dry dogfood

A lot of dogs do "well" on ProPlan, but they'll do even better on a higher quality food. ProPlan is packed full of fillers and unnecessary things your dog doesn't need.

Yeah, I've had them on "high quality" holistic foods before, we've done Wellness, Eagle, and California Natural in the past... They actually have better coats and energy levels on ProPlan, believe it or not .. But I suppliment them too, so that might have some influence on it.

We've only ever fed Bijou Nutro Max -- for her first year it was Nutro Puppy, but now she's on Nutro Max Adult. She likes it very much (okay, she'd probably eat rocks if we let her, lol!) and she's healthy, happy and verrrry energetic! Pretty coat, too! I have no plans on switching Every so often, I check labels and compare nutritient lists of various brands when I'm out shopping to ensure that Nutro is still our best choice -- there really are a number of high quality foods from which to select, and I'm open to change if Bijou would benefit. We're getting a new Mounds in our area next spring (they've finally broken ground, woo hoo!) which means another shopping source of quality foods at better prices. I'm excited about that!

We do feed Royal Canin Indoor to our cats, though -- they do very well on it. I started feeding Bonnie, our first cat, Nutro when we adopted her, but switched to Royal Canin when we got our pair of orange & whites after doing some reading/comparing cat foods.

Remember that there isn't a Petco or a Petsmart in Kelowna, so the prices of the foods might be different in the stores we have here. The discount stores here carry Kirkland and Solid Gold for really cheap, just because the bag has a hole in it. I put Visa on Kirkland puppy food when she needed to gain weight and I paid $20 for a 33 pound bag. That's so awesome that you're still moving to Kelowna, we will have to hang out and have lots of play dates with the pups -- it'll be so much fun!

By products aren't the only "bad" thing to look for in ingredients, though. Corn is a big ingredient used as a filler, so even if a bag contains no by-products at all it can still contain a lot of fillers, especially if corn or corn meal is listed as one of the first four ingredients.
