Diamond High Energy

We were quite faithful to Diamond until we started noticing inconsistencies within the batches. One bag would have their stools firm, and the next bag would have ten dogs with loose stools until the bag was finished. We decided to give Sportsmix a go, and after a couple months on that we decided that it just didn't work for our dogs. Been on Victor ever since, and I can say that stools are consistent with the exception of a dog getting nervous and having a loose movement. The dogs look good and perform well on the Victor. Furthermore, it is economical to feed.

That said, one feed isn't going to work on every dog. Sportsmix didn't work out for us, but I hear enough good reviews that I am inclined to think the issue we had may have been related to what our dogs were used to. I think it is important to give any new feed sufficient time to produce results when I try it. A couple weeks isn't enough time to assess whether or not a feed is working out. In my opinion, weights and stools can fluctuate until the body gets accustomed to the protein and fat sources within a food. It takes me a minimum of a month, preferably two months to get an idea on whether or not the feed is working for my dogs.
