TDG Posted November 18, 2005 Share Posted November 18, 2005 there are better options out there than FRR. in my opinion it has too much grain and not enough meat, and it also contains generic "poultry fat". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iamwonderwoman Posted November 19, 2005 Author Share Posted November 19, 2005 Thanks for the info. I am trying to find a good food. I like the idea of BARF, but I don't have the time. Lee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackieMaya Posted November 20, 2005 Share Posted November 20, 2005 Do most dogs like Innova? I checked out their website, and they have a large breed dry food with glucosamine and chondroitan in it. And there are several stores in my area who carry it. I'm thinking of making the switch from Science Diet Light Large Breed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sabine Posted November 20, 2005 Share Posted November 20, 2005 Hi there, I feed Wellness Super5Mix. Used to be one of the best dry foods out there. HOWEVER - they started adding Vit. K3 now and they took out some of their high quality ingredients. :evil: Now I'm in the market for a new brand of dry food. I'm thinking along the lines of "Chickensoup" or "Breeder's Choice" (Pinnacle) BTW: Is it true, that the Kirkland/Costco brand is a "generic" of the Diamond brand? ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TDG Posted November 21, 2005 Share Posted November 21, 2005 sabine - yes, kirkland signature food is manufactured by diamond. it's of better quality than most of the stuff they make tho, certainly better than most of the regular "diamond" line products, which are mostly byproduct based. the pinnacle foods are overall of higher quality than chicken soup (which is also made by diamond), but there are also a good number of other high-end brands that are even better, such as for example innova, california natural, canidae, eagle pack holistic select and so on. one thing i really like about the pinnacle line is that they have a nice duck & potato formula now. it's not 100% grain free but a nice formulation nevertheless.

Sabine Posted November 21, 2005 Share Posted November 21, 2005 Hi TDG, thanks for your input. I'm really leaning towards that duck and potato forumula. ;) My puppy is such a picky eater :roll: I have her on a mix of Wellness Super5Mix Lamb and Kirkland (half/half) I add some ProZyme, Missing Link and Neura Beef to that, and she'll eat. If I take the Kirkland out, she just stares at it. :evil: Oh well - there are plenty of dogs out there eating the stuff in the "yellow bag", right? :lol: I'll just try some samples at my pet-store and go from there. (They sell all the brands you mentioned. ;) ) The things we do................ :D :angel: :oops: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
