    Anyone here feed any of these kibbles or tried them? I been feeding TOTW for awhile and the dogs are healthy and happy but i have access to these kibbles here, all the different brands for pretty cheap. I know Blue ain't the best shit but what about the other kibble?

    Also that Extreme Fuel, is that a good mix for a working dog? Like the Protein and Fat %?

    We don't have this brand in my country, but if you read what's listed on the bag , then it's sounds good.

    But that isn't enough, so you can read It for your self
    See link:

    Btw I give my dogs Acana Sport & Agility, a little big higher in protein and fat %

    Not all the ingredients in red are bad, but they're contrversial bc they don't have nutrician value and used as fillers and/or as an (cheap) proteine source.


    Only the menadione blabla is very controversial, still It's a 4 star rating dogfood, without the menadione Dogfoodadvisor will give a higher rating.


    Btw Acana heritage sport & agility have also 2 ingredients in red ink and have a 5 star rating:

    I don't understand why somebody above said it's not good. Ingredients sound decent. I'd feed it as long as price and results were good.

    I fed the blue a year or so ago. It wasn't bad, just expensive here. I feed Diamond Naturals and all the dogs here pups included do well on it. I fed TOTW for years before and loved it. As the yard got bigger that price tag was really hurting and I always had to switch brands in the winter because the dogs stayed real lean on it. I don't switch anymore, just the naturals chicken or natural lamb and rice. Give one a try, might not notice a difference except in what you save. You'll know by their shit if it's junk and the amount you have to feed compared to TOTW. Honestly though, I liked TOTW so much that if you can afford to feed it as a main diet, Do it. If the wheel ain't broken don't fix it.

    Those ingredients in the red had me a little concerned also.

    AGK, i totally thought i was under feeding so i went back to free feeding during the winter and sure enough, neither of my dogs got fatter, now i see you experienced the same thing with TOTW. Broly has gained maybe 3 pounds tops over the winter but i am guessing that is due to not working or doing much, on top of him just maturing and gaining more mass. It's obvious to me as i see him everyday that his tuck is slightly lower and he has gained a few pounds.

    I went ahead and started them on the Holistic Fish formula, i have found over the last couple years that their weight doesn't fluctuate much while on the fish formulas and it's really easy to take a few pounds off just by simply working them, even moderate work seems to pull the weight off Broly, could be his genetics to but it's pretty easy to adjust his kibble intake and get him together quite quickly. My bitch is funny with kibble, i fed Blue for year or so and she did fine on it but i have found the TOTW to be a little better, better coat, skin and just overall health.

    Guess i will be on poop watch for the next few days, see how they do. If they don't do well, i will go back to the TOTW but i can get any of those kibbles above for $20 a bag, not trying to penny pinch or anything but i may have another pup here this spring and probably another one next spring lol. These damn dogs are like potato chips, you can't have just one or two lol.

    Well that's a cheap price for a good quality kibble pitbulldOgs, I'm now thinking to change for another brand.
    It isn't the same quality as Acana, but still high in proteine & fat.
    First I payed for a 40Lbs bag €56 (+/- $60) now they raised their prices (in 6 months) to €73 (+/- $79) for the same bag.

    Also I've 2 dogs Jojo (profile pic) and Lola pic below

    I know it's a small pic but that dog in your avatar looks a lot like my boy Broly. Does JoJo have a white patch on his chest?

    As for feed, i am going to give it a try, i don't technically need to change kibble but i am paying for one bag of TOTW at around the same price i can get two bags of this other kibble (through my distributor), not to mention the guy who dropped off those bags of kibble will deliver to the shop so i that is convenient too..

    lol Which ingredients has folks concerned? The rice bran, brewers dried yeast or dried beet pulp? Possibly the canola oil? lol .... None of those sound bad at all. Sounds a lot better than the shit they eat in their chain spot on a daily I'm sure haha.

    Again, I don't feed that food but if it was at a good price I would sure as shit give it a try.
