So i'm wondering why so many people use it? Is it the brand that your breeder used and you just kept it going? the packaging? My dog was on this from the breeder, but i quickly switched him to Wellness. What have been your experiences? |
Some people don't think beet pulp is bad, some dogs have no problem with corn, and it contains 28% protein, which isn't low. I don't actually care for dogfoodanalysis, it's only has one person review the food, and the person has had no training in nutrition, so I take what they say with a grain of salt. One of the main reasons I like it is that it's a large company, and you will hear about recalls very fast, if any dogs get sick, you will hear about it, because even if something only effects one percent of the dogs, that's still a lot of dogs. I also like a dog food that has breed specific ingredients, I do believe that different breeds benefit from different diets. Joey really loves it, and I had a hard time getting him to eat other foods, I also had some allergy problems with other foods. He's doing great, he never vomits or has diarrhea, no itching, or gas, and his hair is shinny, his teeth are good. The food stays fresh in the bag too, if you expel air and put a big clip on it, it's a great heavy duty package. I know I'm paying more for the package, but keeping it fresh is important to me. I think I'm getting what I pay for.
