HuskyGuerl Posted December 14, 2012 Report Share Posted December 14, 2012 Okay I want to switch my dogs off of Ol'Roy for some reason im getting a since of not likeing it. Ive read some reviews on it and they have only been on it since August. I use to have them on Royal Canin but they no longer sell the siberian husky breed. I live in the United States In Missouri and alot of stuff is not as available here as in other places. What would be the best brand to switch to?? Thanks : ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elyse Posted December 14, 2012 Report Share Posted December 14, 2012 I feed my boy Taste of the Wild. It's made in the USA, so it should be readily available where you are. Another great brand is Acana, although seeing as its Canadian-made, it might be rarer down there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay Posted December 14, 2012 Report Share Posted December 14, 2012 I second Taste of the Wild. I switched both mine to that and they are doing really well on it. I use the high prairie formula. They used to be on Wellness food but it seemed Nikko was loosing interest in it, and it gave Yukon the runs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Celestial Echo Posted December 14, 2012 Report Share Posted December 14, 2012 I feed Echo EVO. She was on TOTW for 2 years though, and did well on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LittleLuka Posted December 14, 2012 Report Share Posted December 14, 2012 i fed Luka TOTW but he didn't do well on it so i switched him to Fromms. However, now that he is soon to be off puppy food i'm going to give it another try. It's a great food. I wish i could afford Orijens though, it's VERY good.

Mazz Posted December 14, 2012 Report Share Posted December 14, 2012 My gosh, TOTW is headquartered in Missouri, so it should be readily available. Probably won't find it in grocery stores, but feed stores, fleet or farm stores often carry it. Some independent pet supply stores may also carry it. It is an excellent food, though some individual dogs do have issues with it, but that can be said for almost every commercial dog food. The thing I like about the company, is if you have a problem with the food, or your dog has an issue with the food, you give them a call and ask to speak with their staff veterinarian, and if not available, she will call you back. That's service in my book. Another very good brand of dog food to look at is Merrick. It is, however, rather expensive and rather limited in availability.

frankmayfield Posted December 15, 2012 Report Share Posted December 15, 2012 I have always fed TOTW. You can buy it off Amazon. It has free shipping, and it was about $46 a couple of months back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Osinn11 Posted December 15, 2012 Report Share Posted December 15, 2012 TOTW for us too! We buy it at a local ranch style store. Runs about $50 per 30lb. bag Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HuskyMom09 Posted December 15, 2012 Report Share Posted December 15, 2012 I feed my whole kennel TOTW as well, Salmon in the summer months where the caloric demands are lower and Bison/Venison formula when we are under higher caloric demands. I can't say enough about this food, we love it! It keeps my dogs in top condition whether we're showing or sledding or just being lazy couch dogs!

Elyse Posted December 15, 2012 Report Share Posted December 15, 2012 Another very good brand of dog food to look at is Merrick. It is, however, rather expensive and rather limited in availability. Suka didn't like Merrick, I've tried all the flavours, and nope. He would only eat it with wet food mixed in (man, was THAT annoying to do!) But, when I bought TOTW 6 months later (I had bought 2 huge bags of the stuff, I was stupid back then!), he couldn't stop smelling the bag! If you can, I would bring your dog with you shopping. Let him smell the bags, and when he lingers on one, check it out. Look at the ingredients list (first 3 or so ingredients should be meat...and preferably no grains in it at all cause husky stomachs are usually sensitive). If the ingredients list sucks, move along the isle until he stops at another one. Repeat the process until he finds one that he likes, and its a good quality one. That way, you'll know what food he'll most likely go for. Some dogs I know of won't even eat TOTW or Acana, the 2 most expensive brands around here.

joshmp5 Posted December 15, 2012 Report Share Posted December 15, 2012 hey hey, i'm in Kansas City! We use Taste of the wild as well. it's great in my opinion! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HuskyGuerl Posted December 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 15, 2012 We found taste of the wild near us and we are going to give it a try for both the puppies and adults..Thanks everyone :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay Posted December 17, 2012 Report Share Posted December 17, 2012 We found taste of the wild near us and we are going to give it a try for both the puppies and adults..Thanks everyone :-) I've had good luck with it, I even put Yukon on the all life stages since he was 4 months old and he has done great on it. You can usually find some good deals online too if you search for them. Most places give you a 10% discount if your a first time buyer and you opt for the scheduled deliveries.

Gideon Cross Posted December 28, 2012 Report Share Posted December 28, 2012 Since yo fed them Ol Roy which is the Walmart brand, try getting them exeed lamb and rice or chicken and rice in Sam's club if you have one near you. It's not top notch but it's good for the price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gideon Cross Posted December 28, 2012 Report Share Posted December 28, 2012 You can also just start cooking for the dogs like some people do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samiol12 Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 So, what’s the best dog food? This is probably the single most pressing question on every dog owner’s mind. but I think home dog food is best for our dog health and fitness. so if any one have best home made dog food recipe then share with nice patronage.

DuramaxDiesel Posted January 19, 2013 Report Share Posted January 19, 2013 I feed Taste of the Wild, too. I am able to get it for $39 a 30 lb bag at our local Farm Store. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ICE & SHADOW Posted January 19, 2013 Report Share Posted January 19, 2013 EVO http://www.evopet.com/products More expensive that TOTW (US-$60.00 for a 28lb bag). I've tried the TOTW, but they liked EVO better and they don't eat every day, so a bag last me close to 4 weeks. I would say as long as it's grain free and good quality, you can't go wrong.

True but my pup couldn't eat grain free so we have been feeding fromms which only has rice and oatmeal. Hes 10 months and as soon as he's a year I plan on trying grain free again. He loves evos treats so maybe I should try that instead of totw again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keanu Posted February 26, 2013 Report Share Posted February 26, 2013 I switched my pup from Royal Canin to TOTW. She is doing well so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
