Huge favor to ask from those who have researched good pup foods....

chelle · 10-30-2011, 01:00 PM

Ok. I have asked countless questions on this forum, read countless websites and I could go insane with what to do with my dog's food.

Long story, but I am strongly considering changing, but I'm frozen with indecision and confusion.

I guess I'm easily confused, but I'll read a thread, see a few food suggestions, read another thread, forget which ones they said, etc.

I would truly and really appreciate it if someone who has researched this could simply make a list of 5-10 large breed puppy and/or adult foods that are appropriate for a six month old in terms of protein, calcium and phosphorus percentages.

Thank you in advance!!!!! (PS - So far, no signs of allergy issues)

Fromm Gold Large Breed Puppy

Native Level 2. Native should be easy to find in Iowa.
Fromm Puppy Gold, not Large Breed Puppy Gold

Neither Precise, Annamaet, Dr. Tim's or Verus are available in Iowa so I did not put them up.

You can add Pro Plan Selects Turkey & Barley Puppy to the list, really easy to find.

Honest kitchen, raw real food

I'd like this post to run a little while, and then I want to print it all out, make a nice condensed list and go from there.

Thank you for all your feedback so far.

Raw is something I'll consider in time. Not now, however.

Here are some grain free options:
Acana Wild Prairie
Acana Pacifica
Blue Buffalo Wilderness (any flavor)
Petcurean NOW! (any flavor, adult or puppy)
Orijen (adult or large puppy, any flavor)

This would be my list if you are on a budget, you can't go wrong here.

Thanks for the feedback. I'm going to switch to one of the above, leaning towards the WellnessSuper5Mix.
