Well, my opinion is that I'm grateful shelter dogs are fed, period. I'd rather have them eat SD, Alpo, Biljac, Raw, homecooked, Orijen or WHATEV instead of being loose and eating dirt or rotten refuse.
Regarding the endless debates about food (always interesting and passionate) - these debates will go on forever, which is not a bad thing imo. I hope people will make an effort to be kind though and/or respectful.
At the end of the day, we all have to feed what 1) works and 2) we believe in -- whatever that means for the individual.
As many of you know, I feed raw and have for years - but if my dogs had to be on SD for some reason and it worked for them - you can be darn sure I'd feed it! SD WORKS beautifully for some dogs (just like how any other type/kind of food works for some dogs). What if no other food but SD worked for a certain dog? Gosh, more power to feeding that kiddo the food that works for them.
Lots of people here don't like raw here, and it's fine to voice that opinion - but it sure means a lot when it's voiced respectfully...just as it means a lot to those who feed SD when someone posts their opposing opinion respectfully.
Debates/discussions are good...but I hate to see these food debates go downhill bc of the manner in which things are said.
