| Not Enough Input to be Accurate! The poll that is shown only has 14 responders. That's not enough to get any kind of percentages. All results are skewered because one or two can make all the difference in the world. We used to study results of fitness tests all the time where I worked, and that is what we found to be the case. You need at least 50-100 before you can get any kind of meaningful percentages. |

YT 500 Club Member | It won't let me vote, either, but I feed Wellness Core (6*) and Wellness Super5 Small Breed (5*). I mix them together and Meg loves them both.

| A couple of days ago it said that I couldn't vote, but now I'm a donating member and it let me vote. I think that is what seems to be the problem for some of you. I primarily feed raw, but Jimi gets NV Instinct kibble as well.

| Dog Food Analysis grades the food according to the highest protein. I feed Natural Balance Sweet Potato & Venison which has 20% crude protein. I used to feed Evo Red Meats which has a high protein of 42%. Just because a food has lower protein doesn't mean it's a lower quality food. I chose (well, it's more like they chose)to go w/NB because it's grain free & has lower protein. As some have stated, some Yorkies do not do well on a high protein diet.

Artemis=5 stars=23% crude protein Acana Small Breed=4 stars=33% crude protein In this case, Artemis having better ingredients w/ less protein has a higher rating than Acana which has more protein. I love the way DFA knit picks all the ingredients and lets us know if there is enough meat in the food we feed, and for hidden fillers disguised by other names. Again, this is just my opinion but based on the statement above, it's not always true. But in the end, it's all up to what works for your pup and what you feel confident in feeding. I also only feed grainfree and Acana Grasslands (5 stars-33% protein) works great for US. Holiday Hugs- Snick & Viv
