Hi David-
CLP is censored because the validity of their testing has not been proven and they refuse to disclose their raw data to consumers who have repeatedly demanded it. Until they choose to be more open and transparent to the consumer, Dr. Mike asks that CLP not be discussed here on DFA.
As for your quest for the best food, there isn’t one. Each dog has needs too individual to that particular dog and its lifestyle to be able to make a blanket statement like “Food A is the best dog food period”. What is the best food for my dogs will not be the same as what is the best food for your dog. You can use websites like this one and CLP to guide your choices on which products to try if you choose, but don’t make the same mistake I did several years ago and get so caught up in ratings that you ignore when your dog is doing poorly on a highly rated food.
