What do yall use and why? Right now I uave him on Purina Pro Plan but I uave been told by a couple guys that there are better choices that don't have fillers in them....
"Fillers" Some dogs can't tolerate certain carb sources, but the vast majority do great with a plain corn carb source.
I advise people to find a premium food they can buy anywhere in the country (Iams, Eukanuba, Purina, Royal Canine, Science Diet).
Just feed your dog what you're feeding until you see a problem.

Victor because its a much better food than Pro Plan, less expensive and I can buy it at my local feed and seed store instead of driving at least 20 miles for Pro Plan.
Then take it to the vet and if the vet says this dog cannot handle corn then leave it with the vet to CULL.
robbie i tried about 4 diff foods and finally found one that i like..
Funny you say that. Ive been lured into the natural feeds nowdays myself. Even though Ive treed hundreds of coons and looked just as good as any others doing it on a corn based food. Anyhow. A guy had a dog at our club here while back. I mean a good looking sucker. Beautiful coat just a shining. You could tell he was full of pee and vinegar to. Had been winning all over the place then. I said dern man what you feeding that dog. He says ol roy. I said bull. He said he swore by it. So dogs lived just as long and performed just as good back before all this non corn money grabbing gimmick feed came around.Ole Roy, let 'em eat til they puke.
Quack do not forget the real good stuff. Martha White, Trail Blazer, Sunshine and The great Jim Dandy.Ole Roy, let 'em eat til they puke.
Not the dumbest thing I ever read on here. I did not say kill. I said Cull. Keep it out of your breeding stock if it cannot handle corn. Get rid of it if somebody will take it. Spay or neuter. Some breeders do genetics testing for a lot of things that will likely never happen and a lot of that is minor stuff. But having to feed a dog premium feed all its life because it cannot handle corn is something that ought to be known and declared by breeders Or sellers of older dogs, it should be divulged as a FAULT.SO if a dog cant handle corn, kill it?
That has to be the dumbest thing Ive ever read on here
