My dogs are mad (and hungry) and want to know where their regular food is. One of them has pushed his bowl all over the kitchen looking for his gravied food. I've tried to explain it to them, but they just don't get it!! (LOL!! I'm not really that crazy, but they do keep looking at me like . . . "Fill the bowl with our regular food will ya???")

Evo has the highest percentage of protein out of all the other brands of food.
I had asked my vet about this food. I was told it's OK for healthy cats/dogs that have normal kidney functions. The protein is much too high for cats/dogs that have kidney problems. Your vet should be able to advise you on whether this is a good choice for your pet.

My three cats all like Evo dry but will not touch the canned version. Also a vet on Fox news last night suggested that you NOT feed your pets anything with wheat gluten in it.

I know I'm late to this thread but can someone please help me. Does anyone know any cons to ordering Life's Abundance dog food. It sounds good and I was thinking about ordering a bag. Please, if anyone can shed some light on this option could you help?

Thank you,

jordan

Life's Abundance looks good. My only concern is that one of their products is manufactured by Menu Foods. That doesn't necessarily mean anything because they don't use wheat gluten in their pet foods, but I'm a little hesitant to have anything to do with Menu Foods right now in any way, shape or form.

Here's what I found from the thepetfoodlist.com:

Life's Abundance by Healthy Pet Net (verified by company 3/28/07)
One product manufactured by Menu Foods but not in the suspect facility
Most products are manufactured by Ohio Pet Foods
Products do not contain wheat gluten or corn
All products are human quality

Thank you Gams & fit1.

I've been spending time (like everyone else) checking out different options. I am feeling really crappy after reading about dog food. I thought that I was buying good stuff and now I'm just upset. I am to the point that I just feel like making an extra serving when I cook dinner. I don't know what to do

. Normally, I would just take a step back but my little one has to eat. She is very sensative to changes, so I don't want to experiment too much. I know she is depending on me so I will do my best to make the right choice.

Thanks for letting me vent,

jordan

jordan,

I know just how you feel. I spent 4 hours on the computer yesterday trying to decide if I should switch foods and which one I should switch to. I couldn't help but think that if I do switch, it would be just my luck that something bad would come out about the stuff I switch to. This whole thing makes me very nervous.

Then, after you find a food that you THINK is okay . . . will they eat it? I have one who is pretty particular.
