Pride?

Post by tinymwoods »

Who all here feeds Pride dog food? I have been feeding Chestnut Mtn for years but the 26-18 just went to $17.35. I don't see paying that much. It has done good, but that is ridiculous for what it is. I looked at Pro plan, but the regular label looks BAD, and the better feed is $26.99 @ Sam's. Just looking for opinions. Price as well as quality is important.

Mike - I've been feeding my kennels Black Gold 26/18 since January this year and they're doing real well on it. Good stamina, good weight, good price ($16/50 lb. bag) If you're interested, let me know how many bags you want, I'll bring it them to the next hunt, I usually carry a few bags and pyramid rabbit traps w/ me anyhow.

I feed 26/18 (the green bag). My dogs do good on it. Not much stool and good coats.

Went up to $16 a bag a few months ago. Not bad being if you add it up you can hardly get 50lbs of the WalMart stuff for $16.

I have been using Pride Pro Series 21/17 all summer long. I am very happy with the results and might switch to the Orange bag Pro Series once I feed out what I have because of the higher protien level. My dogs have a slick coat and maintain their weight well at 1 3/4 cups of food per day.

I pay $15.50 including tax per 50#....or $14.50 per if I buy ten bags at a time.

I went to the 21/17 pro Pride and won't feed anything else. Very low kennel maintenance, excellent energy, coats, no negatives at all. When I'm not running, I feed a ridiculously small amount and they gain fat anyway. Never had a hound turn it down,either. I have fed about 10 different brand names over the past 37 years and I'm more satisfied with this than anything I ever fed.

Hey Hare, If your free in a couple weeks, come to Bonnie's and visit. Gota bunch of pups to start, should be fun. Can you bring something along to show ours the way... :lol: ... My boys coming and we'd both like to see you again... He still got the Ranger patches you gave him in their place of honor, one on his computer board and the other on the refrigerator door...he's long outgrew the jacket he had it on... ;)
