I have asked many vets and even know a couple of breeders who say that all of the "fancy" dog food stuff is marketing, to get you to buy their food regardless of what it is. The people who make that dog food list ARE dog food people. My vet does not recommend ANY dog food for that reason...
WOW, I cant believe I said some controversial things here, I swore I never would.... Sorry but I just had to....

How can you tell from just looking at your dog whether they are healthy or not?
And let's test your theory. I feed Chicken Soup for the Puppy Lovers' Soul and Canidae All Life Stages. Can you find anything wrong with those foods?
I disagree that it is all about marketing. Most of the foods I listed on the poll are marketed very little and some are not marketed AT ALL. I had never even HEARD of these foods before YorkieTalk. I thought that ProPlan was the absolute BEST food on the market until I started doing some research. The foods that do the MOST marketing that I have seen are Science Diet and Pro Plan, which a TON of vets recommend. There are so many better choices out there than these foods, which are the foods that do the most marketing. Thus, I completely disagree that it is all about marketing.
