    This thread might be helpful in picking a food with quality ingredients http://petoftheday.com/talk/showthre...ght=food+grade ("food" and "grade" is highlighted because I searched for it)
    Purina mainstay, which Autumn gets from time to time, is $5 for a 17 pound bag and gets an overall b+ for quality. It's beef though so you have to make sure your dogs aren't allergic.
    I've always thought Bil-Jac was a very low quality food.

    When my old Doberman was a puppy, we went to a very "old fashioned" country type vet for several months. When we asked what he fed his coonhounds, he told us, "The cheapest stuff I can find."

    So. Your dogs would probably be okay. LOL. Still, we ran out of food one night and grabbed a bag of pedigree from the petstore to "hold them over". Dad, being frugal, insisted we finish the bag. By the time we did our pittie Bambina had hair like straw. It was falling out like crazy, and she was itching so much that she'd put raw sores on her thighs.

    Not all dogs do too well on the lesser quality foods, but I'm sure you could find something.
