We are getting a puppy soon (cockapoo) and so I have been doing some research - a lot actually in to different foods and what’s best nutritionally. I have joined the cockapoo owners club and I’m surprised to find that very few people (or those who will admit) feed their dog a lower priced ‘budget’ food. I guess I was naive regarding dog food as growing up all of our family dogs just had a massive cheap bag of wagg or the like, it seems like everyone feeds raw or (what I would consider) expensive foods. I completely understand different nutritional content and meat content etc and people have said to others on the group ‘why would you pay that much for a dog and feed it rubbish’ which I understand to a certain extent but my point is, aren’t dogs fed on a budget food such as Aldi, pets at home or others just as well as dogs fed on premium foods? Genuine question - does anyone get by just fine with it?
