lol kids!
I never fed my pups puppy formulas, just all life stages food. Depends on your pup and what you prefer.
Just make sure you transition both dogs slowly.

It is bull...
I know plenty of breeders that breed their springers for hunting, their dogs are very good at what they do and recieve many titles, and at the same time are family house pets.
Theres no reason for a dog to live in a kennel alone, period.

Absolutely, I'm just saying even if you pay more for a quality food, you will feed less, so it works out.

Taste of the Wild isnt all that expensive though.

There is no reason to keep hunting dogs away from the family.. thats a bunch of bull. I own a hunting breed, volunteer with the springer rescue and know many breeders, some that breed for sport. Their dogs are very good at what they do (hunting), but are also part of the family. Living like a dog sh...

So my 4 1/2 yr old springer Riley is a crazy man in the car. Especially when we start heading down roads that lead to his favorite walking spots. (we have to travel to different trails to walk because we live on a highway). He will bark nonstop in a high pitched bark the whole way. And if there is a...

Ok I mis typed in my last post... high quality food will last LONGER than lower quality because they are eating less so in turn will cost the same if not less... lol I'm tired.

My 55lb dog only gets 1 cup of food a day. (high quality) Try cutting back a tad on her food all together. I would also give less dry and more canned .. perhaps get something like Evangers 100% meat canned food. There is more protein in it which her body will actually use. Daily walks are a must!! I...

And I really dont get it when people say "I wont pay $50 for a bag of dog food". Do you not realize if you buy a better food you are going to FEED less? The food will then last the same if not longer than the old food....

Anyway thats just my pet peeve.

If you are going to feed Diamond go with Taste of the Wild. I would take the other dog off Iams too. Overpriced food full of fillers and bad ingredients.

You are wasting your money and doing your dog a great disservice by feeding foods with corn, soy, wheat, or beet pulp... among other fillers. You are basically paying for your dog to poop more. They don't digest it, they have no use for it, why feed it? It would be like feeding a shark a carrot or a...

My dogs eat chocolate all the time.... pudding, ice cream, reeses cups, etc. Our trainer, a retired vet of 25yrs does the same with her dogs. Her theory was the more they got it (in safe amounts) the more resistant they will be if exposed to a chocolate with high cocoa content or just a whole bunch ...

My dogs were the same when on Wellness... Riley liked it for a while, then I had to start mixing it with canned before he'd eat it. I don't see the harm in trying a different food. If you want to stick with fish based, there are plenty of good ones out there.. Fromm Surf & Turf Fromm Salmon From...

I use Advantix. In the 4 1/2 years I've had my dogs I've never once seen a flea on any of them, or at tick. At one point we did try Frontline and I found countless ticks on them. I would find a shampoo that uses d-limonene which is an all natural orange based shampoo that kills fleas. After that was...

Its a GOOD thing we dont have national health care.... And I will eat meat to my hearts content. You only live once and I sure as hell am going to enjoy at least the food I eat, since the rest of life is pretty crappy. My cousin lived as healthy as she could... never ate beef, only meat was chicken ...

I would look at: Wellness Puppy http://www.wellnesspetfood.com/dog_wellness_dry_super5mix_Just_for_puppy.html?page=dog_wellness_dry_just_for_puppy Innova Puppy http://www.innovapet.com/product_line.asp?id=502 Merrick Puppy Plate http://www.merrickpetcare.com/store/detail.php?c=14&s=20321 Blue Bu...
