Comparison chart for the dog food wars
For the ongoing dog food war. This is a chart which will compare the ingredients of the dog foods. It lists ingredients in order.
http://www.naturapet.com/display.php...wiz&animal=Dog You can also compare treats and this works for dog and cat foods

Yeah, that one is so biased toward Innova and California natural (it's their company's website). They don't list any of the foods that might be better than theirs. Like for Wellness, they only have the senior or puppy formulas, not the adult ones... They don't have Wolf King either.

it does give some insight as too what certain ingredients are(the chemically named ones) and what they provide to our doggies.

What's a high biological value anyway? More worthy of life? If it meant nutritional, they'd use nutritional, wouldn't they? Last edited by Prin; March 6th, 2006 at 10:59 PM. |

Honestly I think the best food is raw even though I don't feed raw at least you control everything that goes into it. I do feed kibble and it works for me and Bud when I win the lottery and retire all my Mastiff's ( at least 3 more) will eat raw. I am sold on it and from what I see of all the dogs I know on raw they have had marked improvement in coat and a couple with health issues do not have them anymore nothing major but UTI's. Two of these dogs were on Solid Gold and one on Fromm Natural. The owners also say it is cheaper in the long run but definitely not more expensive then the $70.00 bag of kibble and at least 2 a month and remember the expensive foods are smaller bags. Yes I know you feed less but one of those bags is only about 2 weeks worth of food for a giant breed plus supplements. When I was feeding Solid Gold I was spending over $200 a month, for a dog with the worst gas. I did switch to California Natural which Buddy and I really liked I think you really need to pick a good food that works best for your dog that you can afford. We did switch again to Diamond Large Breed then to Kirkland and that is where we are now.
