Default Fromm Gold

I just left my feed store where I primarily buy my horse feed, the owners approached me about buying some surplus bags of dog food that a customer had ordered, they bought a few too many and they offered me a couple of bags for 43.00 a bag. I have no experience with this food as I have never seen it sold in the stores around here and this was a special order.

I was wondering if some of you had fed it or feed it and your thoughts on the quality of this kibble. I told them I would be back tomorrow to let them know if I was interested.

I've fed many of their varieties to Bunny and she does great on it. Her BM's are always smaller and firmer. I think it's a good quality food but I don't feed it to her on a regular basis because it's extremely expensive in Canada. I believe it's over $80 here in Ottawa.

Here's a link in case anyone wants to chime in on ingredients.

Wolfie has been on Fromm Gold since he was able to eat solid food. I think it's a great food. $43 a bag is a fair price. That's what I normally pay for it.

I would take (meaning buy) it. If it doesn't agree with your dog, you could always donate it is a rescue. I wouldn't be afraid to feed it to my dog.

My breeder was feeding Fromm large breed Puppy Gold and I am not switching. It works well with the puppy so not going to upset the apple cart. Not wanting to give the high calcium and ash present in many grain frees. I may switch my adults over to the puppy formula (I like the slightly higher protein)

We just imported a stud dog for a friend, and she is feeding the Fromm Gold to him.
He is doing well on it, and the ingredients look fine.
I would consider it as a good food potential.....

We have used Fromm, and I can tell you that it smells very yummy! Some dog foods stink, but this stuff, even the cats want to eat it!
