I think the worst food is that food that's supposed to resemble ground hamburger, I don't know the name of it but it comes in a box with individule packages inside. It has the apperance and smell of playdough. When I was a young girl I remember my next door neighbor used to feed her lab mix that playdough burger junk and the dog only lived to be 6 years old due to kidney failure, cancer, allergies...and the list goes on. When her dog died she gave us this bag of crap that she used to feed her dog (a couple packages of vanilla and chocolate creme sandwich cookies made for people, a few boxes of that aweful burger crumble food, some grocery store brand canned food that, when I opened it, looked like fat, and other various nutrition-less foods. I bet that's why "Blackie" only lived to be 6 years old! Poor lady did not know any better, she thought that the way to show her dog that she loved her was to feed her that way. Needless to say when she gave us that bag of junk for our dog we thanked her for her kindness, gave her our sympathy for the death of her Blackie, said our goodbyes and shut the door, and, after examining the contents of the bag it went right into the trash instead of our beloved lab's stomach. I am not saying that if your dog does not live long it's the owner's fault, but in this case I think it was.
I feed my dogs Innova dry and they really like it. It's a good food. I have thought about starting them on Wysong brand but I'm happy with Innova so I don't expect I will change foods anytime soon. I will do my part to lengthen the life of my dogs. I can't do anything about what their genetics have in store for them, but I will keep them as healthy as I am able to so they can bless me with their love for many, many years to come.
