There's absolutely nothing wrong with people feeding their dogs pedigree or purina. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion. I don't it's right at all to go pointing fingers at people saying "why would you wanna feed your dog something with corn & byproducts in it?" everyone is different and to be perfectly honest, i do know of people that have had their dogs live long healthy lives being on those foods.
I myself chose to buy a more expensive food. I don't have to, but I chose to because it's what the breeder originally had her on, but just seeing how some people on here argue like that is wrong. People are entitled to their own opinions and shouldn't be knocked for what they're feeding their dog or what kind of decisions they make for their dog. It's things like this that make me not want to be on this site anymore. |
I am so sorry you feel that way
I myself am not AT ALL intentionally trying to sound like a "know it all" - cause TRUST ME, I'm in no way shape or form a know it all. Actually, to tell ya the truth, I probably don't even know the
half of it!
LOL..
BUT, I think the reason this thread was so full of opinions is because the OP said (in the beginning) that the cheap grocery store brand dog foods were just as good as the higher end dog foods - and they're just not. Plain and simple. HOWEVER....You are absolutely 100% CORRECT when you say that we as pet owners can feed WHATEVER we want to our pets...we most certainly can. There is no law telling us what we can and cannot feed our pets - that is a decision that is up to us and us alone. I think it was just frustrating for people to "hear" someone say that Purina or Pedigree or whatever, was "just as good" as the higher quality foods that those of us are feeding our babies, and that we are just waisting our money buying those higher quality foods.
Of course she can feed whatever she wants - no one here can make anyone feed their babies anything they don't want to....that is totally up to the pet owner themselves. Everyone was just stating their opinions here as to what they thought about the different dog foods and obviously we all have very strong opinions on it
