With dog food the 'you get what you pay for' is not so applicable. Due to the competition i think a lot depends on whether the manufacturer has their own processing equipment. Arden Grange and Burns i think use a firm for manufacture and so costs are much higher. Pet shops stock what'll bring in the better profit. Also the range is so vast they can't stock all. Of the kibble food i like the muesli mix and dogs do seem to love it.
But then again if something like Burns is 55% rice... i don't see that it is better than me cooking rice on the stove and adding meat and vitamins.
