Anybody feed the 26/18 and if so how do you like it? Thanks in advance.

i fed it for 18 months would'nt recommend it....dogs coats never looked very good bad stools, and squirty when i ran them alot. There are better foods out there for the money. Did'nt seem like the dogs digested it very well with the unbalanced stools, and energy levels. Thats just my experience i'm sure others have different opinions.

I've been feeding it for about 8 months and I really like it. I dont have to feed alot of it and my dogs have never looked better. Good, healthy, shiny coats and they seem to have plenty of energy. JMO

just started feedin the orange bag today. think it is 26/20. fed sportmix 24/20 over a year really liked it but was out today so trying the pride.

Been feeding it for little over 2 months. I like what I see so far. Dogs look good and they eat it very well.

was a big sport mix fan switched to pride 24-20 really liked it then to the 26-20 and it is some of the best I've ever feed, dogs are slick as a mole.

I 2nd Jeremy Mapes post. I have had the same results with the feed. I like it. dogs like it. wallet likes it.

i've also have had good luck with it, dogs really hold up good on it and look good to. i give $19.50 is that about what you guys pay.

I split a pallet with Conroe and I've been happy with it so far too. I feed less and the dogs look very good on it. There are times I've noticed a little more stool but for some reason it's not all the time...........just once in a while. As far as for how they hold up on it I honestly can't really swear to that cause I haven't really started hitting it hard with them yet............but firearms season is over now so....................

I feed the 24/20 and I like it but I am going to switch to the 26/18 for the hunting season and then back to the 24/20 after the season. I was feeding Black Gold and loved it but the price got so high around here so I switched to the Pride. I can buy the Pride 24/20 for $16.00 per bag and the man at the feed store said he would let me have the 26/18 for $18.00 per bag since I always buy 5 or more bags at a time. My dogs stay in good shape but have more stool than they did with the Black Gold and it is loose at times but not all the dogs will have the loose stools.

Ive fed pride for about three years now and have no complaints. stool is easy to clean up. dogs stay in good condition. and its affordable. Raised a litter of pups on the puppy food last year and i had guys who have been around dogs a long time tell me they have never seen a better looking litter of pups, all were fat and happy. I like it, dosnt mean every one else will but i have no reason to change feed.

I get the green bag (26/18). I pay $23 a bag.

lf you guys are paying that much for feed you might want to try Best Feed or Crystal if you can find it ..it's all the essential omega fatty acids, which slicks you're coats up. I'm talking for real slicked up. If you're comparing pride to sportmix then that is'nt much of a comparison i fed sportmix before pride and it was'nt much of a switch. I'm not trying to be a party pooper i'm just letting ya know my experience maybe it will help someone, but sportmix and pride are the two worst feeds i've ever fed. Crystal and Best feed are a noticeable upgrade for about the same price range. I'm not bashing anything or anyone i'm just tellin ya how i've seen it. Obviously others like it. I'm just saying there is alot better out there. Pride and sportmix will keep you're dogs alive and if that is you're expectation then you'll be satisfied. Lol.

ive fed everything from hunters special to purina pro plan. I feed pride 26/20 orange bag chicken and rice. IMO its great feed.I was paying 22.00 tax included but had to burn 10 bicks gas to go get it. now I get it a few miles up the road for 24.43 tax included.its worth the extra 2.43 to have it right here at home. I have also heard good stuff about the black bag , I think it is 26/18.

I use be a dealer and have been feeding pride ever sience it came out even though i no longer sell supplies i still feed the orange bag in 45 yrs. i have feed almost everything out there and for the money think its the best.
