I can feed a lot less because of the high fat content. ive been through a lot of dog food, and for the price, performace, and hard poo I get from the sportmix, it's worth every penny. i've watched my dogs run for 12 hrs after hogs all night long through the swamps of louisiana and texas and they never fizzed out. not to mention swimming through slus and blasting through marsh cane and heavy wooded areas. sportmix is truly a good feed. ive hunted 9 hog dogs for years and all ill ever feed them is sportmix 24/20.

When my husband got purina dog chow once he started to back out and losing wieght now we only feed him sportsmix brand and I trust it. My brother also feeds his dog the sportsmix and have not had a problem with that either. I would say if you feed your dog high quailty dog food their body is used to getting that and when you switch to a different brand of dog food it must be done slowly by mixing it in with their current dog food until their bodies can take the change before making the change complete. It's like when a kid haven't had a lot of sugar but when they eat sugar they get sick after being on a sugar high for a while.

Just think of all that spend $2 per day on vending machine junk - $1 beverage + $1 snacko. That's $60 per month, easily enough to purchase quality food for their precious pooch who didn't request to be a victim of inferior food. I recognize most people aren't in the category of mega-bucks, but it would be superb if we had a societal shift whereby food (Real Food) was a priority over non-essentials.

I like the "animal income" analogy. It's true. And also, with out food, that a lot of us like to spend as little as possible on, is what actually keeps us alive. Food itself, not the fact a lot spend as little on it as possible. Well said DFN. I like the “animal income” analogy. It’s true.

I picked up my order of Acana yesterday(7 bags) and two bags of Pro Pac-this may or may not be enough for one month(depending on the number of rescue fosters that come through-last month was 10 bags Acana and 4 Pro Pac) The bill was almost $500 . Add to that the Wellness(canned and dry @ $38) Canned 4 health was another $50, and the ingrediants for their homecooked portion was another $45. I feed this way because I can, but not everyone has the ability to spend a lot of $$ in this economy on their pets food. What bothers me is those that CAN and DON'T, taking the cheap route out thinking it doesn't matter- Scotty-
