Farmina N&D Ancestral Grain Chicken & Pomegranate Medium & Maxi Adult Dry Dog Food, 5.5-lb bag

I feel great about feeding this to my dogs. Yes, it’s more expensive, but how much are vet bills? How much is it worth to keep your dog healthy. This company has never ever had one recall since it’s been in business over 50 years. That is saying a lot. One of the very top selling dog foods is cheap and starts with the letter P****a has a whole Facebook page dedicating to it. P****a Pet food is still killing or sickening dogs and cats. No thank you. I am quite happy with Farmina.

As a dog lover as well as a former breeder of Pembroke Welsh Corgis, I am very particular about what I feed my Corgis while also working within a budget. When I began raising Corgis, I did a lot of research on dog’s, their ancestral diet, what they need in their diet as well as what they should not have in their diet. I researched The Association of American Feed Control Officials recommendations are. What AAFCO recommends is the minimum of what any animal feed should have. I do not want the minimum - I want what is best for them. Hans just turned 7 years old and Ady will be 8 years old a a couple months. I watch their weight closely. I pay close attention to their hair coat, energy level, etc. to make sure they are getting proper nutrients. They have maintained a glossy, soft hair coat and everything else that I monitor with the change to Farmina. I made the change from a Merrick dog food about 4 months ago when I learned about Farmina N&D Ancestral Grain Chicken & Pomegranate Dog Food. Not that I any major complaints about the Merrick feed I had them on, but they had made some slight changes that I would have preferred they had not made. I was simply more impressed by Farmina. I read through Farmina’s website, saw their dedication to dogs (& cats) as well as quality ingredients. The cost difference was only 4 cents a pound more. I look at everything from protein and fat content and all ingredients. While I am not against all grains, I am against some grains being in my dogs’ feed. I don’t want corn, corn meal, or anything corn in my dogs’ feed. Nor do I want wheat, soy and white rice in it. I want to see certain things in the first five ingredients, with meat being number 1, preferably in the top 2 or 3 ingredients. Since ingredients are listed according to the amount that is in it, growing from highest to lowest, those first 5 ingredients are going to provide the bulk of the quality in the feed. I also avoid by-products as the source (which can be multiple sources) and quality is often questionable. By-products also tend to overly processed. “By-products” and “meal” are not the same thing. Meal is typically a single source and higher quality. Farmina meets or excesses what I look for in feed for Ady and Hans.

My dogs like this food, and I like having it delivered at a fair price!
