Re: How does your dog food rate?
Ive been feeding river run for about a year now and really like it. I pay $17 for a 50lb bag of the 27/12 and $19.50 for the 27/18. the 27/18 is some of the best dog food ive ever feed. But if your not running them alot i wouldn't reccomend the 27/18 as they will put on alot of weight.

I use Pride 22/16 (Brown Bag). My dogs seem to do well on it! The price just went up to $16.25/50 lb. bag.

I still feed Purina Hi-Pro----50 lbs for $17.58 at the feed store. Everybody does just fine (except for that skinny one and I don't think it 's the fault of the food, just genetics)

Tomboy 27/18 14.85 + tax for 50 lbs.
Re: How does your dog food rate?
Canine Cuisine at Fred's is 9 bucks for 40 lbs. Stools are a little loose, otherwise fine. I feed some scraps and stale bread too, and add fat in cold weather. I'm going to Sportmix when I feed this batch out. Food Lion carries a Purina knock off that is about the same for less money.
People think they can "soup up" an ordinary dog by feeding it something wonderful. I heard guys talk about their dogs doing twice as good once they switched to Diamond Green bag. People are about like PT Barnum said they are.... or worse.

I found some Hunter's Special 26/18 for 12.95 a bag. I think I will give it a try. Anyone used it?

The only food I've fed that seemed to make the hounds hyper was the Pride 27/18 (blue Bag). I'd told my salesman, they acted like they'd drank to much coffee...Larry G wrote:Canine Cuisine at Fred's is 9 bucks for 40 lbs. Stools are a little loose, otherwise fine.

We're on the Sportmix 24/20 right now. Hounds holding well...

Re: How does your dog food rate?
I'm with S.R. Patch as we too fed the Pride but we fed the 21/17, chicken/rice Pro formula and are on Sportmix now. Dogs are doing well on the 24/20 Sportmix.

Re: How does your dog food rate?
I have fed sportmix for years. Recently I started distributing from my home. I get $17.50 for 26/18: $17.25 for 24/20: and $16.00 for 21/12 Never had a complant other than loose stools and lack of weight gain from one man. Come to find out he was feeding twice the recomended amount. I finaly convinced him to feed less and the stools became solid and the dogs got fat and slick.

Re: How does your dog food rate?
Taste of the wild $41 30 lbs mixed with Exceed $21 44 lbs so the average price per pound is $1.14 per pound but I only have to feed .75 cups per dog per day and very little stool they are ran 2-3 times per week at 4-6 hours per day and they have no problems keep weight on. look at what is in the taste of the wild... Sounds better than my wifes cooking
