Science Diet V Eukanuba

[Prydenjoy]

I bought a bag of Hills for the very same reason - the bag cost $21.60 and I got a $20 rebate. Don't know what happened to the bag, fed it a couple of times (cringed alot while I was doing it), then the bag of Eagle Pack came in and haven't fed the hills since. It is horrible stuff, I couldn't bare to feed it to my growing pup. With all those grains and by-products its no wonder it tastes like cardboard. I have a feeling my rats got the left over hills...

my dogs go nuts for Hills! I still have to add a bit of cat food to Stella's bowl, but after that she just swallows it in 30 seconds. But gees, it's expensive:( I'm trying Supercoat Sensitive Skin this month. If doesn't go, I'll turn to Eagle Pack, I've found where to buy it easily.

BTW, Advance has very tiny kibble size.

Our dogs & cats wont touch SD, which suits me seeing as they support the RSPCA... I wasted $70.00 when I bought the SD Cancer diet recommended by the specialist for Molly & she wouldnt touch it... she preferred her garlic & butters sauteed chicken breasts...:LOL: But even the SD dry none of our animals try to even eat (even when I hide it under chicken mince & gravy!) you can put it down & when you get back all the chicken will have been carefully eaten & next to a clean bowl on the ground there will be a pile of biscuits.....

The only biscuits our dogs will eat are as follows:

Advance

EaglePack

Supercoat

so i guess to them even the cheaper supercoat tastes better than SD...

Jacki, my F.I.L one nite cut a roll of that preprocessed cat food (didnt have his glasses on) and thought it was luncheon so he ate it, had gotten halfway thru before MIL saw him & told him what it was!

We feed Vet's all Natural to our dogs and they have never looked better.

Hi, unfortunately after some research on pet foods, I was totally devasted to learn that I've been feeding my dogs pet food that was not good for their health. I'ave been feeding my dogs Science Diet for quite a number of years but since learning more about what's in commerical pet food, I'm now feeding them an all natural holistic kibble and have noticed improvement in their overall health and wellbeing. Both Science Diet & Eukaneuba are considered commercial pet foods and contain ingredients that are not good for your pet. Wouldn't even consider IAMS for one sec, if you want to know why, click into the website below and you'll know. IAMS conducts animal testing and tortures animals, totally defeats their claim of being animal loving.

Anyway, I've provided links to a few websites that will give you some insight into commecial pet foods and the benefits of choosing an all natural pet food.

Well, technically anything sold commercially is considered commercial pet food, but it is true that the quality of some is by far better than others. If you're interested in researching what pet food is the best you might as well research a properly made up BARF diet because I have tried researching both and discovering which BARF foods to feed in which portions is by far easier to research than trying to learn how to analyse the back of a pet food label!
