If your budget is limited, shopa round. Propac is fairly decent and like 28.99 for a 33# bag.

joanna – Red Flannel is a 2 star food, how about feeding your dog a better food at a similar price? You can contact Red Flannel or look on their website for other sellers in your area. Would you want to eat the same food all your life? Boring !! Perhaps you live near a Menards which sells Diamond Natural (4 Stars) or Nutro Max (3 Stars). Costco sells Kirklands which is a 4 Star food. Blains Farm and Fleet sells Taste of the wild and several other dog foods. Remember to transition slowly to a new dog food. Its not that hard with this website to guide you. Just look at 3 stars or higher and you will be doing your dog a favor. If your dog ate a Chicken based food with success look for another Chicken based food.

Our dog started eating Red Flannel about 2 weeks ago and he is in his 3rd day in the hospital and hanging on. I’m not sure if it is the food that caused his issue, but I am almost certain that the lack of “good” protein product in this dog food didn’t help him any. He’s suffering with ITP which is a condition in which the immune system attacks his own platelets thus resulting in his bodies own ability to clot his blood. His platelets were at 13k when he went in and the norm is 200k-500k. A number under 50k can result in internal bleeding b/c the body isn’t able to heal the tiny little bursts in the capillary beds. His blood protein level is at ~4 and the normal range is above 5.5. I’m not saying that this wouldn’t have happened had he eaten a different brand of food, but I certainly don’t think that the lack of nutrition did him any good. By the way, I checked the bag sitting in our garage and the first ingredient is corn. I wish I had researched this brand.

thank you all for the great info, switching from purina dog chow with a 14 year old choc lab survived the ingredients with no issue to red flannel. my thanks to all input and allowing me to review the different types of reviews. I am going to try to compare to exclusive where its more expensive but perhaps has more digestible matter therefore, saving since we wont have to feed as much.
