This is from a subscription I get from Whole Dog Journal. They describe what it is they like about it. (I agree with everything they say after much research) And describe it all succinctly. So it doesn't take long to go through the list.

I've been switching around between Victor and Instinct. (I think the Instinct I've used is not the one they show, but something like ultra or ultimate protein. Anyhow, one that does not have peas. If they'd show what percentage is peas I might buy one like that but since they don't say, I just steer clear and go for the foods with lots of protein from meat.

Of course, this is just one collective opinion from one source. But I do like to see protein from animal sources, not legumes, peas, pulses etc. At least not where they're relying on those things for a good deal of the protein. I like probiotics added and some of the other supplements that some of these foods have.

I also feed Victor, both the select high energy and the all life stage. And they get Instinct raw boost mixers both as treats and I sometimes add a little to the food. Renn also gets a tablespoon of Purina pro plan canned, just to mix up the flavor.

Sounds good Murfar. I also sometimes add a little canned Merrick. It has one type of various flavors that is 96% protein from meat, which I like to give.

Instinct is a really good food. I haven't tried the topper things though because I just give them other toppers a few times a week like eggs, sardines, some meat if I have it...just plain like chicken from the night before or whatever. But I bet toppers you give make really good treats. yum yum. :hungry:

We feed Victor to our active Lab and our toy poodle gets Farmina in the morning and Answers Raw in evening.
