So helpful because I fell for the Beneful with my mixed breed dogs and they loved it...Nigel got a hold of it and loved it but I had to get it out of the house and change the mixed breeds to Nigel's food. So everyone was eating Holistic Select Salmon but then Nigel got finicky (like his daddy [MENTION=2071]Davidh[/MENTION]'s "Buddy") so when Mrs. 'DavidH' suggested Fromm Beef Frittata I switched and all doggies eat that now. :D

I also thought Beneful was good. Roxy loves it, it's all she will eat. Then when Abby showed up and we switched vets I found out that Beneful is sprayed with fat and that's what makes it so appetizing for them. She said I might as well be feeding my dogs a diet of french fries. Now I tell everybody that I know who feeds it to their dogs, most are grossed out but I don't think any have actually switched foods. I don't get it.

Great article! When we first got into the pet food business I was taught by the holistic veterinarian who formulates our food to look at the first 5 ingredients on the label. Those first 5 ingredients can tell you right off the bat if it's a good quality food. Then you have to look closely at the rest of the ingredients.

Any recommendations? I am feeding my dogs Beneful right now I used to buy Iams Mini Chunks, because it was easy for them to chew up. The only brand I really didn't like was royal canin, because it made their feces really soft and runny. impossible to pick up.

Fromm, natures logic, natures variety, blue wilderness, blue basics... These are a few popular brands on here. Some cannot be bought at regular retailers, some are found in feed stores or pet boutiques, but all can be found on petflow.

I read everything I could about Buffalo Blue, Fromms, and Wellness Core Grain Free. All are good. The Buffalo Blue caused Bella to have horrible gas. I choose to try her on Wellness Core Grain Free because they label their product as having no GMO products in their good. The transition was a little rough but she gobbles it down and her gas isn't nearly as frequent and is diminishing
