Dog owners out there I would like your opinion?

Question

Professional breeders, trainers, vets, or just regular dog owners what do you believe to be the best quality dog food, dry and canned? The best dog food that provides everything a large (50+lbs) dog needs and not a lot of fillers?

thank you everyone for your answers!

Answer 1

Canidae is my very favorite.. I like Innova, too, but Canidae keep s even OLD dog's teeth sparkling white and clean..My old dogs act as pups, and my pups grew exceptionally well... I have fed most of the premium brands, and won't switch from Canidae..No fillers, all human grade ingredients, and small poops!
Canidae first ingredients are Chicken, Turkey, Lamb, rice..that means there is more chicken, more turkey, and more lamb, than there is rice..
Canidae makes a canned food too, but i haven't fed it..

Answer 2

I found a great dog food to be Nature's Recipe Venison and Rice. I have three dogs and one has sensitive skin, another has problems with Lamb and the other has problems with Chicken. This food enables me to feed all three the same thing with positive results. In addition I add some "Lamb Log" by Pet Botanics to two of their food bowls and for the one sensitive to Lamb, I use their Beef Log. Dogs LOVE that stuff and it can be sliced, cubed and given as treats too.
(all three of my dogs are over 50 lbs.)
Authority Oven Baked is also an excellent dog food, available at PetSmart Stores.

Answer 3

Some dogs can get jealous of their owner giving the child more attention and is taking it out on the child. Or if the dog owner doesn't have kids then the dog is not used to kids and might have been playing to ruff with the child. The dogs do need to be trained to not do that so no one else is hurt

Answer 4

The best dog food that provides everything a dog needs and not a lot of fillers would be the "prey model" raw diet.

Answer 5

Innova Evo is the best food you can buy your dog, in my opinion. Iam's, Science Diet, Eukanuba, and anything you can get in a grocery store or a big chain petstore is usually crap. Other high quality ones would be Canidae, Flint River Ranch, Newman's Own, Solid Gold, etc. www.naturapet.com

Answer 6

Dry food are the best for dogs, i know cane food smells nice and might appear to be more healthy, but usually it contain too much salt in it. I feed my dog dry food only and maybe sometimes treats, i use the brand Advantage but since my dog eats alot, will cost too much. I mixed it with the one i can get from the supermarket sometimes. you can make your own dog food as well, but just need to watch out the oil and salt contains. and if possible clean your dogs' teeth. i have friend who's dog have bad teeth and end up spending 400-500 dollars just fixing the teeth.

Answer 7

Evo! without a doubt the best dog food and probably the most expensive, but so worth it.

My dog has food allergies and someone told me about evo and it helped so much.Evo is made by Natura They put no by-products at all, no corn, nothing that most dogs with food allergies are allergic to. Its low-carb hi protein. Also, it will make your dog's coat look real good.

the site is www.naturapet.com

Answer 8

There are several. The tip is to read the ingredients. If it has fillers like corn then its not worth it. You also need to check the ash content. Some brands I like is Iams and Science Diet. They cost a little more but dogs tend to not eat as much because they do not have the fillers like the cheaper brands.

Answer 9

To tell you the truth I think that both mixed are better I have a husky and i mix both canned and dry food in a bowl and my husky angel loves it that way and all my friends do the same it is prbably better a scoop of dry and one pack of soft i think that is the way to do it.
