| There are so many options. I feed mine Orijen. He loves it. There is a website that rates dog food. I'm sure one of the other members knows of it and can post a link.

| Ziva had a real hard time crunching dry food when she was little. I found Solid Gold Wee bits (pink shiny bag) for her. She liked it and it was ok on the ratings. She eats Taste of the Wild now because that's what the big dog eats... |

| Mine eat Nature's Variety. It's a good food, the kibble is small, and they like it. It's an all life stages food too. My dogs ate it since we got them at 12 weeks old. Never a problem. |

| I think dry food is good just because of their teeth. I use Natural Balance, but there are so many good foods out there and so many different opinions. lol

| For kibble, we are currently feeding Taste of the Wild Sierra Mountain. Levi has also eaten Orijen and Blue Buffalo with good results. You can get reviews of kibble at this website: Dog Food Analysis - Reviews of kibble

| Troy gets Blue Buffalo. I've fed Merricks Chicken soup and Pro Plan. Out of the three Troy likes the BB the best. I prefer dry kibble because of dental maintainence.And it helps keep a firmer stool.

Yorkie Talker | As for brands, I prefer Iams. Toby is currently eating Iams Smart Puppy for Small Breeds. I've had two previous dogs that lived to be 18, I've always blamed it on the food (Iams) lol. But I never give them any people food.
