    Feed whatever you can or whatever you find that keeps your mutts looking good IMO. I would love to feed raw but like what was already stated I dont have the time to do it daily or the freezer space currently do prepare in advanced. On top of that, I haven't found a way to do it yet where the cost is a dramatic difference. When I feed Raw ( about ever other month) the only difference I notice in the dogs is their shit is smaller than it is on TOTW, thats about it though except one way takes me 1/2 hr to 45 minutes to prepare and the other takes me 5 minutes. Dog foods have certianly come a long way nutrition wise over the years as have the price of them. I didn't post Jacks comment to start a feud I posted it because I agree with it for the most part. Of course, he had to put his holier than thou twist on it but still, IMO processed food will never be as good as el natural. One has many chemicals added while the other does not. When I say that I am talking about a balanced raw diet vs a balanced kibble diet not kibble vs someones homemade diet that lacks in balance. In my short time with the dogs the one thing I have most definitly learned is, what works for you may not work for me. Hell, what works for 2 or 3 of my own dogs ends up not working for my others which is why I have fed so many different brands trying to find that perfect one that ALL my dogs do good on. Just haven't found it. I always end up back to TOTW because of it's quality, ease of feeding and most of mine do well on it unless it's winter.

    Anywho, many of the last posts, including mine, are off topic anyway as the OP wants to know the difference between old roy and old roy hi pro, not raw vs kibble.

    P.s. There is of course other things to consider when looking at the health of a dog and feed is just a part of a bigger picture. TdK has dogs that live into the upper teens feeding kibble and Jacks favorite dog died of stomach cancer at 6 being fed raw it's entire life. There is no perfect feed for all, just what works best for you and your dogs.

    If i had to go with a choice of the 2 products listed by the OP then personally I would lean towards the old roy hi pro. I never even seen the stuff so I would have to look at what is actually in it but I do know regular old roy is fucking garbage. Dont mean your dog wouldn't thrive on it, but I know mine would look like shit on a diet of old roy.

    Sorry, Laced. I didn't intend to take anything out on you about something someone else tries to shove down others' throats. Found it a bit high binding, shallow-minded and presumptuous, and only on the part of he who spoke the quote. Not you. Sorry about being careless in my irritation at the arrogance of another.

    speaking of ol roy check this out. i took a part time job at my local wal mart to get out of debt im a part of the inventory control team and i scanned a bag of ol roy and its made by simmons pet food one of the worse dog food companys they make twin pet which is straight fuckin garbage!! also theres a company call big heart pet foods that are now making all types of shit i dont know if they bought other companys out or they merged into a super company but they make milk bones gravy train and natural balance and natures variety. Google it and see if you think im BS.

    I recently went raw for about a month. After a few weeks i could see a difference. However, Im a hard working man that's pressed for time and money. So i went back to kibble, and throw my dogs a chicken quarter a few times a week. They still look great, i save time and cash while keeping my hounds healthy! I agree with TDK'S knowledge, & time he has with this breed !

    I dont know the brands mentioned but what evidence exists that feeding dogs raw is superior to what dogs have always eaten,raw and pre prepared in nutrition,health,performance,economy,and practicality?
