I just through with this topic with a girlfriend of mine the other day.
I've never been impressed with Solid Gold products. Their marketing teams are geniuses and I used to feed their products for four years and then it's like other dog food companies cropped up and older ones started getting with the program and bettering their foods, leaving Solid Gold in the dust.
Artemis IS a good product, and I've had the same palatibility issue with my Yorkies and a Staffordshire Terrier that you have now.
I switched all of my dogs (all competition dogs except one retired Yorkie) over to:
Champion Petfoods | ACANA | Our Products
Good luck with the great food debate!
