Re: [pyrnet] Kirkland Dog Food

[Perry <pyreau@erols.com>]

Hello,
   We just returned after a terrific week in sunny California for the 
2009 Great Pyrenees National.  We had a great time, but the e-mail has 
certainly piled up.
   I did want to respond about Kirkland Dog Food.  We fed Diamond dog 
food for years and were very happy with it but our supplier stopped 
stocking it.  We recently heard that Kirkland Dog Food was made by 
Diamond so went to check it out.  We have two Pyrenees that are allergic 
to corn. Finding food that does not have corn is not easy and can be 
very expensive...even most lamb and rice foods contain corn. Kirkland 
food does not contain corn.  Our dogs seem to prefer chicken and rice 
formulas.  So, we tried the Kirkland chicken and rice.  Our dogs love it 
and we have not had problems with ear infections at all (that is what 
happens when they have corn) and have used it for about 3 months.  We 
are very pleased with the food.
