[QUOTE="donna723, post: 315961, member: 1883"] When figuring out the real cost of dog food you also have to remember that if they get a better food, they will actually eat less of it because their nutritional needs are being met with a smaller volume of food. Mine ordinarily get a premium food that I have to drive 60 miles to buy. Since my car has been messed up and I'm afraid to take any unnecessary chances, I've been giving them Purina Lamb & Rice which is the best I can buy locally till I can get the good stuff. It's pretty good food and probably a lot better than what a lot of dogs get and it doesn't have a lot of the things in it that Ragan is allergic to. It's expensive too but not nearly as costly as the Merrick. But the longer they eat the Purina, the more they eat! They are all eating like [U]little pigs[/U] and pooping up a storm. They're not eating more because they like it, they're eating more because it's not as nutritious as the Merrick and I've found that with them eating so much, I am actually spending MORE feeding them Purina than I was with the $50 a bag Merrick! 'Stang, you may find that you can be giving them a much better quality of food for about the same price you're paying now because they will eat (and poop!) less with a better quality of food.
