Having read all this thread, I have learned a lot, reactions of the dogs seem to be different, but I am reluctant to change to cheaper food except for good reason. The only down side has been, she has tired of it a bit, and to encourage her we have added a little bit of cooked meat to the middle of the bowl, which she eats first with some of the meal, and the remnants we stuff in a Kong with a dash of peanut butter which she loves and finishes. Someone might tell me this is not recommended, but it seems to work!
