dog food

I feed Purina Pro Plan

They have a Breeders program. I feed 7 bags of 37.5 lbs a week (one bag a day) Per bag its $30, but because we joined the PetsMart Club they knock of $5 per bag so that comes to $25 a bag. Then for being a member of the Purina Pro Plans Breeders Club we save the weight seals, more or less that get us another $7 off a bag, so that bring the cost per bag to $18 plus tax.

I buy Diamond Premium (24/20) 50 lb. bags for $18.50 plus tax. Been feeding it for 3 or 4 years and the dogs love it. A 55 lb. dog will do well on 2 1/2 measured cups per day if it is in good health and FREE OF WORMS. Of course, if you are hunting hard in the winter time it will take more.

Just wondering what anyone feeds for dog food out there. I have been feeding Ole Roy from Wal-mart and suplementing with ground flaxseed.The price just jumped four dollars a bag. Does any one know of a good suplement program that could be fed with a cheaper feed? Does anyone make ther own dog food? Thanks for any info.

i once fed ol roy an its ok but beardogs put it all on the line for ya each time loosted too run catch fight-n-bay up/ an tree -up . They also log a lot of hunten country and conditions of emotional distress in their line of work/they have the need too give nothen but try in em just too finish ! alos if they got too rest up an then come back from a long knockdowndragg-out they got too suck-it-up and get back too the turnloose spot . its hard enoughf too find a natural born beardog and his feed an your care for him is awhole lot of what he is and shows inthe woods ! A man that don`t giver his biggame dogs the best dog feed is not much in my book ? Affording too keep a dog the right way is as much value as is for that hunter too make the tree or the bay-up his dogs worked for too get/it could cost em their life and for what cause if the handler an feeder dont pay but half attention too the dog ! id use prohound dog feed an giver that dog a pork shoulder bone with fat-n-grissel an a little meat on it too (i every other week) also I`d give him some raw strip of room temp meat too pull on and fang and chew up befor I hunt him/uya want a dog too know how too fanf a bear and too wanttoo feel it (his teeth too pop in and snagg that bear who needs a little help too go up a tree.were not talken varmitt runnen dogs that get popcorn shucks spred-out alog the dirt rd as ya road em/ those dogs take table scraps an fillers for un the woods hrs as additives too help ther indurance .a bag of popcorn shucks is cheap enoughf as added filler /but it will take the dog down too over time .
