Indeed they do. He LOVES the food, that and the Dick Van Patten stuff. The puppy kibble in both is considerably smaller than the Science Diet or Iams and is much better for training treats too. Its interesting how much more excited he gets for the better food. In fact yesterday my in-laws stopped by with some organic treats, they're mostly apple and rice. He goes nuts for them. They smell strongly of apple, so good I've come very close to trying them myself... "Chicken fat" is the ingredient that keeps me back...

(i grew up in queens, but everything was purchased in our neighborhood from our neighbors, in our "home town". the dry cleaner was an old german, montag, who lived across the street. our grocer was a jew from north africa who went by 'jack" who also lived across the street and mostly spoke a language he said was "ladino" but we couldn't care less as he had two very hot daughters who were a lot more interesting to us than "ladino" and its history. and my friendly mailman, "joe", who i learned later was actually "jose" but back in the 60s and 70s, jose went by joe, who knew EVERYONE in our zip code by name and address) that world is totally dead. now we buy chinese junk at walmart where the staff turns over monthly and no one has any idea who you are. are we better off today? i guess as it is the world we have chosen, but sometimes you kinda miss the old downtown and that way of life, no? i believe aubuchon owns hardware.com. the plan is good as long as the dog likes and does well on the food.

So on the dog food front we stopped at the hardware store today (Aubuchon, does everybody have those?). They've moved alot into things other than just hardware and I noticed they had pet food. In that section we found Merrick which turns out to be a 5 star food. Its not quite twice as expensive as Science diet (1 star garbage) but quality food is important, especially as he's still quite young. Anyway I've found as Gary says a food I can believe in, found it locally from a locally owned business thats been based in our area for 100 years. I can feel good about that. -Curt _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com For new parts see official list sponsor: http://www.buymbparts.com/ For used parts email [EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com For new parts see official list sponsor: http://www.buymbparts.com/ For used parts email [EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
