In trying to find the perfect feed, we have used everything that both Wal Mart, and PetSmart offer. We went to many feed stores, and even tried alternative meats. Though I am not going to say that a year from now I will still feel the same way about this or anything else in our venture we feel that Diamond is the Best food available. The coat, musculature and energy of the dogs attest to that. As many of you know, Diamond had a "problem" with their feed a little while back at this point we tried ProPlan by Purina, NEVER AGAIN. Our dogs lost an inch in width in the chest (muscular atrophy), the eyes suffered and the coat appeared to lose luster. This almost seems impossible for the 3 weeks they were on it, but it happened. For more bulk, though it pales in comparison to Diamond, River Run by Nutrena is our second choice. It beats, hands down, everything EXCEPT diamond.
Alternative but VERY informative feed site
Incomplete dog food rating (don't swear by this) still a good read
Some of these links aren't geared toward everyone, but to those of us who have or still are working in the Veterinary Medical field, your "drug rep" may not always be cheaper. Or convenient....
Medications the vet may give your dog and their uses
I placed these here because we(my wife) had to feed the remaining 2 of 7 from a mother with mastitis. We found these to be very helpful. A must to anyone with problematic births.
Bottle feeding your orphan puppy
Though these are German Shepherds, this was very helpful
These are a couple of links to sites that have given as a wealth of information. Though I have lost the links to many other sites, I feel these will educate all but the most studious of owners and breeders. Though, as I have stated, our views and applied knowledge will change as our acquired knowledge does, this should enable the beginners and novices to begin on a road to ownership armed with the necessary skills to be a confident BetterBulldog Owner.
