Kirkland Brand (Costco) was rated #1 in Consumer Reports. I try to only feed my babies what is good for them... I wish they could live forever.

my dog is 17 going strong, purina or whatever is on sale from day one. ive never had a vet tell me my dog food was bad, just dog food manufacturers telling me there dog food is far superior. im sure some are better than others, but honestly it doesnt really bother me and my dog will run circles around yours and outlive it too. HA!

We have always fed our dogs the Nutro brand. I just feed them the dry kibble. Given that the food is gone in < a minuite they either like it or are very hungry.

They are / were all Labs and have all had very long and healthy lives. They jog 2.5 miles 3X/wk with me which, IMHO, keeps them healthy more so than the food.
