It sounds like you love your dog and are doing your best for him, and that's all that matters. The dog food issue can get very complicated, because there are a lot of variables to consider and not just the ingredient list - how digestible are the ingredients for the dog's body, does the company perform any research or proper quality assurance on their products, etc. Just reading the ingredient list alone is not enough, unfortunately, and there are many variables we may not know the answers to. I personally don't have an opinion between Ol' Roy or Kibbles & Bits and I don't prefer them. I would suggest a Purina product - still generally available from grocery stores and not as expensive as many other brands but is a brand that performs research and backs their products. They have numerous varieties. A lot of people hate on them, but I think it's a reasonable brand. Keep doing the best you can for your dog. Being anonymous on the internet can be both good and bad.

Both of those foods are CRAP. Seriously! You can find better quality food at Petsmart or Petco. You may even consider a raw type of diet by using Fresh Pet food which is pretty good quality with the proper balance for dogs.

To be honest I would NOT feed either one to stray dogs let alone my own dog. Same goes for cat food like Meow Mix.

What's 'rude' to one person, may not be to another. If you get what you feel is 'rude', move on. Many people seems to think it's clever to hide behind a blue face (!!) much as some people do target other contributors here, making it sometimes a good idea to go anon for a while.

If you could upgrade to something like Purina Pro Plan, you'd be doing your dog a healthy favor. It does cost a bit more to buy a better food, but you'll find your dog will need less because he will be getting more nutrition in every bite.

This is the Internet. People can go annoy and use it as a excuse to be cowardly.

I don't give my dog biscuits so I have no idea what those brands are

This also true in some. But I've been trolled at lot in this sections by people who just didn't like the answer I gave them, so started leaving nasty comments on my questions/answers, one threatened to find me and beat me up. This way I don't get any hassle.

This is The World Wide Web. There is no way to stop trolls from answering questions. According to 'experts' on canine nutrition both are poor quality dog foods because they have grain fillers & many dogs are allergic to some of the grains in the dog food. Usually it's the wheat. Not all dogs have problems with grains & do fine on the lower cost dog foods.

Look at all the fillers in the food we eat. What is wrong with fillers unless a dog is allergic to the grains. I can't afford the best for my dog, nor can I afford to buy my self the newest car on the lot, the used car lot.

Our hamburger has the 'pink' crap in it. Start looking at labels. Most dog foods start out with corn, more corn than anything else, second ingredient will by some kind of by product.....how far down do you find meat?

We answer the same questions over & over & over, again & again trying to help a dog. So many people post questions that can be found if they did any research. I would not feed those foods but that is my thing. I don't buy the best.

This is Y!A. It's anonymous, and poorly managed by the owners. That's why you get rude answers. Some people just like being rude.

Yeah that was me!

Im on disability and still buy better dog food. It has nothing to do with being rich, its effort and planning your money.

Since were all playing the Anon game ill join too.

Find a better forum. Yahoo Answers is now primarily a playground for "trolls" and Yahoo rarely does anything about flagrant violators of the rules and community guidelines. There aren't many good people left and I'm only here to "troll the trolls". As a result of Yahoo's indifference and neglect, the "Answers" user base in North America dropped so significantly that it was connected with Yahoo UK, India, Philippines,and Australia so you often never know where the questions and answers are coming from. Obviously, products in one place are unknown in another. Like I said, find a better website. Here: https://advicesacademy.com/guide/best-question-and...

That's nice. Do you have a question?

The deal is that you are feeding your dog the equivalent of McDonald's every day. My dogs are also on Heartguard and NexGuard, go to the Vet twice a year for complete physicals including bloodwork, live on a fenced acre and are loved. That has little to do with their food.

PS - You went anonymous too slowly, Callie. I should have figured out your ID yesterday. Shame on me! I love the rant followed by you posting anonymously. Say one thing and do another?
