    I feed kibble. I've got two on Natural Balance Fish and Sweet Potato. Four are trying the new Nutro Natural Choice grain free. Not generally a fan of Nutro but I figured I'd give it a shot. The pups on the Acana Ranchlands...

    Taste of the wild, I switch between the different formulas. Hate the price but I've tried a lot over the years and its the only food that all the dogs do great on. Id feed raw but with work and kids I don't have time to prepare all that daily. When I did feed raw for 2 months I didn't really notice a difference other than the amount of time I spent preparing dog food.

    No can do. It's not gluten free. Raven likes to feed the dogs so with her sensitve system and her inability to keep her damn hands out of her mouth we switched all the critters to gluten free food to avoid cross contamination. That is one high maintenance kid I tell ya! lol

    I actually fed Nutro for many years but there are just so many more options now adays. I just found they'd do ok on it for a bit then their coat would start to look crappy. I know at some point I did try the ultra but I can't recall if I liked it or not! lol

    Raw and Diamond Natural. I really don't spend much time preparing food except during a keep when everything has to be carefully measured. Just toss a chunk of dead animal at them. If they get skinny, more. If they get fat, less.

    All the animals (two cats and three dogs) eat TOTW. However, we are switching them all to raw ASAP as I've wanted to for a while and as of now can no longer find a kibble that meets everyone's (specifically Bransen's) needs.

    3 mo pup gts a 90% totw and 10% purina per feeding. Older dog gets a 50/50% of same thing. But,he also gets raw chicken qts a few days a week. Used to feed 100% totw but cost keeps goin up. So I mix to stretch it. Both dogs doin great on current diet.

    I actually used the Acana with Scarling RIP before as she has allergy issues. She was on the TOTW for a long time and did awesome on it but I think the changed the formula slightly and her hair REALLY started to thin so I tried the Acana fish one and she did awesome on it. Deeohgee and CoCo are on the Natural Balance because they have allergy issues as well and it's the only food that they seem to be able to eat without getting a reaction. So far I am VERY pleasantly surprised wth the grain free Nutro. Tank, Arez and Salem are trying the lamb and their coats look really nice and shiny. Not sure how it will hold up long term but so far so good. Moonshines doing pretty good so far on the Acana Ranchlands. The fish and sweet potato Natural Balance was seriously making him reek like cat pis. The NOW made his coat really thin out on his head. He's only been on it a little over a wek but so far there is already an improvement.

    Forgot to add... I am trying the Nutro just because it's new and they had a really good deal on it. The three that are on it were on the Lamb and Rice Natural Balance but I'm already liking this Nutro better. I honestly had HORRIBLE luck with the Orijen. None of my dogs do well on it and get explosive bloody craps. I know some people who swear by it though. I find food to be such a trial and error thing. I generally have multiple bags of food on the go as I like to find the food that each individual dog does well on. It's definitely not a one food fits all kind of thing. lol
