Our dogs are 10 - 12 years old and very healthy. They eat Alpo Prime Cuts and love it.

I'm a veterinary technician at a local pet clinic. Maybe I can help! I recommend feeding your dogs homemade foods. Sweet potatoes, chicken, and rice are very heatlhy for dogs. I recommend going to walmart and buying a huge bag of those chicken wings/legs for 5 bucks and baking them in the oven with the sweet potatoes and rice. When its done cooking though, take the chicken off the bones. Chicken bones are bad for dogs. And give each dog a bowl-ful of the mixed ingredients once a day. Not only is this pretty cheap, but it will keep your dogs coat shinier, less shedding, less hunger, and you can save the cooked chicken up to 3 days in the fridge. Or, if you don't want to do this...the best brands are Science Diet (expensive but very healthy) or Purina One (10 lb bag $16.00) and its pretty healthy. Good luck!

Natural Balance is great. Also, Purina One. It's not a premium food but my coworker feeds it to her dogs and now recommends it to everyone. Her one dog has horrible allergies and has been doing great on this food. Her other dog is a picky eater and this is the only food he likes to eat.

I have a mix chow and german sheperd. He is six months old. I feed him Natural Choice he has a healthy skin and shiny coat.People alway asked me how do I get his fur to shine.Its his food.For twenty pound bag it cost 24.99 of course they have smaller bag.they have dry food and wet food.I give him dry food. For older dog they have Ultra and Max for adult.I shop at petsmart or I go to the pet wharehouse.I cannot find this food at a grocery certain stores only sell this food. they also put out for the dogs treats bones and other items in their brand name ata costly price.Its well worth it. Good Luck
