I've heard of the company, but didn't know that they made dog food... So I went to look it up, and this is what I came up with.

It doesn't sound bad, except for the fact that FAT is so high on the list... but I'm not exactly familiar with the company. What other foods are you considering?

you should take the time to learn about this yourself. relying on people on the internet who may know less than you do is not the way to pick a new dog food.

i did this too, but finally realized i needed to be better informed. you should do the same.


just to qualify a bit - Moo knows what she's talking about. my comment wasn't directed at her, but in general.

you've posted several threads asking about different foods just today - and a few on other days like asking when it was a good time to switch from puppy to adult food - what else should i assume?

No need to get defensive.

You did not specify your reasons for your research... Faith is right, what do you expect us to think?

Squirt...you posted a one liner question that doesnt even have a question mark. Dont blame other people for making assumptions. If you want a more descriptive answer, state your question and what you would like to know about. Other then that theres not much more anyone can help you with.
