very nice :) ^_^ they are also trying to do something about animal food, and passing laws about whats in it. With all the technology we have today there should be no reason for animal testing anymore

It took us a long time to find a good food for our dogs. Byproduct of this, byproduct of that. We have a local feed/plant nursery in our area that ran a commercial a few years back about food and treats from a few big name companies that contained chicken byproducts. People were losing their pets due to the bad chicken products in the food and treats. We now only buy the food that this company makes, in state. It costs us a little more but the health of our dogs is well worth it.

It looks very similar to what we get for ours. Slightly better it seems. Some of the ingredients on ours I cannot even pronounce. Hopefully I can find a place close to here that sells it, I can't see mail ordering large bags of dog food every few weeks lol.

Never could figure out how people could treat animals like the photos we've all seen..I'm a hunter and do kill some critters,but I'm also very compassionate.being absolutely so cruel to any animal is disgusting..

well, you may want to email them and see if they are sold whenever you go, personally i see food for anything this way
if i cannot pronounce it or it sounds like something created in a lab i dont eat, and i sure the hell aint letting my cat eat it either ;)
Granted its expensive but i find it lasts longer because its more filling, so it evens out to the same and his coat feels amazing, which is the number 1 thing to check on cats to know if they are healthy

Yeah I just picked up $60 bag of dog food that is suppose to be hormone free and uses free range chicken meat. I figure its less pet pills in the future.

you should REALLY check what the companies "free range" really means, sometimes they say free range and they're not free ranged at all.

Just changed my dog to Authority Grain free chicken.

She had a bad limp in her hind leg, and the pills weren't completely fixing it. So I got her dog food with Chicken and chicken meal as the first two ingredients. She is now pretty much limp free and spends more time in the living room with the family.

My cats have a similer hard food.

Yeah I use grain free too. I heard corn is really bad for dogs.
