Dog Food Choice

thanks so much for posting this. i just
switched my gsd from holistic select
about 3 weeks ago because she
stopped eating it. she's now on
wolf king and gobbling it up.
had a long talk with solid gold
yesterday and found out that
all of their ingredients are sourced
from usa including vitamins (except taurine)
also, all of their animals are free range
and hormone and antibiotic free.

Then late last year, Berwind purchased Old Mother Hubbard/Wellness Pet Food. In January, 2009, they announced that the two companies were being merged to form WellPet. The goal is to produce one line of formulas instead of the current two. Last fall Eagle Pack's management team was removed shortly after the purchase of OMH/Wellness. Then the office staff was let go and now sales reps are leaving right and left. Word is that their European Union certification is not going to be renewed and all overseas sales were recently stopped.

As erly as last summer I received several complaints on another board I belong to that flecks of corn were found in some EP Holistic food. At first EP denied it until the question was asked whether they continue to thoroughly clean the extrusion equipment between food runs since some of their cheaper foods contain corn. Also, they already changed their Prism formula by substituting chicken meal with chicken BY-PRODUCT meal.
