I've also noticed that some other formulas still contain chicken meal like the Mini and X-Small ones, why did they decide that the Yorkie formula needed the change from chicken meal to by-products? Still don't get it...
The info they sent says it' s because "we are running out of chickens for human consumption", I'd gladly give up the chickens I'm supposed to eat so my Kenzie gets them, no need to question that.
We don't get that many options here when it comes to dog food, so RC was the best one but seeing this I'm considering to try Nature's Variety Instinct, will have to wait and see if we need to switch or not :/ |
For Dogs | Instinct Pet Food for Dogs and Cats There's still quite a few to choose from in that line. Kibble size, my little old guy needs the tiny kibble. Our young guy, 10 pounds, I saw him eat full size kibble at the rescue so, LOL, any size goes for our youngster! LOL
But yes, if you pay or paid for RCs yorkie or yorkie 28, you may as well get one of these "exotic" or "holistic" foods such as Nature's Variety Instinct. I think Fromm has one of these premium feeds at less than RC and great reviews. I just ordered a bag of Wellness Core Ocean from chewy.com for our 10 pound youngster.
Wellness CORE Grain-Free Ocean Formula If it gives him more energy, I'm in trouble though! LOL It was well under $3 a pound to my front door, should be here in a couple more days.
I liked the idea of a breed specific formula, but, then found that the strongest supporters of RC here at YT weren't using the breed specific formula. At least, that's what I understood from reading what they wrote in the 3 threads associated with this RC yorkie 28 formula change. So, breed specific formulas just aren't required and probably have more to do with marketing than anything else.
