I don't think it well help you.

I think the problem with smaller companies is that they just do not have as much money to put into QC. Obviously it looked like the opposite in 2007, but look at Merricks for instance. They have had enough recalls IMO... Evangers was in a bit of trouble with the FDA. NB was recalled in '07 with the other pet foods and I think it had something to do with their manufacturer not being truthful with them or something...
I'm just not a fan of any of it. I don't like by-products, ethoxyquin, BHA/BHT, etc., but I also don't like companies telling their customers that their food is "holistic" or whatever they are saying now. It's all marketing. And if the ingredients were really as good as they looked on the package, then they would be used for human food...

I'm a little surprised the doctor doesn't feed a home-cooked diet. I would dearly love to know which pet they do feed. Maybe that would help me make my mind up.  |
