What brand of kibble are you feed ing your hunting dog? Price per pound?

I feed my lab Acana and rotate through the bags for variety of nutrients that might be lacking in feeding the same thing forever. Had her on nutro but her coat wasn't shiny and she wasn't putting on weight as a puppy feeding double the recommended, shes 55 pounds of pure muscle and energy now. Acana is more expensive yes, but her coat, muscles and energy levels are off the charts. We train every day and she still wants more. I feed her 1.5 cups twice a day, she has no fat on her but you can see every muscle group on her and her energy is high. I give her a beef marrow bone to add some fat to her diet but cant get any more squish to her shes just too active. She doesn't have the lab eat everything drive, I can leave my steak dinner in front of her and she wont touch it as she has never had a taste of human food ever and never ever will. She eats her Acana food and loves it, loves her treats but wasnt fond of nutro or another cheaper brand I had when I ran out at a friends.

Ive heard the costco is good food sure, will it be good, most likely. I choose acana becuase I know where the ingredients are coming from and its support for local Canadian economies and farmers, Canada is something I support in my daily economic habits so why not include that in my dog food choice.

I fed acana for years. I now feed Purina sport. There is lots of fairly new science coming out regarding heart disease ( taurine deficiency- DCM) in larger breed dogs that are on grain free diets and acana is by far the #1 fed dog food in these cases. I would consider switching.

Here is link, there are many out there.
