Dog Food

[VydorScope]

Okay theres been a few threads here on this, but I get lost in them LOL. My 40 pound bag of gluten full dog food is running low. So what I need is INEXPENSIVE GLUTEN FREE dog food that I can get in a local store. Cost is a MAJOR issue in our life right now, but its the only gluten that my toddler son might getin my house, so I want to knock it out. Yes a toddler will eat dog food

Dog is a mix breed, 59 pounder, middle aged for a dog (prlby 5 or 6, we rescued him few years ago).

So , what can I find in say a Pet Smart or Pet Co thats not gonna kill my already over stressed budget? I have already checked EVERY bag in my grocery store and they all have at least Oats in them.

Thanks!

How about this one:

I've seen this mentioned on another forum, and I think it's sold at chain stores like Petsmart. The ingredients looked safe (scroll down on the page).

That is the one thing I had not really checked on but needed to cause Belle will eat that stuff! I just looked at Science Diet LArge breed puppy that we use and the ingredients all looked safe to me but I could be wrong! Check with that company maybe. Some of their stuff has oat.

Canidae is about $28 for 40lbs, but I'm not sure where you can get it.

Hmm I recall seeing that brand at Nashville Pet Products, that might work have to see how much! Thanks.

Science Diet is not known for being cheap

I have found that the canidae store locator is not reliable, it doesn't list the store where my mom buys it locally.

If you have time, go through the phone book and call the pet stores and feed stores in your area, you might luck out. Not only is it gluten free, but it's a great food.

I guess it is not the cheapest but we feed our pets that even though we are broke! I get coupons on line for $2 off and at Petco we earn a free bag after buying 10.

Found that Nutro Natural Choice one, was only one in our local stores.. $30.99 for 40 pound bag, not as cheap as I hopeed, but better then I feared at least!

Gee--I'll have to check and see if any of Nutro's cat foods are gluten-free. The one I buy for my cat (Nutro Adult Formula) has wheat in it. I don't think thats as big an issue for me, though, as I'm the only one that has to be careful (no little ones w/Celiac), and I've been careful to wash my hands after feeding him.

I also get it at Petco and get the free bag with 10!

Yea, we get free bag at 10 too. Rather them reduce the price by 10% and not be bother with the silly card, but thats just me.

[jerseyangel]

Yea--I know what you mean!

I have been buying the Alpo in a can. Its the Filet Mignon flavor (this is the only flavor that I've found to be gluten free) and my dog loves it (if you don't mind messing with the canned food). It comes with a pop top so you don't need a can opener and it ranges between 40 - 48 cents per can. My dog eats one can a day.
