Pet owners submitted a picture of their dog on social media to be in with the chance of their local trade store receiving £500 towards its 2021 Christmas party.
The winning image of Liz’s two dogs, Binky and Chilli, showcases their glossy and sleek coats in a natural outdoor setting – a benefit that Liz attributes to their raw diet along with shiny teeth, better digestion and bright eyes.
She said: “I really enjoy shopping at Choice Pet Supplies when buying pet food for my two dogs. The staff are amazingly helpful and would do anything to assist their customers.

"We currently have seven Natures Menu freezers in our store, stocking their full frozen range, and the customers love it all! We are incredibly grateful that Liz took the time to enter the photo competition and purchase from our store; it shows us that what we do really matters.”
