Answer 2

Most of those are pretty good. I would probably rate the Eukanuba towards the bottom.

A lot depends on the dog, though. I know people who feed Nutro and have great luck with it. I had a dog on it for a few years and she suddenly started to have chronic diarrhea. My vet recommended switching her over to Eagle Pack and the problem cleared right up.

I've fed Eagle Pack ever since. I currently have a 15 year old hound mix that's been on it for 13 years. I've raised several puppies, both my own and fosters, on it, and every foster dog that comes into my house gets Eagle Pack. I have no complaints.

Just stay away from anything that has a lot of fillers (like Purina and anything else you'd find in a grocery store). Look for something high in protein with meat as one of the top three ingredients.

Answer 3

If I had to pick from this list I would choose either Wellness, Solid Gold, Canidae, Innova, Wysong or Eagle Pack. However, I feed grain-free only, so I feed Orijen and Nature's Variety. So you might look into those or Evo, Solid Gold Barking at the Moon, Wellness Core, Go! Natural, Timberwolf Organics (Ocean Blue or Wild and Natural) or Addiction. I also buy online and have them ship it to me and I use www.k9cuisine.com Some places are cheaper but with free shipping over $50 this place comes out cheaper in the end.

Answer 4

Look at the ingredients at the back of the bag, ( or the side).... If the first few ingredients are corn and fillers, the food is garbage, ( so I was told by my dog`s breeder). Try picking a brand of dog food tha your dog`s breeder recommends, ( a premium dog food), ingredients that are approved for human consumption, not garbage that isn`t fit for anything to eat!! Purina, Iams, Eukabuna, any grocery brand dog food is usually garbage.. That`s what I was told..I use Royal Canin for my pup, it was breeder recomended.

Answer 5

Eukanuba and Nature's Recipies aren't good foods, they have way too many cheap fillers and not enough meat proteins.
Wellness, Canidae, Innova,Eagle pack, Solid Gold, Chicken Soup for the Dog Lover's Soul are all good quality foods..no cheap filelrs, plenty of meat protein, no by products.

Answer 6

Wellness is a very good food brand. It has all natural foods in it that is great for your pet. But if you are unsure, read the ingredients on the bag and see if it is something that you would eat.

Answer 7

You know what, the more you read the more conflicting answers you will get so just go with what your budget can afford and your dogs like best...none of these brands are lethal. Even the most expensive brands' main ingredient is wheat and chicken by-product. Now, dogs dont eat wheat by nature and chicken by-product can be anything that they cant use for humans; but keep in mind that in the wild dogs eat the stuff we consider discgusting so...

Answer 8

I feed my dog Kirkland brand - Chicken, Rice, and Veggies which I have read scores very high on the healthy list.
I wish I could help you with those brands, but I've never used those brands before.

Answer 9

Eukanuba and Natures Recipe are not good foods. The rest are in my opinion. I feed my dogs Solid Gold, and they love it. I hope you will chose one of the quality brands.

Answer 10

Idk about all the rest but my dog has eaten purina her whole life (she is 3 & ive had her since she was like 7 wks old) & she has never had any health problems other than an ear infection or 2 but thats a common problem w/ cockers. The only 1 from that list i hav ever heard of is eukanuba. But i say go w/ purina.
