| Dick Van Patten's Natural Balance Ultra Premium I know I should post this in the health and diet section, but I feel more of you would answer here. Do any of you guys feed your babies that? If so, what do you think of it? I just bought a 12.5 lbs bag of that today, but haven't fed them it yet. My babies are super picky. They seem to like RC Yorkshire28. I think RC makes them dehydrated. I saw Natural Balance had the highest food grading http://yorkietalk.com/forums/showthr...ght=food+grade so I decided to buy it.

| I don't remember which I picked up, but Brody seems to like it. We were using Canidae, but it was like pulling teeth to get him to eat it. Strange he seems to like it as a "cookie", but not as his meal. /boggle I read here that Natural Balance was a good brand and available at a store near by. Couldn't beat picking it up for $5/small bag. Figured if he didn't like it, I wasn't out too much. I mixed it with his Canidae. He picked out the Natural Balance and left the other stuff scattered on the floor. LMAO It is bigger in size (and thin) than the Canidae. That was a little shock. I was used to little kibbles. But Brody doesn't seem to have any trouble with it. Time will tell if he continues to like it.

Donating YT 1000 Club Member | I had gotten a sample of the Natural Balance at a Pet Fair. My gobbled it down. So now that my supply of RC Yorkie 28 is ready to be replenished I went to Petco and bought a 5 lb. bag of NB. Again my enjoyed the small amount I introduced to them today. I am gradually going to work this in their diet and switch over to NB. I am confident that it is a a good quality food.

| Max says go for it!!! Max has been on NB for about 4 months now and he loves it. I didn't even have to do a transition between food. From day 1 that I mixed NB with his other food he ate all of the NB kibble and left the other one and didn't want to eat it. He goes crazy for it every morning and now they have the small bites which is a smaller kibble of the same stuff. Oh Max also says to get your puppy their treats they are all natural and good. He loves the Turkey, oatmeal, and cranberry treats biscuits.

| Hmmm... I'm starting to have second thoughts about this brand. I'm already feeding this to my babies. They seem to enjoy it. My girl poops A LOT now. I looked up reviews on it and a lot of bad rating on it. This company was recalled???? http://www.rateitall.com/i-27904-dic...l-balance.aspx what should I be feeding them then? My girls are pretty picky when it comes to food. I always feed them the best, but then they get bored of it. I would like to feed them Wellness, Canidae, and etc., but I can't find those brands anywhere. I guess I have to look at them little, local pet stores.

| I feed Natural Balance Duck & Potato and my guys think they are eating pure gold! They LOVE it! Not to mention it's made for allergy sufferers and it has done wonders for their skin and coat. I have switched from it trying other foods and have always gone back. I don't think I'll ever switch again!
