wait... Iams is MORE expensive than Nutro (or at least at my store and all the stores I've ever worked at)
And honestly, a higher quality food means you'll feed less. Stool will be smaller, smell less and coat condition will improve so they'll shed less too!
broken down by how many cups are in a bag and how many cups a day a dog needs (per bag RDA) pedigree is more expensive than MANY of the super premium foods.
(I used pedigree as an example, and foods like nutro and iams and science diet are still more expensive too)
I'll try to find the chart someone made. I found it online a few weeks ago, checked the numbers and it was correct... stupid me I didn't book mark it, I'll try to find it again.
