I raise Golden Retrievers and usually wean the puppies on IAMs Lg Breed Puppy food.?

I am a trainer and I also work in a pet store. Iams, Eukanuba andTechnical where all very good feed in their time. All these companies have sinced changed ownership at least twice. In the change overs the feed quality has gone down and is now below par with higher quality feed. Read the list of ingredients on the feed. If fillers are listed as the top ingredients don't buy it.

Ay! Iams isn't a very good food, actually, and you could even do better than Nutro. I'd suggest going with Canidae. It's the best quality for your money.

I don't like Iams personally and would suggest changing foods.

Definitely switch. You will see such a difference in their coats. Quality food=quality coats. It's like you going from Suave shampoo to Paul Mitchell.

personally, i always fed my English Cocker Spaniel Innova, because it has the minimun number of ingredients, like turkey meal, barley, carrots and other healthy ingredients. i would say its much better quallity food than anything else on the market. My best friend fed her dog Nutro Puppy before the pet food scare but she has now switched to Innova, and our dogs just love it

I'd suggest that you go check the ingredient lists for both foods and compare.

Here's a good article on selecting a food.

I recommend a perscription diet sold at your local vets office.
