[NAGDU] economical dog food

[Cindy Ray]

Well, I'm buying Iams Senior on a monthly basis for about $60 for 52 pounds,
but I guess that's pretty high. At The Seeing Eye once they said that the
difference between Purena 1 and one of the other premium Purena dog foods
was that the formula was more consistent. Anyway, it is a hard decision.

Thanks to everyone!  I am going to look more closely at the Purina One 
and Pro Plan, Diamond Naturals and the Rachael Ray.    We looked at Pets 
Mart yesterday, just so she could get an idea of what is available.  
I've been ordering dog food for so long, I lost touch with what is available
in the store and how much it costs.  We didn't look at every bag of food
there, but there wasn't anything she could afford long term. 
$70 for a 20 pound bag of dog food  is kind of steep IMO.

I get that you get what you pay for and feeding a quality food prevents
serious medical problems, but perhaps the dog food industry has gone a
little nutters.  You could easily spend more money on dog food than you 
spend for food for yourself.   I can't in good conscience recommend Old 
Roy to her, but neither can I suggest something that will mean she's eating
Ramen noodles breakfast lunch and supper.

I'll see what I can find, give her the information and she can go from 
there.   Thanks to everyone for the ideas!
Julie
