Elphaba wouldn't eat the mix of like 5 foods the breeder gave me, but she LOVES Royal Canin Indoor Puppy.

I feed mine RC, and they love it. They are both very happy and healthy. Plus their coats look wonderful.

Sargie came with a bag of Eukanuba Small Breed Puppy kibble and two cans of the Eukanuba wet puppy food. He would never eat the latter - not a bite. He ate the kibble, but never seemed to really like it - but he got used to it and he did fine on it. Because he was approaching "adulthood" I started looking at adult foods and presumed I would use the Eukanuba Yorkshire. Then I saw Royal Canin Yorkshire 28 I had never heard of it. I bought a small bag and am gradually mixing it in, and Sargie, while not exactly going for it as he would a treat, eats around the Eukanuba (no matter little RC kibble is mixed in) and has pretty much come down to refusing the eat the Eukanuba altogether. I have read many mixed reviews on it, but as he doesn't seem to have had any reactions, if he does well, I will probably continue to use it - although it is very pricey.

Kujo was eating Iams and his coat was dry and he was always scratching, and he would threw up a lot. But now he eats RC and his coat is beautiful and he never throws up.

On royal canin Gracie had a lot of diarrhea, but Katie did fine on rc. Because of Gracie, I switched to Solid Gold wee bits, they both love it and are doing great on it.

I used to feed RC, I have switched several times with my babies. I was always trying to find the right food since Kylie has allergy problems. We tried The Honest Kitchen, Embark formula that I would mix with boiled chicken, but that got to be very expensive. Then I swithced to Canidae dry kibble, which they liked, but at the Houston Dog Show, they talked me into feeding Nature's Variety raw diet. They also have a kibble that is grain free. My babies are on a rotation with the Nature's Variety raw diet and dry kibble; it's great and they love it.

I also spoke with the rep from Solid Gold, their dry kibble Wee Bits is also good. She also told me that Canidae still uses sunflower oil which studies have shown to cause cancer in dogs.
