I've feed mine blue buffalo.worked fine made em have gas but they ate it fine

Authority was fine but they got tired of it? Why idk quit eating it

Now on nutro Large breed lamb and rice and they been good for a long while

But probably switching to taste of wild here soon to put something different in diet. try to mix it up every year or two to keep em healthy .

Fed my lab and catahoula diamond years ago .after 5-6 recalls I gave up and moved on to better brands and quit buying co-op type dog foods.no Purina , diamond or nutrina crap anymore

Mine are 5 and 6yrs old.
I keep 3 different flavors so they have a variety. Puppy, puppy chiot and adult flavor.

All the pet stores and vets I've spoken to about it, like it too.


Good job Jake best response on here glad to hear you take care of your family and pets👍
Yeah everything on here mentioned is garbage except fromm and taste of wild

I feed mine Purina pro plan but I don’t know how good it is . He is fat and healthy but constantly licks his feet. He also eats deer meat only for a week at a time and it doesn’t seem to help with feet licking. Vet said he needs an allergy shot every 4/6 weeks. We tried one but it was 200 dollars. What have y’all found to help feet licking. They do look red and a little irritated at times

We kind of adopted my FIL's dog when he went to a nursing home. She had bad dry skin and flaking. Vet put her on fish oil and it seems to be clearing up.

Thanks for all the suggestions, guys. I've got 30 pounds of Pro Plan left to go through but will probably switch to something else once gone.

This! Undigested fillers. Rescued an English Setter, many years ago, that was on Ol Roy when we got him. He made many HUGE piles until we finished the bag that came with him and switched him to better food. His coat improved and less doggy mines that released a foul, nose hair curling stench when mowed over, too.


experience is a freakin' awesome teacher....

I just mixed in a can of pink salmon, tuna, or sardines into my dogs food once a week. If you use sardines, get the plain ones in water.

Walmarks in the vitamin section. Just toss a couple pills once a day in with their food.

Yeah have an outside dog i saved from Alberta, when she was a pup, and i was about to rename her PILES, because that all she'd leaves in the yard 🤦🏿‍♂️🤣🤣 Figured I'd feed her whatever was the cheapest, but nope! Had to swap lol...

Even with good feed, if you feed them too much it will cause loose stools. All dogs are different. I feed all mine a different amount as some need more than others.

I may try the Fromm. Still doing some research on brands mentioned, plus I’ve got a 30lb of Pro Plan left.

Purina pro plan. 6 year old female active hunting lad I’ve run field trials and hunt long at times. . Shiny coat and has lots of energy. I fed Diamond with good result. I changed when they recalled 15-20 years ago….poison or something in the food and I just never went back.

There was a bad batch about 20 years ago. But they made it right.

Dang good feed though. I’ve been feeding it for over 20 years.
