thedogfoodproject.com lists the new ingredients for SG foods, now, so I guess it's happened already.

Well, the bag I got yesterday still has the old ingredients, or at least the bag says it does... But no stomach upset in Boo leads me to believe I got an old bag.

btw SuperWanda thank you for posting this. Without you, I might not have notice to find a new food for Boo.

Prin,
I'm afraid it is legit - it is the actually solid gold catalog - sent by SG themselves. You don't need to thank me - I should be thanking you and the others here for helping me decipher these food labels. That's why I noticed because I was looking so closely at this new catalog! |

I also purchased an old bag today.. and the ingredients on the SG site haven't changed for WK yet so I think there's still a window of time.. between them makign said 'new' food, and it making it to the stores.

fyi Technodoll: The grrrls tried two buckets of the dehydrated raw but never again ~ I've never seen so much poop in all my life.
I think I've posted this elsewhere but I guess it bears repeating. Global - Beaches emailed me advising that they expect to have TO on the shelves by the end of September. |

just spoke a friend who feeds NRG. She loves it. Has three pups and switched from raw to the NRG. I think its like any food, some dogs will like it, others wont.

What is NRG?

Are they changing the Just a Weebit too? - I dont have a pamphlet so I would actually need to bring the bag to the computer to compare - I didnt see any tomato pomace in the Just a Wee Bit - when I checked online.

I didn't even realize that they made dehydrated foods for dogs!!!!
Must be hard to find - or maybe I haven't opened my eyes to it. Must be expensive - I would imagine feeding raw is cheaper but dehydrated gives you the convenience. |

Solid Gold
I am not impressed by the change in ingredients. I drive out of way every couple of months so that I can get this food for my dogs. I recommend it to everyone and now they change it and not for the better. I will also send them an e-mail and a copy of this thread.
DVP is easier for me to buy so I just may have to go with a food switch. |

it's there, just have to dig for it (bad design IMO!) http://www.nrgpetproducts.com/pg3ingredients.html
but here is better: http://www.olee.com/nrg.htm just click on a formula and you will see the ingredients. however not updated with the new Bison recipe. OMG i would have to feed dakotah 6 cups of this stuff per day (plus add water so it plumps up, you get what, 10 cups of food?) he would NEVER eat this much, LOL! and imagine the poops! scary.

Yeah, I saw that, but that's not a real ingredient list. It doesn't tell you the exact order. The other one doesn't either... They pretend they do, but they don't.

how's this? http://dogs.about.com/od/dietandnutr...f/NRG_beef.htm i would assume the ingredients are in order, by pre-processed weight?

It's got turkey liver (bad for Boo) and wheat germ (bad for Jemma). Oats are also #1 on the list.

no no, i didn't mean how's this as in "would you feed it", LOL! i meant "how's this for list of ingredients cuz we're all curious". heck i saw a price of USD $50 for less than 13 lbs of the stuff, are they nuts? you have to feed tons for big dogs, it wouldn't last very long and you'd need a bulldozer to clean out the back yard after a week

Yeah, it's ok for the ingredients- told me all I needed to know.

Yeah, I don't shop enough to use a bag for each individual load.

The lady I know who uses it says it costs her $90 taxes in for a 16lb box. That box feeds 3 dogs (all around the 50-60lb range) for a month. the feeding guidelines are very high she claims. The site says a 5lb bag has 26 cups in it. So you cant really go by the dry weight for feeding.

Why would SG do that? I don't feed SG but I had a chat with the owner of the pet food store in my town. He's been informed of the change but says the price will stay the same. Seems the company is charging him the same amount of money for a lesser quality food. He wasn't too impressed and may stop carrying it altogether. Apparently he has a lot of trouble getting it in the first place, says SG often takes several weeks to ship him his orders.
For anyone who's interested, I feed Holistic Blend (not to be confused with Holistique Blendz by SG). My Benny is extremely sensitive to food in general, and to anything with chicken in particular. He does really well on the Holistic Blend Lamb and Rice formula, here are the ingredients: Quote:

Ok, so after talking to my dog food store and them not being aware at all, I decided to call SG directly. What a scam!
This is how my conversation went: "Are you changing the just a wee bit and WK formulas?" "Umm... No. I mean, we're adding salmon, but that's about it." "Really?" "Well, it's not really salmon, I guess, it's salmon oil. But that's it." "Oh, so you're not adding tomato pomace?" "Oh.. Well... yes, it's an added fiber source. But we removed some grains, like amarath." "Umm.. But didn't oats move up on the list?" "Well.. yeah, I guess so. Some ingredients have been moved around and other ingredients have been added to make it better, like we removed the garlic and we're finally taking it off the bag, but it's not enough to call it a "complete formula change." So that's that for me. |
