Abady dog food?

Does anyone know if this is a good dog food? I picked up some info on it recently from pet food store. It is made in Poughkeepsie, NY.

What are the ingrediants? In order...............never mind, I found the web site;

Poultry by-product Meal, Cornmeal, Menhaden Fish Meal, Kibbled Yellow Corn Chunks, Corn Oil, Flaked Rice, Beef Fat, Meat Meal, Di-calcium Phosphate, Potassium Chloride, Salt,(sodium chloride), Flaxseed Oil, Lamb & Mutton Meal, Undefatted Beef Liver, Whey Protein Concentrate, Choline Chloride, d-Alpha Tocopherol Acetate (source of natural Vitamin E) Zinc oxide, Vitamin A Acetate, Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C) Manganese Sulfate, Niacinamide, D-Calcium-Pantothenate, Inositol, Para-Aminobenzoic Acid, Ergocalciferol (source of Vitamin D3, Cupric Oxide, Potassium Iodide, Riboflavin, Menadione Sodium Bisulfite (source of Vitamin K), Thiamine Hydrochloride, Sodium Selenite, Folic Acid, Chromium, Biotin, Cyanocobalamin Concentrate (source of Vitamin B12)

Doesn't look too good to me. Lots of corn, real meat is 8th on the list.

Looking at those ingredients, I wouldn't feed that to a dog.

Have you searched here? Seems we just had a thread........

Robert Abady has been around a long time, and has lots of loyal followers. I think his products are "okay" for specific purposes, but I would never feed them all the time.

Did you get info on the kibble or the granulated?

There was a recent thread over this, do a search and you should find it. Abady doesn't look good to me. Way too much corn and fillers....Yuck!! :)

thanks; I'll look for the thread. The written material I picked up contains info on both types of food. There is alot of technical info, which I have not had a chance to digest (pardon the pun). Not sure if it is legit or psuedo science. WIll look at thread for more opinions.
