raw foods: USDA-approved ingredients, that is. I'm trying to look for a type of kibble that isn't as bad as the normal stuff (which is basically made of grain that can't be used for human food like cereal and meat that can't be sold to humans even in hot dogs) to go along with a mixture of leftovers and raw foods.|||http://www.dogfoodanalysis.com/dog_food_鈥?/a> Try that website, but stick with the 6 and 5 star foods. They're all great quality. Orijen is listed as a 6 Star, as well as Innova EVO and Taste of the Wild. All three are great, but somewhat pricy. If none of them work for you, I'd suggest Canidae. Its a 5 star, but I've found TOTW to be cheaper (and better xD) Good luck!|||That website is misleading to the extreme, because it is nothing more than a reflection of personal opinions with absolutely no scientific data. Report Abuse |||I've heard Bark at the moon by Solid Gold is about the best dog food you can get :) I will warn you it is VERY expensive.|||here in canada there is a food called orijen-not sure if it is available in the states, but my best friend feeds it to her 2 dogs and they are the healthiest they've ever been!|||Pick up a copy of Dog World Magazine or Dog Fancy magazine and you'll most likely find plenty of ads for the pet foods you seek. Virtually any pet or feed store can assist you, too.|||Pretty much everything in the 5 and 6 star categories here will be made with human grade ingredients and is of excellent quality: http://www.dogfoodanalysis.com/|||Look for the AFFco statement on the bag. Affco is a set of standards that are held to dog food preparation. The USDA does not regulate the production of dog/cat food or the FDA. Say if some chicken were dropped on the floor, they could still pick it up and use it without getting in trouble.|||IVD, Pinnacle, Innova, California Natural, Wellness, Canidae, Royal Canin are all brands we've fed to our dogs. They all are high-end brands, with high-quality, human grade ingredients. I've also heard good things about Blue Buffalo, Timberwolf, and Mother Hubbard, though I have not fed them to my dogs.|||First find out what the nutritional needs of your dog actually are, then determine what needs are being met by the leftovers and raw foods. Then and only then can you determine what needs to be added through the use of a prepared dog food to make a proper balanced diet. Understand tho' that it is very easy to overfeed using this method of feeding. "Also, maximum levels of intake of some nutrients have been established for the first time, because of concern that OVERNUTRITION, RATHER THAN UNDERNUTRITION, is a bigger problem with many pet foods today." Federal Food and Drug Administration Center for Veterinary Medicine|||Like other folks answered, the 5- and 6-star foods on http://www.dogfoodanalysis.com are all great foods. The best bang for the buck I've found is Taste of the Wild. Foods of similar quality like Orijen and Wellness cost about $2/pound, but Taste of the Wild costs $1.50/pound. Crappy foods like Purina Beneful are about $1/pound. I buy ToTW at Tractor Supply.|||Most organic food is human grade You can usually find some at a vet or pet stores.
