    I thought corn was OK if it wasn't the main ingredient? I guess I'll have to reeducate myself.


    Thanks for the siggy, Lexi_Lover!

    I guess I'm okay with buying products with a weee bit of corn in it but if it's the main ingredient (like she said), I would avoid it.

    We just looked through a bunch of 50 lb bags of dog food looking for one that corn isn't one of the first few ingredients.
    Purina One seems pretty good.

    We're going to be switching to that after we get rid of the bag of Beneful.

    I would never feed anything with corn in it. No animal can digest corn, not just dogs. It is just a filler with no nutritional value. Right now I feed Innova and a partial raw diet. But soon I will just feed raw.
