed back to Oscars."
"I now have a white Staffie who I rescued when he was 2. He was a bag of bones when I got him & had cuts all over him & was generally nervous. He was 4 yesterday & is a handsome big boy now. What a difference some TLC & decent food can make. Lets face it they don't ask for more than that but give us so much more back x".

SARDA Supported and Fed By OSCARS
"Dear Oscars, Bracken is a 7 year old male border collie; he is a fully graded Search & Rescue dog for SARDA England he works very hard when out searching or training in the mountains. We have tried many dog food brands over past 7 years, he used to be such a fussy eater his joints were very stiff on an evening and he could never hold any weight.Since we started feeding Bracken on Oscars 12 months ago, his joints are more supple and he licks his bowl clean after every meal. He holds a steady weight he has lots more energy and his coat has never been better, full of shine and softness.
Your sales representative is very knowledgeable and supportive he provides an excellent service. I have even begun to feed my new puppy on OSCARS as I am so impressed at the quality of your dog food.
I can honestly say that OSCAR Pet food has to be one of the best dog foods on the market, thank you for sponsoring Bracken over the past 12 months".
Lee Ferry, Search and Rescue Dogs Association England (SARDA), Stanley, Co Durham.
Taste the Difference
I wish I'd known about Oscar years ago - I really can't believe the difference!
Anna Harding, Cumbria.
CRUFTS Winner
"I'm looked after by David Bass (Nutritional Advisor) from Congleton and as one of his customers, I have a winning dog from last years Crufts. Megan, my Border Collie, ran with me in the Canix event - gaining us third place in my age group (over 50's). This event was a mile run from the main arena, round the lake at the NEC and finishing at the "beach" by the
lake. Megan and I completed the run in 7 minutes 21 seconds. Megan has been reared on Oscar dog food and at the time of the event, she was 2 years old. All my 5 dogs are fed on Oscar dog food, their ages ranging from 2 to 12 years. They are all very active dogs and this year Kya, my 9 year old German Shepherd will be running at Crufts. I am completely satisfied with Oscar's
dog food and, as an athlete myself (I run marathons) I appreciate that correct feeding gets results. Oscars certainly works for my active dogs!"
Dianne Lapworth, Congleton.
OSCAR Means Prizes
“Fun dog shows and agility have always given me a great reward and an interesting life for my Border Collies, Rahann, Nazann and Thaitann - each holders of a ‘Best in Breed’ title. I’m a customer to Steve and Miriam McGarry (Nutritional Advisors, Barrow) and have nothing but praise for appreciating the value of their help in feeding my dogs OSCAR Advanced Fish and Potato. Perfect weights, glossy coats and bright eyes just keep the rosettes coming. Nazann recently achieved a 1st in Mid Limit and 2nd in Graduate class at a Blackpool show and, now with four more shows lined up for the next two months I feel confident of success. I’ve been a long-time OSCAR customer, long enough to prove that I’m feeding the best for my dogs. Having lost touch with OSCAR for a short while and to experience a difference their condition; I was so relieved to come back to good quality food and a spot-on service.”
Ann Geldert, Dalton in Furness
OSCARS Helps Diabetic Dog
"I cannot thank Jill and Steve enough for everything they’ve done to help us with our Dog Tico’s diet since we found out he was diabetic back in March 2009. Nothing is too much trouble, whether it’s speaking to the nutritionalist, or getting a last minute order to us. All part of the service they might think – However today, they went much further than that. As the country grinds to a halt with all the snow. This afternoon our doorbell rings and there’s a very wrapped up gentleman stood there with Tico’s food!! Laughable that Asda cancel all their grocery deliveries, and we live just 3 streets away from them. Yet Steve and his Son can get from Chippenham to ensure that all the animals have enough to eat.. If there’s some sort of
beyond customer service award – then without a doubt it should be awarded to the Tubbs! Thank you very much."
Jayne Smith, Swindon.

Time to care
What a treat to find a pet food company that offers so much time to making sure that my new Cocker Spaniel would be benefiting from a healthy diet. Last year I said goodbye to my Golden Retriever, he was overweight at fourteen years of age and somehow I felt that his diet contributed towards his problems all because I just gave him what I thought he liked.
Meeting OSCAR and Tom Cartmale at the Stafford County Show introduced me to a whole new concept on how to feed my dog. He gave me so much of his time, taking me through the complete range of foods and the advantages of feeding OSCAR. Tom’s knowledge offered me confidence and support, ensuring that this time my dog started life on a healthy complete food. I want to say a big thank you to Tom for an excellent friendly door-to-door service, which I will highly recommend.”
Dave Booth, Stafford
A Very Good Start
My goodness, I can’t believe how many years I’ve known OSCAR. I was introduced to David and Dawn Jarvis at least ten years ago when Pippa, my tricolour Cocker Spaniel, had health issues, which stopped her from breeding. My vet recommended a better quality food and OSCAR came to the rescue. Over the years I’ve added Tilly, a blue roan who has produced 3 litters totalling 21 puppies and Honey, an orange roan, who, after having had 5 pups in her first litter, is just about to start again.
All of my dogs have been brought up on OSCAR Ultracare; I have no worries about quality or additives, or helping them to maintain good health and regular weight. David and Dawn never let me run out of food and they keep me supplied with puppy buckets to pass on to new owners. It’s so important that my puppies have a good start in life and there is no doubt that OSCAR is the best for food and service. Thank you David and Dawn.”
