| Diamond dog food We are in the process of switching Krissy to Chicken Soup from Royal Canine. The store I thought carried it by my house doesn't anymore and the other only carries a 35lb bag. The guy offered me some samples of Diamond, which he says is made by the same company as Chicken Soup. I have never heard of it. Any opinions. Here is ingredient list: Calorie Content: 3,995 kcal/kg (419 kcal/cup) Calculated Metabolizable Energy. Ingredients: Chicken, chicken meal, cracked pearled barley, chicken fat (preserved with mixed tocopherols), egg product, whole grain brown rice, beet pulp, fish meal, flaxseed, natural chicken flavor, salmon oil (a source of DHA), potassium chloride, salt, choline chloride, yucca schidigera extract, vitamin E supplement, iron proteinate, zinc proteinate, copper proteinate, ferrous sulfate, zinc sulfate, copper sulfate, potassium iodide, thiamine mononitrate, manganese proteinate, manganous oxide, ascorbic acid, vitamin A supplement, biotin, calcium pantothenate, manganese sulfate, sodium selenite, pyridoxine hydrochloride (vitamin B6), vitamin B12 supplement, riboflavin, vitamin D supplement, folic acid.

YT 2000 Club Member | the ingredient list doesnt look bad, but Im not an expert . I also feed a diamond made product, Taste of the wild, many folks on this board frown upon using diamond products because of the recall they had in 2006, however now a days there hasnt been too many dog food companies out there that havent had a recall. I havent had any issues with the food Im using, its grain free and my dogs are doing well on it. Have you tried doing a search online for more info?

| I had my golden retriever on it before all the pet food recalls started in 2006. I only fed her one bag, but by the end of the bag she had gained some serious weight. It is fairly high in fat for a kibble. I don't know how good the quality control is for that food.
