Guys, how you store big pack of dog food like 13.6kgs?
In a big container or in the original packaging but tied up with rubberband?

Is this method of calculation correct?
13.6 kilograms = 479oz = 60cup.

If one day i feed 1 cup, it only can last approximately 2 months?
So little?  hmm.gif

Don't forget that once the bag is opened the nutritional value of the food degrades as time passes. Get roughly a month's worth.

I personally think that innova and orijien with min crude protein more than 40% is too high for a small breed inactive dog....i personally dun feel comfortable to feed such high protein to my kid..  tongue.gif

And our furkids have a very limited life, average 15 years only, i will give the best food to my kid...and the price for a good food is definitely worth anything...
anyone can recommend any pet shop located at KL (prefer kepong) that sell a big variety brand of dog kibble?

I hv a chi hua hua x min. daschund n a corgi raised on Orijen n currently still on it. All doing extremely well on it. Haven't tried Innova, can't comment. To me Orijen is the best out there next to BARF, but feeding Orijen is kinda different from feeding other brands of kibble as it's a very rich food. Btw, I'm not advertising for anyone. I'm recommending cuz I prefer it out of many brands of kibbles. I raised a maltese on Orijen as well, she's still doing very well.

Guys am currently feeding fish4dog but i found that the poo is kinda soft despite less smell and now im almost finishing the pack so what are the recommended brands for my 4yr old male poodle.

Another question is currently in feeding hin twice for 35gram each time. is it sufficient? Hes a tiny toy pup btw and the packaging insists of 55-120g for pups under 2kg

Don't need to follow the packaging precisely. Judge for yourself how much to feed. If he looks or feels thin at 35g serving then increase. If he looks too fat, decrease the serving amount. smile.gif

It was rated 5 star kibbles due to their generous amount of venison and a single protein ingredient. Why go for 2, 3 or 4 main ingredient if u can settle for one? It is also a grain free kibbles. Wonder how much it cost?

Here is the link

No doubt Orijen is a very good kibbles. I am now feeding my 3 months old beagle Innova for puppy and he is doing great too.
Once turn adult, (which is 6 months old) i think will either change to Evo or Orijen too. But if on budget, will just go for Innova for adult.

Price list as below
1. Innova for Puppy - Rm195
2. Innova for Adult - Rm178
3. Innova Evo Chicken - Rm212
4 Innova Evo Salmon - RM268
5. Orijen Adult - Rm246
6. Orijen Six Fish - Rm288

Do note that this is the price for 13.6kgs / 30lbs

Wow, 3kg cost RM98?? Expensive betul.. tongue.gif Seems like being rated 5 star in Dogfoodanalysis but couldnt find any info on Dogfoodadvisor. hmm.gif
Closes i could find in Dogfoodadvisor is Go Natural Salmon and Oatmeal which rate it as 4 star.
Why would you want to mix with Orijen? I will rather stick in one brand.

ok, went to Pet Lovers Center today at IPC Shopping Center located at Mutiara Damansara and they didnt have Taste Of The Wild Wetlands 13KG bag.

and i dont think Timberwolf is available in malaysia so thats out of the question.

question is, where can i find taste of the wild wetlands 13KG bag ? and if they do, do they do shipping ?

another question is, why cant i buy dog food from amazon US and sent it here ?

im asking this question because its cheaper to buy it online since its straight from US.

are the customs here difficult or do i need some kind of permit to bring in dog food into this country ?

if i do need a permit, where can i get it and how much would it cost ?

thanks.

Bro, I am not sure on Large breed cause i only bought small breed dog which cost RM195. Standard weight should be 30lbs if i am not mistaken. After conversion will be something like 13.6KGS
I am not sure on TOW but since it's so hard to find, wouldnt it be troublesome when your food supply is going to finish? I suggest you to take something that are more common brand such as Innova which is equally good kibbles. Lots of pet shop do carries this brand in Klang Valley. Just my 2 cent.

the biggest bag for Innova Puppy is 30 lb but for Innova Puppy Large breed is 33 lb. (refer to innova official website) nod.gif

its nothing urgent actually because im still planning to feed my two pups EVO until the end of the year then change to a diffrent brand.

for now, evo turkey and chicken 13kg is at RM212 (after discount) which is a bit too much for me.

hopefully to find a diffrent brand which is 15kg or more but cost not more then RM200 (maybe those 3 star rating and below) NOOOOOO icon_question.gif

anyway, will go for innova if i cant find TOTW. icon_rolleyes.gif

Innova for adult will cost much cheaper which is rm178 for small breed dog. Fits ur budget well and rated 4 star. If WANs go for grainless then mahal lor.

I think I will go for it after my puppy turn adult. Orijen or Evo is a lil outta budget. Hehe.

Changed Fish4Dogs to ORijen 6 Fish, I notice he poo less already.

Is it normal? My wife couldn't stand the 6 fish smell so she wants it changed asap.

Thinking of what to get next.

So far, poo less offensive by using Innova. Not sure if it will be lesser offensive smell if you change the kibbles. Orijen 6 fish consider top brand dy.

Just bought the smallest pack of go! chicken, fruits and veggie cuz one of my dogs seems not to have appetite on fish4dogs and she start to lick/bite her paws again. Gave her the new kibbles and she likes it! she goo bled up everything and show me her smiling face. I guess she likes it.

If she's doing great on this brand I might changed fully to it for all my dogs although sometimes I still fed them raw but of course not at the same time with dry kibbles smile.gif

Ok 2 reviews from me today.

First is Canine Caviar Chicken and Pearl Millet Puppy rated 4 star according to here. Been feeding this ever since i got my Maltese. So far when she poop, no smell whatsoever. Easier for me to clean so i guess i'll just stick to Canine Caviar at the moment smile.gif

Second is Blackwood with yellow packaging and purple labels (no numbers and i can't recal the exact name), can't find it in the website. Bought this first pack to feed my Rottweiler. Before this, the breeder fed Eukanuba but I don't have good impression on the brand. Changed to the blackwood, first week the stool was soft and damp, guess she was still getting used to it. After that the stool is normal with minimal smell. I think after this packet finish, i'll be getting the blackwood 2000 and try and see.

Not gonna change food often, don't want to spoil them. If they eat then its fine with me else i'll be having major headache laugh.gif
