After finding out that my dogs favorite treats(chicken jerky treats) were made in china, and contain the same ingredients as the foods recalled earlier this yr, I decided to look into his main diet. Needless to say, I was disappointed with my findings. He's been on iams since a pup, but after researching dog foods made in USA, i've started him on Natural Balance Premium, owned Dick Van Patton no less. I found sites like this one helpful.

Luke will be 7 next week and hopefully with me for quite some time still. The last elkhound i had as a boy lived to 13 with much less attention on diet.
