It suppose to be good for sight hounds. Someone evaluate, good or what?


Want to do something wonderful for your dog? Give him really great food: Flint River Ranch!

What's so good about Flint River Ranch foods? Just about everything!

The secret to good nutrition is how available nutrients are and how efficiently they can be utilized when digested. Flint River Ranch Canine and Feline ALL-NATURAL Super Premium food products are composed of all natural human-grade ingredients such as high quality real meats (not by-products), real grains (not fillers) and natural preservatives (not synthetic chemicals). These foods are so good you could eat them yourself. When you buy through dogbazaar.com a portion of the sale will be donated to Saluki Tree of Life Alliance, Inc. (STOLA) to benefit their Saluki welfare and rescue programs.

Meat: Real hormone-free chicken meat is the base meat source for the regular dog food; real range fed lamb meat is the base meat source for the Lamb, Millet & Rice food. There are no rendered by-products such as intestines, heads, feet, feathers or tumors which are commonly used and legally permitted in other dog food brands. The amino acids provided by meat are the basic building blocks of muscle, skin, coat, bone, blood and the immune system. Without a reliable protein source your dog will never achieve peak health.

Grain: Wheat, millet and rice and the basic grains used. These grains are more easily digestible than corn and are better balanced nutritionally. A combination of grains is a better food source than just one grain. Many dog food brands legally use low quality fillers such as wood fiber, corn cobs, peanut hulls, cottonseed, straw, soybeans or citrus pulp; these are never used in Flint River Ranch products. You will only find the kind of quality foods you could eat yourself.

Vitamins and Minerals: Flint River Ranch minerals are chelated which means they're bonded with amino acids (protein) and highly effective in providing metabolic absorption. Vitamin E and Vitamin C are used as natural preservatives in Flint River Ranch Foods instead of the ethoxyquin, BHA and BHT used in other foods which have been linked to health problems such as dry skin, allergic reactions, dental disease and degenerative organ dysfunction.

Flax: The different proteins in flax provide a high base of unsaturated essential fatty acids (EFA) and dietary fiber. Flax is recognized for its potential in reducing the risk of some chronic diseases as well as improving the thickness and sheen of the hair coat. It provides a great benefit to Flint River Ranch's oven-baked food by resisting oxidation from the baking process and improving product shelf life.

Hey honey I feed Flint River Ranch in a variety of kinds depends on the dog. I have to order online for it so shipping is killing me. I kinda went to Bil Jac frozen, great food no BHA or BHT nothing in it but meat. Also a good one is Innova and Wellness kibbles. Dog food I researched for many months via the net and books and it is so corrupt with junk one must learn to read the very little print as well as our dogs are eating dead dogs with cancer being on severe meds picked up, road kills, feathers, cancerous cows ground up and glorified, etc. I did this and I had to quit as it mad me ill. What we pay for junk food.??????????

Chicken Meal, Whole Wheat Flour, Ground Rice, Lamb Meal, Poultry Fat (Preserved with Tocopherols and Ascorbic Acid), Ground Whole Wheat, Flax Seed, Dried Whole Egg, Lecithin, Fish Meal, Brewers Dried Yeast, Wheat Germ Meal, Dried Kelp, Dehydrated Alfalfa Meal, Salt, Potassium Chloride, Monosodium Phosphate, Choline Chloride, Ferrous Sulfate, DL-Alpha Tocopherol Acetate (Source of Vitamin E), Zinc Oxide, Sodium Selenite, Manganous Oxide, Riboflavin Supplement (Vitamin B2), Copper Sulphate, Amino Acid Chelates of Zinc, Iron, Manganese, Copper and Cobalt, Niacin, Ascorbic Acid (Source of Vitamin C), Vitamin B12 Supplement, Vitamin A Supplement, Calcium Pantothenate, D-Biotin Supplement, Pyridoxine Hydrochloride (Source of Vitamin B6), Calcium Iodate, Thiamine Mononitrate, Folic Acid, Vitamin D3 Supplement

Wheat is highly allergenic - ans this food has it THREE times. It has generic "poultry" fat instead in chicken fat. The only other problem I see is salt.
