Hey,

For all the dog owners out there, what kind of food do you feed your dogs?

I've been feeding my dogs Bil-Jac, but it costs ~$55 for 35 lbs. (lasts about 2.5 weeks), which is a lot more than other brands, so I think there may be a brand out there that is just as good (or better) but cheaper.

I've heard about Blue Buffalo, anyone tried that?

I used Innova until changing to senior dog food. It is about $49 for 33 lbs and only first grade ingredients. My dog doesn't like the senior Innova though.

im using pedigree now but he doesnt like it as much as he liked science diet, i think once hes almost done with this bag we might switch back.

here's some info i found:

If you need some more info on which dog food to choose, here's a good place to start:

The Dog Food Project - How does your Dog Food Brand compare?

Here are my personal choices for good quality dog kibble:
- Timberwolf Organics: Timberwolf Organics - Herbal Natural Pet Food
- Merrick: Merrick Pet Foods
- Nature's Variety: Nature’s Variety
- Wellness: Old Mother Hubbard
- Innova: http://www.naturapet.com
- Canidae: All Natural, Human Grade, Holistic Pet Foods. Dog Food, Cat Food, Kitten Food, Dog Biscuits, & Canidae Platinum Diet

The foods I would definately avoid:
- Pedigree
- Iams
- Purina
- Eukaneuba
- Science Diet
- Ol Roy

Here are some non-kibble foods that I personally like:
- Healthy Paws: Healthy Paws Incorporated - Fresh to Frozen pet food supplier
- Urban Wolf: All Natural Grain-Free Pre-mix for Raw Homemade Dog Foods - Mix With Raw or Cooked Meat & serve. raw holistic dog foods, raw barf, raw barf homemade dog foods, natural pet foods, natural barf dog foods

i'll see which of those on the top list are available in my area

found out my local store carries Blue Buffalo, so i'll be giving that a shot

I feed my dog Blue Buffalo (dry food) and Canidae for canned. My dog loves them both. I usually switch up flavors for the Blue Buffalo.......the only flavor he didn't really care for was the fish and rice (didn't care for the fish). Here, you only can get Blue Buffalo at Petsmart.

Here's a ratings review that someone sent me via email a while ago:

How to grade your dog's food:

Start with a grade of 100:
1) For every listing of "by-product", subtract 10 points
2) For every non-specific animal source ("meat" or "poultry", meat, meal or fat) reference, subtract 10 points
3) If the food contains BHA, BHT, or ethoxyquin, subtract 10 points
4) For every grain "mill run" or non-specific grain source, subtract 5 points
5) If the same grain ingredient is used 2 or more times in the first five ingredients (i.e. "ground brown rice", "brewer

thanks for the info everyone, especially cone killer, i got the 30 lb bag of blue buffalo, i wish you could buy it in more bulk to get the price down cheaper

I feed my dog fresh chicken and beef and he loves it. He's too spoiled to eat dog food now. :LOL:
