    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.

    Nova and Konnor eat Taste of the Wild due to Konnor's food alleries. My foster dogs Chubbs, Simba and June eat Pro Plan Adult and my foster puppy's Koal and Skylar eat Pro Plan puppy for medium sized dogs (I have a lady who gets Pro Plan at a discounted rate for me since I rescue). I have to admint Pro Plan is doing a pretty good job at keep everyone (but Skylar's) stools normal and their coat and skin soft and healthy. I'm pretty pleased with it.

    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.

    I feed Orijen 6 Fish (this particular bag was the chicken one for a change, Digi preferes fish kibble by FAR). I believe its only Canadian so I doubt most of you have heard about it. I have some images on my server, take a peek. Its really good stuff! However it stinks like fish & so does her poo

    Deebo is on Solid Gold's dry food, "Just a Wee Bit Adult'

    Alize' gets Solid Gold's Hundchen Flocken Puppy & WolfCub Puppy mixed.

    Alize and her littermates ate that food from when they were weaned, and she has been on it ever since. At first though, she was just getting the Hundchen Flocken.
