Re: Fellow dog owners - what food do you feed?
There is no one food that works for all dogs and cats. The vets I work for preach that all the time. Just because we choose to feed our animals science diet, does not mean I believe all dogs and cats should eat it. My pets do well and thrive with adult SD healthy advantage. Although my coworkers pets got very itchy with it, she switched to nutro, I think. Her pets do well with it. All pets are different just like all people are different. One of the biggest reasons we carry SD is because of the prescription diets. But we also carry a few other brands of rx foods to match SD. For example, to match SD I/d diet, we also carry purina EN. Both do basically the same thing, some pets just do better on one over the other.

I feed my Alaskan Malamute 4Health Performance Formula Adult dry food. Occasionally he gets raw ground meat or chicken livers/hearts/gizzards. I'd feed him a complete raw diet or whole prey diet... but at the moment I can't afford to feed a raw diet to a small horse...
My chihuahua gets 4Health Small Bites adult dry food. He spends the day down at my mother's house usually, so he also gets whatever she feeds him (table scraps). He's a vegetable eating dog... He loves cooked veggies, but meat makes him vomit unless its small amounts of chicken.
1 Husband, 1 Western Hognose Snake (male), 2 ferrets (2 females), 1 male jungle leopard gecko, 4 gerbils (2 females & 2 males), 1 male dwarf rabbit, 3 guinea pigs (1 male, 1 female and 1 female skinny pig), 2 American parakeets, 2 cats (male bobcat hybrid and a male Egyptian Mau mix), and 2 dogs (female Mini Dachshund and a female Alaskan Malamute).

I started off feeding my fur babies Blue Buffalo, but found out that there was too much protein for my shepherd/heeler mix so we wound up switching to purina pro plan (salmon formula). No more excessive stinkyness and dogs are happy and healthy.

Weird. My Heeler does best on the highest protein formula I can find. His earlier stinkyness came from poultry allergies, and when I tried other options, he went from 44lbs to 35lbs. He needed something with the protein to get his weight up, and keep it up.

Part of her stinkyness came from poultry allergies as well, which is why we only feed salmon or lamb foods. However, she was having protein in her urine, so the vet had us reduce the amount of protein in her food. She actually put on weight when we switched. Maybe the German shepherd in her....

What do you feed?
Surely I'm not the only one who is wanting to feed the highest quality food possible.
