What food do/did you feed your puppy?

We feed Lily Pro Plan Small Breed, and she does VERY well on it. She has no gas or anything, and it works great for her!(although I heard other people say they dont like it too much...)

It might not be the best food, but as long as Lily is doing great on it - there is no reason why you shouldnt feed it. Dont feel guilty about it, Lily looks very healthy and all of your love is what makes her happy - not her food.

People should only feed what they can afford - as long as your pet is healthy and enjoys the food, I wouldn't change a thing. I know I have made alot of people change their foods - not realizing that they wont be able to afford other things because of it. I like to buy my groceries first - then cats food, litter and such - then my rent and bills. Once all of that is dealt with, see how much money you have left over that could possibly go towards a better food.

But dogs are not supposed to get grapes

LOL! Yes, but they can have Grape Seed oil! It is used in ALOT of raw diets to kill bacteria in the dogs body and bacteria found on meat. It is one of the finest and most potent antioxidants known today.

Forgot to add that MANY dog foods have grape seed oil in them (particularly the super premium foods). It is a better antioxidant than Vitamin C and E. I wouldn't feed raw without putting some grape seed oil in it.
