I feed mine Wellness which is $17 for a 6lb bag. She used to be on Diamond which was around $7 for a 20lb bag. She went through that bigger bag MUCH quicker than she has Wellness. That little 6 lb bag will last us MONTHS, whereas the diamond did not. Higher quality ingredients may cost more up front, but fill your dog up on less food - and therefore each bag will last you longer than a cheaper food. I've also noticed an extreme difference in her coat since switching her to a premium food, as well as an increase in energy.

To each his own, but you may find that you won't be spending as much as you think you will on a higher quality food simply because it will last you longer. Therefore, you'll save money in the long run.

Wasn't Pro Plan recalled this past summer??

I also choose to educate myself about the food I and my dog eat, instead of listening to what tv reporters tell me.
