| Sooo...what is everyone feeding them now??? With all the recent problems with foods (dry, canned, etc).....what is everyone now feeding their furbabies??? I am so upset trying to figure out what is a good source of food - other then making our own.....are there recipes for this and would they get all the nutrients they need from that? Would they get all the nutrients if we just did boiled chicken, rice, carrots, cheese, etc??? ((((AURGH))))) Also, at one time, someone sent me information on food that you can order - you had to order from a consultant - that was fresh baked.....I can't remember the name of it....but it was shipped to your door within a few days of ordering because it was made fresh. Does anyone know this company and is it worth it?? Please sure!!!

| I was wondering the same thing. We use Blue Buffalo, which is supposed to be real good. Then again, Nutro was supposed to be real good too. I'm confused. I barely have time to cook for myself, much less cook for my dog. |

| Natural Balance Organic and Canidae. Let's hope there are no more contaminated foods out there. |

| Right now mine are eating Nature's Variety Raw Frozen. I am also going to try to get some of this in place of the NV: http://www.stellaandchewys.com/the_story.html ...they also get a few pieces of kibble a day (no one really eats many of it - maybe 2 pieces hahahaha - Canidae Platnium) |

| I have been feeding Innova and Canidae dry for the dogs and Chicken Soup for the cat. Merricks wet has been wonderful for both the dogs and the cat. All of these use only human grade ingrediants with no by products, corn or wheat or fillers. The Merricks wet is just pure food! We have been fortunate so far with these. Ellie |

| Thanks everyone....I haven't even heard of some of these...like Butchers.... We are still feeding the Nutro Natural Choice For Sensitive Stomaches - Lamb and Rice (dry, small kibble) because right now, that is the only thing that picky eater Mojo will eat. BUT, in the back of my mind....I have that sliver of doubt/worry about feeding it to him since all the wet food recalls.....aurgh!

| I've heard good things about Merrick, but do you have to buy that online? Is it carried in stores and were they (wet food) not listed in the food recall?

| Gracie is now eating Merrick's and occasionally some ProPlan. I find Merrick's in my local Mom and Pop stores, not at the big chain stores.

| You can buy it in pet stores. I just bought some yesterday to try. Go to their website and do a store search. Put in your zip code and it will give you stores near you!!

| try Chicken Soup for dogs I feed my little one Chicken Soup for the last 2 years (Puppy food first and then we switched to the Adult formula). It is NOT affected by the recall. Our little girl loves this food. I recommend it to everyone. http://www.chickensoupforthepetloverssoul.com/ |
