jrock.. i wouldnt call some one a bad pet owner just because they cant afford a $35 bag of pooch food. im a 24 year old working girl and ive got bills up the ying yang.. i do not spend $35 a bag/ but i do give my Dog EVERYTHING she needs to be happy and healthy. i think a Dog is better off being with a family that can feed it(economic friendly food) and give it love rather than be stuck in a shelter, alone & unloved. |

Regardless of who's said what, the next time I turn my dogs out on a farm and they start chowing down happily on CORN, I'll be sure let you know. That's basically what they're doing when you feed your Dog low quality kibble, except they wouldn't know because it's been flavored over with the putrid, leftover carcass of who-knows-what. |

DIGGER... I'm with you (although I could have worded it better... I was trying to be sarcastic). I think that the best owners are the ones that have to scrape by to give their pet a home. dogs wouldn't be eating 'Royal Golden' or 'Dog Food for the Dog-snobs Soul' on the streets... let alone Iams (which is what we feed our pup).
Having a loving home and a decent meal is whats most important for your pooch... not buying the most expensive food on the market so you can waste your days on a pet message board looking down your nose at those who either can't (or don't feel the need to) buy gourmet Dog kibble.

Don't worry. I'm sure that if you still choose to feed Iamsickly, Pukanuba, Hills Science Experiment, Ol Roy's Got Cancer, etc. when you know what the cons are of doing so your Dog will love you all the same.  |

You didn't ask me, Kimber, but I have fed Nutro products before. Max is their lower end option. If you'd be willing to switch to Nutro Natural Choice, you'd be doing your dogs a big favor. I just switched my dogs from Nutro Natural Choice Ultra to Innova Puppy, but would still recommend the right Nutro brand over other brands for people who don't want to get all the way into "holistic" kibble.

i asked him/her because he/she is very opinionated about everything, or so it seems....
i'm not opposed to switching to natural choice and almost went with that...but their sales rep was there and told me the max was better, it's certainly more expensive, at least in my town.
tell me the differences if you can. |

Ladies, I'm laughing so much when reading these posts. I'm sure it's all in good fun, but sometimes people do get heated over such silly things. Envy, it's good your trying to take the heat off the Dog Food. |

Just because someone doesn't have the money to buy the most expensive Dog food doesn't make them a bad person/pet owner! I really don't understand all the Holier than Thou attitudes? |

We're all just kidding around, lucylou, it's okay! What someone chooses to feed their Dog with all the information out there to help them is of course their decision.
