I totally agree with Giselle and Sue and such ;0)

Just to give you a different perspective, critter crazy, I know plenty of people who thought their dogs were "thriving" on grocery store kibbles. Their dogs had flakey skin and fur, bad teeth, etc (from my perspective) BUT because that is what they had fed all of their other dogs, they assumed that was thriving. I personally think it's not wise to just put your dog on one food and keep them on that, because it seems like they're doing fine. Variety is great for dogs, just like for people (except of course those with certain allergies, who need to be careful about switches).

I really thought the kibble I was feeding Gonzo was great for him, when I was feeding Nutro. I switched to a food with less grain, and what I thought was just normal issues (potty issues, dry skin, some tartar) drastically improved! I've been feeding him 50-75% raw now, and I've seen huge changes, even though I was feeding him a kibble before (Evo) that a lot of people say is next best to raw. He has much more energy, stamina, better BM's, cleaner teeth, brighter eyes, better breath, etc! I think just because it seems like your dog is ok on his kibble, does not mean there isn't PLENTY of room for improvement. We should strive to give our pups the healthiest life possible, within our financial/time/etc limits... not just what seems "safe". That's what bothers me with the whole "Just keep your dog on it if he isn't dying, it's whatever is ok with them!" comment. You don't know how much a better food will improve his health unless you try it.
