I rotate these three brands as well as the different flavors (chicken, beef, lamb, etc.) for my dog. He can eat people food with no digestion issues or gas, and he loves it mixed with a small amount of people food.. |

Our 7 year old Cairn would never eat dry food unless mixed with something else until we found Earthborn Wild at Sparrs. I would say that it has improved his stool consistency but then I'd be accused of starting another dog poop thread!

A vote for Blue Buffalo
A couple of years ago, one of our dogs developed an allergy to the red dye present in some foods, and our vet recommended a brand they happened to carry. I spoke to a friend who is a vet in another state, and she recommended Blue Buffalo (yes she was familiar with our dogs). We weaned our dogs over to Blue Buffalo and use both the kibble and canned in combination.

we use Rachel Ray because Portia has a sensitive stomach.. and its a dog food for all stages of a dogs life .. also any profit made by this product goes to animal rescue..

Nature's Select
We use Nature's Select. We used to feed our dogs IAM's.... "
I would ask that you read the ingredients on the dog food labels. I was shocked at what I learned. Nature's Select is produced in the US and NEVER had a recall! It's delivered to your home. When we switched, we found our dogs had more energy and were just all around healthier. And, as I said..... we never worry about what's in the food.... it's always been safe for our dogs! Natur's Select is delivered to your home so you never have to go out looking for it!

Royal Canin but it ain't cheap!!!
Funny, as we have gotten older we have bought more expensive food for our dogs.... |

If you do some googling, there are a couple of sites that "grade" different dog food brands. We use Dick Van Patten's Natural Balance for our golden, but I am about to go experimenting again. wag.com carries many, many good brands, and they free-ship to your door in 2 days. You can click on the brands to see the ingredients list. I like that free shipping since we buy big, heavy bags for our 88-lb guy. And it is true that the quality of what goes in the front of the dog has a direct effect on the quality of what comes out the back. The less cheap filler, the smaller and firmer... Well, you get the idea. |
I'm a real fan of Nature's Variety Raw food. It comes in frozen medallions or patties and I use 1/2 a medallion and a scoop of Honest Kitchen dehydrated veggies with a handful of Raw boost kibble from Natures Variety. Over the years I have tried different good quality dog food but about 15 years ago I switched our dogs to raw food and haven't looked back. Their weight stays constant and their skin and coats stay healthy. It is as close to natural as I have seen with convenience. Better than mixing and cooking my own which I used to do.

I feed my dogs only raw{ Hare Today }from { Paws for a Moment} on 101
I mix with veggies or you can mix with dry, Origen. My dogs are family and I want to give them the best. Raw is the most healthy food for them. |
I tried most of the commercial brands mentioned, she won't go near them.
The only thing she will eat is Sojos and Iams Lamb & Rice. I really like the Sojos, but you have to think ahead. Does anyone know Gail with the doodle dog Becca? I heard she makes dog food. |
