There have been several threads here about various food. This is one of the most recent...Dry Food (http://www.petoftheday.com/talk/showthread.php?threadid=24623&highlight=Dry+Dog+Food) If you do a search I'm sure you can find some more of them!

Kai's been through a few foods. His breeder gave him eukanuba maintanence w/a very small amount of kibbles and bits. When I realized that mainanence was an adult formula, I immediately went to buy eukanuba small breed formula. My mom and I were debating over small breed or medium...we decided medium. So..he went to eukanuba puppy medium breed...now he's having mainly the eukanuba..but ocassionally gets some raw food that I bought..to see if he liked it. And also, I try to add something once in a while. He's a picky eater, so I tend to put carrots that have been in the blender...some wet dog food..kibbles and bits...even a bit of gravy once in a while. I also just bought him a trial size of wellness super5mix...he likes it..but isn't crazy about it. Once he's done eukanuba, he'll be fed only the raw diet.

In my opinion, these are some of the best foods out there! I will not feed or buy Iam's/Eukanuba products because of the horrible chemical animal testing they do, and their iam's food are not all that great, you pay way to much for both foods, and there are many other foods better out there then both.

Foods:
Artemis
Azmira
Canidae
Chicken Soup for the Dog Lovers Soul
Evolve
Breeders Choice Health Food
Holistic Blend
Natural Balance
Natures Variety
Pinnacle
Royal Canin
Sensible Choice
Solid Gold
Show Bound
TimberWolf Organics
Wellness
Wysong

My dog eates Dog Chow...he's very picky and doesn't really like high quality foods, except Authority. I'll probably switch him to that as soon as his bag of food runs out...

The Cat Factory: Isn't that just a pain??
My last foster, not only was he picky, but also had food allergies. To what, I'm not totally sure. I tried other foods in various formula's but they never went over well.

But the only one that didn't make him throw up was Old Roy Lamb and Rice, isn't that just a kick in the pants? :) ;)

I have never heard of them doing horrible testing/treatment to animals, do you have a website/info on this so I can read this? If this is the case, I'm going to switch foods for sure.

Thanks,

our small dogs eat cooked beef, chicken minch with vegie's n rice/ or pasta, and my dog (supermarket brand) dry dog food

clover eats anything but her diet is a farrels or box 2x4 biscuit in the morning and tinned pedigree food in the evening, or a kong filled with purina proplan adult / or puppy food in the morning instead of the biscuit because the biscuits seem to be wearing her teeth down:(

all get good'Os (moist meaty rings) for training and treats and pedigree denta bone, raw hide's , marrow bone's etc

and i have just cooked up some chicken liver to try clover on for obedience training (more obedience bribury):D

well...kai's been on a the barf diet for almost a week now..I thought I'd post here since it's a food's thread. He's doing very well on it. I think I just might stick to this diet. I've taught him to stay in his crate while eating so bacteria around the house isn't an issue. He's had beef, chicken, buffalo, some sardines (for omega 3 or..is it 9? oils...), a few eggs, some liver, raw chicken bones and some veggies...boy..he loves his diet.

Roxy and Dusty eat Costco Lamb and Rice. Ron and Raven eat Costco kitty food. Teddy eats Nutro for puppies. The dogs get people leftovers (if it's something ok for dogs). Roxy and Dusty also get apples as a treat once a day.

My dogs will eat any food you put infront of them. But we have to get the low fat kind because my one dog is overweight, because he used to get tablescraps before his brother came around.
