things that you should NEVER consider when determining if the food is worth a damn

1 what shows up in the settlement chamber
2 how clear it keeps the water
So if I go out in the yard and there ain't no dogS**t to step in, I am feeding my dogs good food.

no, with your dogs that may not be something to consider, unless their sh**te broke up and floated around in the air and they tended to inhale it.

I stay away from food with corn in it....Makes to much waste with no benifit.
Same with dogs/all the corn does for dogs is give them smelly gas...
If you have a indoor dog try buying dog food without corn...You will see the difference.

IMO

I'm no dog guy...no dogs or cats just koi/no goldfish.
My friend the dog guy has big indoor dogs.....He went from expensive dog food with corn.
To costco dog food w/o corn...
No more stinky gas problems with his dogs .
Just going by what he's told me

the goats are eating their natural diet ergo small poops, although they don't really eat the tin cans, just the weeds. Try feeding them corn and report back.
