| I would do a search bc I know there are quite a few threads on this already. Also do a search on the breeder section. I think a lot of people use Nitro bc it is all natural. Currently I use Purina Pro Plan bc the breeders where I got my Yorkies from used it. I know a lot of people are against it bc it has corn in it and dogs can have allergies to the corn, but mine have never had any problems. I guess I grew up on a farm and the dogs there were always eating raw sweet corn bc they like the milk in it an none of them ever had any problems. Anyway you are going to want to find a food that doesn't have animal by products in it or corn (I know Pro-Plan has both). Good luck with your search.

| I just started Ferdinand on the lamb Azmira. It's a hollistic all natural food. When they're puppies, you're supposed to add protein (like cottage cheese on the top). I tried to start him on the food on HealthyPets.net or whatever that site is that someone recommended on here (with the video about how bad dog food is), but it made my pup REALLY sick. Anyway, he loves the Azmira... it's made by Newman's I believe.

| I use Canidae and mine like it fine. It has no byproducts or corn. I use both the dry and the moist. My mom gives her puppy Canidae dry and Nutro moist because the lady at the store told her it has all of the stuff that the missing link has in so she does not have to add it to his food anymore.

| This is my favorite site. Check it out! http://www.dogfoodanalysis.com/dog_food_reviews/ I currently feed Evanger Chicken Drummetts Wet and Artemis Small Breed dry. I used to feed Merrick's but she got sick of it! She's picky like her mommy!! Baby will not eat any wet food that looks like Alpo (all mushed up). She will only eat real chicken wings.

| Kacee loves, loves, loves Natural Balance Ultra Premium. Others that I have in my home right now are Chicken Soup, Canidae, and Wellness. I have more Natural Balance on the way to me right now, because she likes it sooooo much. The Wellness bites are too big for her. She will eat anything else, but leave that, so we don't feed her that.
