Whole Dog Journal's Top Ten Dry Dog Food
Note that WDJ states: "We do not conduct either feeding trials or laboratory tests on the foods. We selected our favorites by conducting a thorough label review, and holding this data up to the criteria listed in the "Foods Should Contain" and "Foods Should Not Contain" boxes
"We have not seen every dog food on the market. New foods emerge on a monthly basis, some are available on a regional scale only. We've tried to list foods that are good examples of the kinds of foods you should be looking for."
Quality Foods Should Contain:
Superior sources of protein, either whole fresh meats or single source meat meal (ex. chicken meal rather than poultry meal)
A whole-meat source as one of the first two ingredients.
Whole, unprocessed grains, vegetables, and other foods. Nutrients and enzymes are more likely to be found in unprocessed foods.
Quality foods should contain a MINIMUM of the following:
Food fragments - lower-cost by-products of another food manufacturing process, such as brewer's rice and wheat bran...Manufacturers usually include at least one fragment to help lower costs. Beware any food that includes several fragments.
Meat by-products (not handled as carefully as whole meat) - any food that contains meat by-products as the MAJOR protein source indicates a low-quality product.
HIGH-QUALITY FOODS SHOULD NOT CONTAIN:
Fats or proteins named generically (ex. animal fat/poultry fat instead of beef fat/ lamb meal)
Artificial preservatives (BHA, BHT, ethoxyquin)
Artificial colors.
Sweeteners (corn syrup, sucrose, ammoniated glycyrrhizin) to improve unappealing food
Propylene glycol - a toxic substance when consumed in large amounts; added to some "chewy" foods to keep them moist.
******* the underlined products I have used personaly and had good results.
Timberwolf Organics and Premium Edge are what I feed now.
--Azmira Tucson, AZ 8% "...uses many herbs, chelated minerals, extra vit. C; combination of beef and fish is nice."
--Back to Basics Beowulf Natural Feeds
Syracuse, NY19% "Human grade & hormone-free ingredients. Delivered fresh from manufacturer....Very high fat content (19%) reflects company owner's philosophy that more fat is good for dogs. Also offers a pork-based formula."
--Best In Show Power Food Jupiter, FL 15% "We love seeing two meats in the top two places; also makes a super-high protein formula and a lower-fat version."
--Canidae San Luis Obispo, CA 14.5% "Three major proteins in the top five ingredients: that's a good food!"
--Eagle Pack Holistic Select Mishawaka, IN 15% "Not all Eagle products are this nice; the Holistic line is their best; inclusion of any organic ingredients is a nice touch."
--Flint River Dry Water Riverside, CA 10% "Intends water to be added. Sold by independents and shipped direct."
--Natural Balance Ultra Premium Pacoima, CA 13% "Three proteins in top four ingredients. Worth the effort to find."
--Pinnacle (Breeder's Choice) Irwindale, CA 15% "Like Eagle's food, this food is the best offering from Breeder's Choice. We'd prefer they use whole veggies. Still, nice food."
--Prime Life Oxford, CT 16% "Two proteins in top two spots. All grains ground whole. "We don't like seeing "flavors" even if they "natural."
--Solid Gold El Cajon, CA 12% "Does not use animal fats, only healthiest oils. This formula also lacks foods many dogs are intolerant of/allergic to."

--Timberwolf Organics Center Hill, FL 18% "Newish company, great products. Maker ships fresh."
