I don't know if to trust them anymore! They shouldve done a recall on the affected batches of food and when i called them they didn't even mention that. They said she would be fine if she ate one of the SHARP bones because that is what they would eat in the wild and not to worry!!! How could a sharp bone be safe for a puppies intestines? I can't see how it could be.. so i am off it

Also, remember that this is a COOKED bone ( never safe), not a raw bone !!!! Also, read up on some of the other puppy food threads.... I believe that many have their dogs off puppy food by 6 months and many don't use large/giant breed foods for goldens. Some of our breeders would be a good source to look to in this topic.

And still no acknowledgment of this 'mistake' on their website either... yet another broken promise in a string of lies? hmmmm... I think I'm beginning to detect a pattern of behavior with the company management.

My personal, gut feeling would be to go with the Innova adult ( or Canidae ALS, Eagle Pack Holistic, or some other quality food ) and leave the high protein, grain free for later when she is through growing. One other thought is The Honest Kitchen ( www.thehonestkitchen.com). I think it is the very best of food. It is a raw, dehydrated food that you rehydrate with warm water. They have both grain free and with grain, but none are the super high protein levels like EVO. The down side is it's pretty expensive. I use it along with kibble since I can't afford to feed it 100% with 4 dogs.

I think you'll love the Honest Kitchen products. I've used the Force and Embark ( grain free) and the Verve...... loved them all. I'm really hoping I can get back to them 100% in a few months.
