It's rarely a good idea to combine foods from different manufacturers. Quality pet foods are formulated to be "balanced" and combining foods that aren't formulated to be mixed and fed together can change the balance of nutrients.
Life's Abundance has to be ordered, but that is a good thing. Commercial pet food manufacturers cook in huge batches to fill stores and warehouses around the country, subsequently the industry average from time of manufacture until it is purchased off the shelf is about 18 months. During that time the food sits in warehouses and trailers that aren't climate controlled.
Life's Abundance is cooked frequently, in small batches, and shipped direct to you so it is, on average, 2 to 4 weeks old and never more than 6 weeks. This method of distribution allows you to buy a fresher food. It is also guaranteed, if your dog doesn't like it you get your money back. |
