I found this dog food called Profile, its very expansive and has no additives, its preserved in Vitamin E and is made with no chemiclas but all natural flavours and herbs and spices. Will this be a good dog food for an Aussie I might be getting in September? Is Iams better? My sheltie is on Iams, but he is not as big as an aussie will get and i feed my sheltie a lot of table scraps (the healthy ones, not like chicken bones or whatever).

Hello Everyone! As some may know, my cats, Binnie and Marble eat a half canned/half raw diet. I normally feed raw in the morning, canned in the afternoon and one of those 2 at night and leave a small handful of dry for overnight, approx. 20-30 pieces. I like to keep dry available for the times when I’m gone overnight or am out of town for business. I have ABSOLUTELY no one to come feed my cats for these times, so I leave dry for them. Plus, I’m not gone that long, no more than 2 days, so no one really needs to come feed them anyway. So to my question, I’m looking for the highest quality of the lowest quality choice, dry food. I ran across Blue Wilderness and it’s seems pretty good, but I noticed all of those MEALS behind the meat words and wondered if that’s really okay. The Blue Company worker of course, said there’s nothing wrong with the word meal. I really don’t see the need for oatmeal, potatoes, cranberries and blueberries but all of the high quality dry comes with some type of veggies/fruits so there’s really no way to get around it. But it’s not that many so I won’t complain too much.

Thanks everyone for the answers. Unfortunately, Percy, I don’t have anyone to watch or check on them. I moved out of town for my job so my family is in another state. And I don’t know my neighbors nor do I trust anyone with having a key to my home and going in to check on my animals. My cats will be alright. It’s not often that I’m gone for 2 whole days but it does happen. Thanks for the suggestion!

I had a betta fish, which died after two years, then just got two so called mollies, but the larger killed the smaller(appears to have been a black and dalmation) the dalmation was the one who died, I was wondering if it were possible for the black to be a betta, instead of a molly or are mollies in the beta family as well…and the betta food can it be feed to the molly fish now?

ok, so I feed my dog raw meat occasionally (like im talking a lamb shank every few weeks or mixing some lamb kidney in with her biccies) and i get scolded for it, people telling me it’s not healthy for them, or it makes them vicious… and when i feed them dog food i get scolded because commercial pet food is over processed and tainted with toxins, which are used to preserve the food and to give it an attractive smell and taste.
My nan’s Chihuahua is turning 17, which is longer then it’s life expectancy. she’s always fed him raw meats.
Dog in the wild eat raw meat, it is there diet.
can anyone give me hard facts that prove to me good or bad. I just want to know, and make sure i am feeding my dogs the healthiest food possible.
My dog isn’t the chihuahua, as i said, thats my nan’s dog. i have two bullies. yeah i heard that about the beef having tape worms… it’s normally just lamb shanks, and organs like lamb kidneys or livers and marrow bones if they are lucky. other wise they get those dog polony rolls.
