pro plan did well for you? my male cant tolerate purina foods or pedigree, he will drop weight terribly! he looks like a rottweiler on the eukanuba! hes all muscle! looks amazing, but they are gassy, i need a mid range priced food that still does well in improving the coat. im paying about 36 dollars for a 46lb bag (thats with my petsmart employee discount though) i need something similar that does just as well especially since i have a new pup i need her to get the best. anyone here show their dogs? if so what do you feed your show dogs?
I'm switching off of Canidae and going with Premium Edge - it's not causing gas so far - it's about $35 a bag... no beet pulp (this is a good thing)... a really good idea to feed puppies the same thing you feed adults...
I'm feeding the Lamb and rice formula - it's only 21% protein which is perfect for most house dogs.
Here is a list of the ingredients:
Ingredients
Lamb, lamb meal, whole grain brown rice, cracked pearled barley, oatmeal, millet, egg product, white rice, chicken fat (preserved with mixed tocopherols), potatoes, tomato pomace, flaxseed, ocean fish meal, natural flavor, choline chloride, dried chicory root, taurine, glucosamine hydrochloride, kelp, carrots, peas, apples, tomatoes, blueberries, spinach, dried skim milk, cranberry powder, rosemary extract, parsley flake, yucca schidigera extract, L-Carnitine, chondroitin sulfate, Enterococcus faecieum, Lactobacillus casei, Lactobacillus acidophilus, Saccharomyces cerevesiae fermentation solubles, dried Aspergillus oryzae fermentation extract, vitamin E supplement, iron proteinate, zinc proteinate, copper proteinate, ferrous sulfate, zinc sulfate, copper sulfate, potassium iodide, thiamine mononitrate, manganese proteinate, manganous oxide, ascorbic acid, vitamin A supplement, biotin, calcium pantothenate, manganese sulfate, sodium selenite, pyridoxine hydrochloride (vitamin B6), vitamin B12 supplement, riboflavin, vitamin D supplement, folic acid.
When offering a handful of dried Canidae and a handful of dried PE - all the dogs chose the PE.
Dogs used in this demonstartion: GSP and a GSP puppy that will eat dirt - sticks - and "dead" things... so I don't think she counts... a Fila Brasileiro - who eats dead things - so I don't think he counts either - and a Doberman - okay - he's picky...he might count....
