Chicken meal is #1 ingredient on the list, how do you know HOW MUCH is actually in the food?? YOu can't say it is less than canidae just because there is corn meal in the list of ingredients. For filler/fiber corn is actually a good choice, cuz it has some (very little) protein. Canidae has white rice as #4 ingredient. I question the nutritional value of white rice. No protein, all starchy carbohydrate.

I agree, that BARF is probably the best diet for most dogs...I cannot at this time be feeding just BARF. I live in the middle of no-where and do not have a good steady, well priced supply of meats. If I get into town to the A&P...I clean up the shelves in the meat department of all chicken necks, backs, heart, etc. I also have a customer that brings me tripe....the dogs just love it.

YAY HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO OUR DOGS!! well, exactly 7 mos. ALthough, it's been about amonth since I weighed him, I don't know exactly what he's weighing in at now....
I only feed raw once or twice a week, and I DO adjust his kibble, only a little bit. Also, if i were to do raw, I would not feed whole bones/backs whatever. I already know he can't digest bone, pukes it back up. They wouldn't get the goodness from bone unless it was ground up. I would have my butcher ground up all that with meat.
Anyways, I have done my research, utilized opinions of an in school homeopathic (soon to be) DR, which is currently a nutritionist who worked for a few years in a homeopathic clinic. Tired of having to prove the quality. Just because you've never heard of it, does not mean it is inferior food. (not you, just people in general. This food is not available in any stores. Fairly new company.)
