I sometimes have food left over for various reasons...kibble too big, shaped odd, dog refused to eat, upset the tummy of my girl with sensitive stomach...various reasons other than I just didn't like the food. Many times it was because my picky eaters didn't like the way the food was put into the kibble. We experimented a lot with kibble shapes around here before finding one JoJo would readily accept, which meant a lot of food left over. I buy my food a private shops and have it special ordered, so an exchange isn't possible. Our shelters work on a very limited budget and since I feed high quality food, anything is better than what those dogs generally get, whether JoJo and Biskie rejected it or not. I would like to see all dogs, including shelter dogs, being fed what I feed or what a lot of other members feed, a high quality, by-product free food, but financially that is just not possible. SO, IMHO, any little bit helps. I am sorry your shelters are not accepting of open bags.
