Dog food ??

Post by Black Rock Kennels »

Looking to switch dog foods pretty soon wondering what some of yalls thoughts were on different brands. Know a guy who feeds Sexton and really likes it, also hear alot about diamond. And of course purina. I am feeding Ol'Roy right now and have for years but the dang price has bumped up alot in the last 6 months. Anyway just wanting to hear some suggestions

Nutromax...maybe a little pricier than some other foods but I only feed two and there's little waste. Here's a shot of one of my dogs, who isn't running much right now but is staying in real good shape on it:

I feed the Diamond Naturals Chicken and Rice and like it real well. I fed Purina one for years and I think this food is better. My dogs seem to have plenty of go and
stamina. I am staying with it as long as I can get it reasonable. 40 lbs. 30 bucks where I get it.

I have been feeding the Diamond Hi-Energy 24/20 but am making the switch to the chicken and rice. I am trying it because I found out the feed store that is the closest to my house has it for $22.55 a bag and a lot of guys are liking it on here so I thought I would give it a shot.

James,
I will have to agree with you on The Pride. I have used alot of different feeds but I like the pro series 26/20 better than anything I have ever used. Where do you buy it at James,,,,,, The place over at Hardy charges me 26.99 plus tax for it.

I just bought my first bag of TOTW 25/18 for my 5 month old puppies. Switching them from purina puppy because they were going to the bathroom like a goose. I like the ingredients as there is no grains added to it as filler like a lot of the other food. I also fed them a little last night and they could not eat it fast enough, never had that reaction with purina. It smelled good enough to the point I almost took a bite. :D

We will see how they make the switch.
