| If you have a pet supplies plus near you they carry alot of the better (human grade) brands. I feed Crystal Royal Canin dry in the morning and Solid Gold turkey and fish evening. She has been on it about three weeks now and it's working great. I can get both and they do have Chicken Soup.

| Yes, I think specailty feed stores have the premium brands as well as the upper end pt stores. I can actually get the Natiural Balance raw food diet at my local Petcos but I am not sure if it available everywhere. |

| I went to Petco and bought Snoodles Royal Canin Mini Yorkie dry dog food! I really like the ingredients in it----no animal by-products for one and glucosimine and Hy something for the bones. It is really small pieces and she absolutely loves it. It is a little pricy---$8.50 for 3 #, but it lasts her about 3 months, so really isn't that bad. I was feeding Science Diet until I got on here . Never even checked the ingredients. Just thought my vet knew what was good. When I checked the ingredients, I was shocked! This is a wonderful forum, and very informative---Thank God! Good luck!, Pat |

| yorkie food I want to say The All Natural Kitchen carries that brand...not positive, though. I feed mine Royal Canin and they love it. We've tried every kind, including most all of the vet's formulas. PetsMart has Royal Canin. www.LeChicChien.com Le Chic Chien Canine Couture and Ready to Wear, Gifts for Animal Lovers |

You can always call their 800 # and see what areas do because almost every city has a Petsmart close by.

| I was having the same prolbem just a couple of days ago. If you go to their website www.naturapet.com they have a Store Locator that will tell you what stores in your area carry their products. I also read on their site that they prefer to support the smaller pet stores rather than the big chains. So there was only about 5 small pet stores here in Ottawa that actually carried their products! Hope that helps |

| Yorkie Food I did find some Chicken Soup at Pet Kingdom in Newton, and some Innova on 22nd St in West Des Moines. I think I'll try the Chicken Soup for 3 months and then the Innova for 3 months. That should be long enough for me to make a decision as to which one to use all the time. My babies are 2 years and 1 1/2 years old and have always been on Royal Caine. Thanks for all the help!!!! |
