Orijen (which is what I have for emergencies and use for training) Acana Canagan Fish4Dogs Purizon Lukullus Taste of the Wild (although they have had a lot of recalls) Nutrivet Arden Grange Fish and Potato Happy dog Applaws You do not include Eden. Any particular reason why not? I imagine that as you don't, there may well be! We await your words of wisdom with eager anticipation!

The only one of the foods SB has said that I haven't heard of before is Happy dog - the rest I've at least heard of or at the very least seen in an advert!

I highly recommend you look into getting Lukullus, if you intend to feed kibble. Monty and Woody absolutely adore it and its been the best decision we ever made for them food-wise It worked out cheaper than most high street brands because you need to feed considerably less of it

Did the whichdogfood website once you put in all your info on Earls size, age and your budget help at all with the list of foods you can afford and are good quality?
My tip is think high meat, low carbohydrate, grain free if possible
My list of dry foods :-
What I have fed Orijen Acana Applaws
I have considered but have not tried Eden Fishmongers

Our dogs have had Applaws & Acana and I have to say, if you are going to feed your dog dry food, then they are very good. Holly approves! (Thats what she's eating at the moment!)

wow multiple posts BT lol
If you look at the search that has come up on the right hand side there is a price per day. This may help with decision as though some bags cost a lot the feeding amounts are low so bag is actually cost effective.
You just need to look at each of the foods listed, I would concentrate on the ones they put as 1,2 and 3 (sometimes there are multiple options i.e 3 no 1 and 4 no 2 etc)and see if you think any of them will suit.
The website highlights any ingredients which are questionable (in red) on the food pages. If you press on the ingredients it will tell you what the terminology means. Anything blue or red is a link.
Some of your list are wet food and some are raw are you considering taking Earl off dry?

Forgot to put on last post that though one of these foods may be good for my mutts does not mean it will suit Earl!!
My list is on a previous post of what I have used and which I deem to be good (Orijen, Acana, Applaws). I note that many of smokeybears list are on the list the website recommends so why not search through those.
