I have paid too much for my dogs to feed them cheap food.The last breeder asked what happened to your last. Cancer all 4 of them. Next question was what were you feeding them, Science Diet MD. its sold only by Vets. He said you don't know how many people looking for new dogs that have lost dogs that have been on Science Diet that die from cancer. He went on to say that there is no control like FDA for dog food so go on line and research dog food. I started them on Blue Buffalo but it had some recalls so the research began again and settled on Akana, Cobb Chicken and Green Bean now I spend the vet money on good quality dog food.

I've had good luck with Diamond Naturals Extreme Athlete for my GWP. Our old Goldens do good on Nutro Essentials Senior. Happy trapping! ScottW

My family has had the same line of dogs for 70 years. About ten years ago, I was loosing a few dogs a year to cancer. My friend who has the same line in another state had the same problem. We both fed dry dog food. Once I went to raw meat, have not lost another and the dogs look, perform better and have much less waste. Also the teeth could be on a toothpaste commercial. When I am at the store and see a cheap bag of chicken, I buy them up and feed it to them raw, it's less than dog food. Some good information on this site. http://www.texastripe.com/default.aspI have paid too much for my dogs to feed them cheap food.The last breeder asked what happened to your last.

Friends don't let friends feed thier dogs Purina I I used to think this as well. But, the breeder I got my last pup from was feeding them Purina Pro Plan. That's been a really good food. I'm starting to cut her over to Iams because that's what I feed my other dogs.

Puppy's need a good brand of PUPPY Chow for their first year.

UPDATE, so my pup has been on his new food "pure balance" for six days now he was not sure at first but now he loves it he has more energy and he does not poop as much, his hair is still the same but i think after a bit longer it should improve and be more shiny i hope.
