[QUOTE="Chuckie, post: 1196371, member: 637"] The best dog food at the best price that I have found is at Costco. It is a dry dog food and it is made by Kirkland's. It doesn't have the ingredients that are in cheaper dog foods such as corn or wheat. It is grain free, and the main ingredient is meat. They have a lamb and a chicken both. I would give anything if Costco wasn't over 100 miles from me. I have two dogs with grain allergies and I must feed a more expensive food made from sweet potatoes and meat. Sometimes I order the Venison and sometimes Salmon. It last a long time. I feed Natural Balance, and it is so expensive, but Abbey scratched herself raw and bloody when I fed other dog foods. When I fed this, all of her allergies stopped. I was so afraid that putting her down was going to be my only option as she was bleeding all over. I wanted to cry as she constantly scratched and I put all kinds of medications to stop the itch. Oatmeal, etc...... I medicated her for a while, which helped, but I knew that it was going to shorten her life feeding her a steroid all the time. It was much cheaper paying for the extra cost of the dog food than going to buy Temaril-P at the vet's office each month. Now she has such nice skin and a pretty coat. Here is the Kirkland's brand dog food rating. What is amazing is that it is around $40.00 for grain free dog food for a 50 lb bag. Most of your grain free dog food run that amount for a 28 lb bag so this is a great price for dogs not filled with corn and corn gluten as it usually makes the majority of the ingredients.
