    Chicken Soup for the Dog Lovers' Soul dry kibble. I add warm water, it makes a gravy.


    For Sugar, Lacey and Marlin, I alternate, one night I add canned pumpkin, the next I add yogurt.


    Ozzy has 3 tablespoons of canned Merrick Turducken added to the kibble each night.

    I feed my dogs Canidae, and I'm aware of the outsourcing to Diamond and recent formula changes, but to be honest... with the price for a GOOD food nowdays its so hard to find one within my budget... I think I'll stick with them unless my two don't take so well to the new formula.

    My puppies are currently eating Canidae All Life Stages...

    My adults get a mixture of Canidae and Diamond Naturals Chicken and Rice. I used to have a couple dogs that did best on Diamond naturals, so they got straight diamond naturals.. and the others got Canidae, however this past winter I just started mixing the two and its worked great for them...

    They get it mixed with a little bit of warm water and 1/2 a can of canned food (1/2 can between 5 adults... so not a lot of canned - but its how my handlers feed the client dogs, so I started feeding mine that way)...
    If you're gonna breed Collies, don't you forget to breed in the brains and common sense. Without that you won't have a Collie, you'll have just another dog.

    All three are on raw. After trying Innova Evo and various puppy formulas, I finally got Keeva to gain weight after switching to raw.

    AND they are outsourcing to Diamond.

    Personally, I'm not too worried about the changes; for the price-range this food is still by-far the best you can get, and personally I can't really afford anything more expensive than this... this food is WONDERFUL for the price you pay when compared with other brands like Pro Plan or Nutro (at least in my area, the prices for those brands, same size bag, are about the same). So unless my pets start doing bad on the new formula I will not change... I can't really afford to at this point, unless its for health reasons that is.

    That's what Bella and Ripley eat too. In the morning they eat it dry and in the evening I moisten it to make a little gravy. Oh, I also feed the "Light" variety because Miss Bella could stand to lose a pound or two.

    Wow.. to all of you who feed different dogs different foods, youre amazing.
    That's gotta be a lot of work! Three dogs and three foods.. shoot. I couldnt handle it.

    We're feeding Nature's Recipe: Lamb & Rice Kibble. Right now Bunny eats it plain in her eat-slower bowl. Eli gets kibble plus some water in his regular bowl. He wont eat it dry, he'll take a mouthful, walk away from his bowl and spit it all over the floor. For the past two weeks we've been mixing 1/2 can of wet food with Zeke's kibble in his eat-slower bowl.

    Had Nutro Ultra canned but it was chunks so that didnt work well, now I bought Nutro Max and some Natural Choice wet foods that are the regular non-chunk stuff. Works well to stir it up and mash down in there. REALLY slows him down because he has to lick it out. Otherwise he chokes on the kibble plain. Bunny and Eli do get some little tidbits of wet food 'cus I just cant help myself.

    Someday when we make more money and quit with all the home improvement projects, I'll feed them Blue Buffalo 'cus they REALLLY like it. =)

    Sidenote: Anyone know why its hard to find a canned food without By-Products?! Not difficult, just hard to find an economical one that doesnt have them. Even Nature's Recipe puts them in the canned, but they advertise that theyre not in the Kibble.

    Man, I'm windy tonight, sorry!

    Bunny: BoxerxSheppard mix, Eli: Boxer, Treo: Boxer
    Zeke [RB]: RottweilerxAustrailian Cattle Dog mix
