Maria, I'm going to make a couple of suggestions.

First of all I think the Pro Plan (which is a Purina product) is available through Pet Stores or places like Feed and Seed stores (at least my Feed and Seed has it). Maybe yours can order it if they don't carry it.

Secondly, I have a friend, Missy, who has compliled a lot of dog food information, critiques and ingredients so that you can use them for a basis of comparison. Keep in mind that she also sells an excellent food, but it is VERY expensive and I do not buy it. I do think that just using her comparisons is helpful though. If you think it might help, check out www. greatgoldens.com . She also has cat food comparisons.

Even if you can't go with one of the "premium" foods, I'm sure you will find the right thing, within your budget, for Major! How about give him a little kiss and hug from me!!!!
