I agree. I use Nutro Natural Choice Chicken Meal and Rice formula. It has HUMAN grade foods in it. I got it at Petland for $32 for 40#'s. Usually at pet stores you are gonna pay more. I am going to check my local feed store for the next bag i get.
I also totally agree you should get the healthiest food that your budget allows.
Don't just take anyone's word about dog food quality.(even mine)Go research dog foods for yourself...see what YOU think...
I just recently researched pet foods (mainly dog). After i heard several people say that some dog foods have unhealthy ingredients or preservatives. I did not just want to take their word and switch foods. I researched it myself and found it to be very true.
It is hard to find web sites that are not by the dog food manufacturers. However i found ONE! http://home.hawaii.rr.com/wolfepack/
It is very infromative. It tells you how to read the labels of dog foods. Has most all dog food brands to compare ingredients with. Gives descriptions of the ingredients/preservatives. It was one of the best sites i found to help with my research.
I feel so much better now knowing what my pets eat is healthy for them and it won't cause them any problems or diseases later on.
Dog/cat food brands are a personal choice it depends on what you can afford and what you think is best for your pets.And of course it depends on what your dog/cat will eat.
Hope i gave you some helpful and informative info.
