I don't know anything about Valu-Pak dog food but I did go to their website and looked at their feed. Read the ingredients label. One of the first ingredients listed is ground whole grain corn. It is not a grain free food like the Taste of the Wild you have been feeding. I personally would not feed it to my dog.

With that being said, let me share what I've done recently.

I had my OMC on the TOTW Lamb formula.

It's $49.99 per 30 lb. bag which figures out to be $1.67 per lb.

I switched her to the Hi-Tek Naturals Lamb formula and it is $63.64 per 44 lb. which figures out to be $1.44 per lb.

She is doing great on the Hi-Tek Naturals and I think it's a better food than the TOTW and it costs a little less per lb.

At least it's not made by Diamond Pet Foods like the TOTW.

Diamond has had several pet food recalls.
