Eagle Pack Dog Food

I went to get my regular Chicken Soup food from my supplier yesterday and he told me that he was not going to carry it anymore. He mentioned a brand called Eagle Pack that he is going to use instead. I have never heard of it so im asking if any of you have. He gave me a pamplet on it and it has some info about it so here it is.

Ingreadents: Chicken meal, ground corn, brown rice, pork meal, corn germ meal (dry milled), dried beef pulp, chicken fat (preserved w/ natural mixed tocopherols and citric acid), anchovy & sardine meal, brewers yeast, dried egg product, flaxseed, salt, potassium chloride.

Crude proteine 30%
crude fat 20%
crude fiber 4.5%
moisture 10%
calcium 1.8%
phosphorus 1%
Vitamin A 22,000 IU/kg
Vitamin E 165 IU/kg
Omega 6 2.9%
Omega 3 .57%
Glucosamine 41 mg/cup
ME 431 Kcal/cup

NOw the thing that turns me off the most is the corn being the second leading ingreadent but I am think of mixing this food with a small bag of Van Patten food or maybe some Natural Choice food.

 

You'd be degrading in kibbles instead of UPgrading! Makes absolutely no sense to add a poor quality kibble to the mixture of your dogs daily diet.

 

Im sorry it's not natural chioce it called Sensible Choice. Natural choice is that Nutro stuff and im not a fan of it al all. That's not what I would be adding. Got my choices mixed up.

 

i used to use eagle pack about 10 years ago. it worked for us then but now that i know better i wouldn't feed it. as far as the natural choice i don't like it either. it is more expensive than the nutro max and i get better results from max. now sensible choice is a good feed. i used it for a while and had to switch once we got more dogs. now that we have slimmed down again i haven't switshed back cause nutro max is doing good for us. but if i were going to pick outta any of those i would go with sensible choice. it's at the same level as chicken soup. if not better.

 

The eagle pack has a holistic blend that's ingredients are all right. Its expensive though. One nice thing about eagle pack is that they use human grade ingredients, which is a step up.
My own experience using the stuff, it gave my dogs the runs bad. We kept them on it for about 3 months and they had the runs the whole time, to the point of messing in their kennels once in a while. We switched to another food and they were fine.

 

Not if those igredients listed above are what is in the feed. I would classify it with Iams and Eukanuba to be honest with you....junk with a hyped up name and bag info.

 

no, I beleive, if memory serves correct, the holistic blend has much better ingredients. I will try and track it down.

 

Yeah, here are the ingredients on the holistic select chicken formula
Chicken Meal, Ground Brown Rice, Oatmeal, Chicken Fat (Preserved with Natural Mixed Tocopherols and Citric Acid), Anchovy & Sardine Meal, Pork Meal, Dried Beet Pulp, Whole Ground Barley, Tomato Pomace, Dried Egg Product, Flaxseed, Canola Oil, Dried Apples, Cheese Meal, Dried Carrots, Air Dried Peas, Sun-cured Alfalfa, Salt, Potassium Chloride, Quinoa (Organic), Inulin, Glucosamine Hydrochloride, Dried Cranberries, Dried Blueberries, Beta-Carotene, Dandelion (Organic), Garlic, DL-Methionine, Vitamin A Acetate, Vitamin D3 Supplement, Vitamin E Supplement, Riboflavin Supplement, Vitamin B12 Supplement, Niacin Supplement, Choline Chloride, Pyridoxine Hydrochloride, Thiamine Mononitrate, Folic Acid, Ascorbic Acid, Biotin, Rosemary Extract, Inositol, Dehydrated Kelp, Polysaccharide Complexes (sequestered) of Zinc, Iron, Manganese, Copper and Cobalt, Potassium Iodate, Sodium Selenite, Yucca Schidigera Extract, Lactobacillus acidophilus, Enterococcus faecium, B. Subtillus, Bacillus lichenformis, Bacillus coagulins, Aspergillus oryzae and Aspergillus niger.

I wouldn't feed it to my dogs, we trialed it about 5 years back. I am not a big fan of some of the ingredients, but its a big step up from Iams or Nutro.

 

Hey Jasong I have never herd of that brand. But my vet gave me a website that has a lot of info about different dog foods, and the good and bad things to look for in them. I hope that this helps you at all.
