    I'm going to straight Pro plan. I had one dog left on Victor when this happened and it gave me all the reason to make the switch completely.


    I still want to try Inukshuk, but the only way I could do that financially is to buy it by the pallet and I haven't found enough people around me interested to make the switch.

    I like Pro Plan but you have to take out a reverse mortgage to be able to buy a bag now! I am giving taste of the wild a try. The yellow bag that is Bison and Vension. On dogfoodavisor.com it got really good ratings for one of the best dry dog foods

    Yep. The 21.3 kg bag is now $92. Not sure why my dog food weighs itself like a drug dealer but that equals 47lbs. Paying more for dog food than skinless, boneless, chicken breast filets is a real headscratcher. MG

    Are you gettging a big discount on the Taste of the Wild food???

    According to Chewy.com:

    Purina Pro Plan 30/20: 50lbs $88.98 / $1.78/lb

    Taste of the Wild "Ancient Prairie with Ancient Grains": 28lbs $58.99 / $2.11/lb

    And the feed ratios are actually reported to be better on the Pro Plan than the Taste of the wild.

    Contact a vet who's with Purina and considers you a close friend...

    Let's not bring all this math into this conversation. Just like let's not ruin ECUs sports posts with facts. Feed ratios are pretty similar and the ingredients I believe are slightly better in taste of the wild. However, the math is definitely towards the Purina. It is just easier to look at a $60 bag than a $90 bag. I understand you are getting almost double as well in food though.

    Unfortunately all of the vets I know personally have retired and sold their shops to Big Vet. I am at the mercy of Amazon right now. Of course, I am all ears. MG

    You mean, actually be friends with a cat doctor? I suppose you'll suggest we take up playing soccer with dentists next?

    Every vet I know uses Hill's, except Glenn. I dont know what he uses but he hunts with a bow and out of a saddle so I'm sure its some fancy boutique brand

    Serious question. Is one recall enough to make you switch dog food brands completely? Have they not cleaned up the factory and started putting out good dog food again already? Am I stupid for continuing to feed my dogs Victor since they're halfway through a bag and not sick yet?

    I'm doing the same thing. I can't find any info on when they will ship again.
