Ello everyone. I have been feeding my little one, IAMS smart puppy for small and toy breed because that is what the breeder was feeding him. I have to admit that I hate that food. When I took her advice, I had never really had to buy dog food before and was going in like a deer in headlights. Now that I know what to look for I realized how really crappy that food is.

Here are the first 5 ingredients or so..... Chicken, corn meal, Chicken by-product meal, ground whole grain sorghum, chicken fat, dried beet pulp, chicken flavor......... Okay maybe more than the first 5 but by now you get the idea that right off the bat it has some awful ingredients.

Now that the bag is almost gone we are gradually changing food. I have done a ton of research and the best I can find that is sold in my area is Call of the Wild roasted duck. It is a grain free diet and doesn't have any by-products. I must have read every single bag in both stores and I am sure the employees hate me since I had so many questions. The first time I put a small amount of the new food in, he went right for the bowl. He ate those pieces first and then the old food. We haven't had any problems with loose stools or an upset stomach. I hope this helps anyone looking into food. I also know that other people have recommended Call of the Wild and i have heard Buffalo is good but do not know from personal experience.
