Their favorite canned variety seems to be "Smothered Comfort"...their food bowls sit near the table where I make bows, and it has reminded me to get up and make myself some lunch at times...some of this food smells REALLY good! I love the service, my order had a mess up in it once or twice, and they send replacement cans/or the correct treat IMMEDIATELY. Plus the shipping is free if you order more than $25... It couldn't be easier to feed your babies quality food! | |

| Blue baffalo Dry food, Blue Buffalo, great reviews and mixed with Canidae wet food. I will soon just give him the dry food so his teeth are healthy and breath is fresh. |

| I recently tried to work in some raw food - lucy got sick from it - no more of that for my two babies. I thought I researched enough, but I found out more info after the fact. Make sure you are really comfortable with your findings. Google is a great search site.

| My two just switched to Natural Balance and they are LOVING it!! Normally they just eat enough to get by and I don't have to watch how much they are eating but now they both sit by the bowl and clean it out!!!!

| I feed Brownee the Eagle Pack Holistic Select canned and dry food (chicken flavor). He loves it! I was previously feeding him the Eukanuba yorkshire terrier dry food, but come to find out that stuff is just garbage for dogs! I will never buy anything but natural/holistic food now. |

| I use Canidae all life stages kibble for the masses and free-feed them. Plus !of course! their treats. But, just in case anyone is having a similar problem... I have a 15 yr old Sheltie that stopped eating and started to lose weight. (Lots of dental work in his life!) I tried everything to get him to eat - even that Ceasars crap - to no avail. I was cooking for him and freezing it in small batches which did the trick, but since I rarely cook and I'm sometimes traveling, I got caught short a couple of times. Recently they started carrying a brand at my grocery store called Fresh Pet Select. It is in a refrigerated case by the regular dog food and seems to be pretty balanced. So far he's been liking it and it's soft so he's able to chew it. Even the treats! It's been a lifesaver. I've been keeping back up in the fridge in the basement, but it's good to know that I can just run to the store if I'm in a pinch. Freshpet Select - Natural Dog Food
