Kirkland brand itself was also on the last major recall.
When then are you saying that Innova doesn't use any of that and Eagle and Diamond does?

Sidenote: For those who don't feed Dinovite it's great stuff. Help with itching, shedding, stink. She loves it...

Where do you get yours? I have one more free bag waiting for me down in Monterey at the store I used to work at, but after that I'm going to need to find a new source. I may try Canidae since the store near me has it and they have a high protein chicken formula (which is the only thing Kramer will wolf down most consistently)

find your dog some food it likes! just keep trying. I feed my dog half n half each meal as she gets picky about the dry food.......but if shes realy hungry shell eat it. If the dog is given a lot of "people food" that can be a reason.

We have fed my lab/whippet mix Canidae since he was 1 and a half when we got him. He has now moved on to Senior. He absolutely loves it (he'll eat anything though) and has been really healthy since we've had him.

If a local store sells Natural Balance check their price, the store I used to work at was cheaper than petco.

I know AnJan doesn't carry the cans I feed him (Merrick) but I may go back and browse their kibble.

This cracks me up. Here we sit yapping about our pets health. I just had a pulled pork sandwich with dill pickles and cole slaw, baked beans, and corn on the cob, 22oz Stone IPA, half a bottle of Cabernet, and a Marlboro Light.

That hollistic eagle food had a rice, rice and an oatmeal in the top 5. tho good quality products, it would be nice to have at least one of those below the top 5. The Diamond naturals is a bit better.

To the OP: The canidae and innova ur using now is just fine products; keep it going.

And someone asked where people go: petfoodexpress.com
