| Any experience with Kirkland dog food? Hello all,
I'm new to the forum and have found such great information. After reading some threads about the "junk" food out there such as Iams (which is what my pup is on now) I have been desperately trying to find a much better quality food. Has anyone used Kirkland Signature Chicken, Rice, and Vegetables? I heard it was top rated but wanted to get opinions with all you. The ingredients and such are listed below. I don't mean to stir up a debate like the ones I have read on the boards. I just want my pup to be healthy. Any help is greatly appreciated!
Also, I've been searching for articles about what basic nutrients are required in a dog diet but have had no luck. If anyone can point me in the right direction that would be great
