 Curious what everyone feeds their dogs? I've been feeding Taste of the Wild for years, but saw something scary on FB today.  I haven't been dog food shopping for a longgg time!

I recently (maybe 2 months ago) switched mine to Merrick Whole Earth Farms Grain-Free.  I'm feeding the pork, beef, & lamb in the all breed, all stages formula.. so far, so good!  My picky dog actually likes it and eats good, but a bag lasts her quite a long time.

Thanks! I've heard good things about that brand too!

Ol' Roy High performance.  We tried the high dollar stuff and this is the only thing that works with his issues.

Purina One. Less gassy than on cheaper brands but still reasonably priced to feed 3 larger dogs.

Nutro for one and Acana for the other (he has a sensitive stomach and this seems to be the best one for him). I think they work out to the same price

Dog food advisor has ratings on dog foods based on ingredients. I feed Petcurean Brand - the canned goes by the name of GO, but I can't remember what their dry food is. Taste of the Wild made my youngest dog ill so I quit feeding it.

I switched my moms dog to 4health, she loves it and wouldn't eat any other food she was given (0ther than nasty cheap alpo). I also started my cat on 4health as well from science diet.

 We feed 4health! All of ours really like it. The grain free has really helped with loose stools that we used to battle in the heat :(

My pup right now gets Orijen puppy. I really liked all the ingredients listed, and my puppy loves it. I do have to have it shipped because no one carries it around here. She also really liked the Diamond Naturals Small Breed Puppy formula. I got that one for her when I forgot to have the other shipped in time. She's a toy aussie and the diamond naturals is way cheaper with a super small kibble.

I also did a lot of research on Dogfoodadvisor.com

I also feed TOTW and saw the same thing on FB.

I will keep them on it until I see an issue.

I have already been through Purina, Diamond, and local higher quality dog food carried by the feed store.  All of them gave my dogs very loose stools about the 3rd bag in.  

I have not had any issues with TOTW.

Ol' Roy High performance.Β  We tried the high dollar stuff and this is the only thing that works with his issues. Β 

My husband feeds Ol Roy to all of his working dogs.

Edit...My little dog wasn't eating Ol Roy, realized it could sound that way. She is pretty much a rescue case that her allergies had been ignored by previous owner.

My little inside child came to me with horrible skin issues. Vet put her on Science Diet and I bought 2 bags before I swapped. It was $30 for a bag that lasted her like 2 months. And her skin didn't improve much.
I swapped her to Taste of the Wild and fed that for 3-4 months and she did improve some. I got tired of driving an hour to get it, or running out and not being able to get it.

I was looking at Walmart a while back and notice a grain free brand, Pure Balance and tried it.
We're on our 3rd bag and her skin is actually HEALING. It's cheap, she eats it, and her skin is looking better by the day. She is missing some teeth so I wet it with just a few drops to take the "crunch" away and she loves it.
