I would love to ask, but I feel like there's no easy way to bring this up to a breeder without it sounding like "So, why do you feed this crappy food?" I'm sure they'd not appreciate my questioning their judgment. But I will try to think of a way!

Furthermore, regarding costs, we're not talking about Great Danes here. These are 10lb. mini Dachshunds who need very little food, even less when it's a high-quality, meat-based food. That makes it even more puzzling to me.

I feel like as a "good breeder" it is their business to know -- I'm not a breeder and I know, because I've done the research. The standard should be higher for a breeder than just for someone who wants a puppy. I know that breeding dogs is not cheap; it's not something good breeders do to...

When there is a long list of 5-star foods, it seems pretty bad. Most of the Royal Canin varieties get a 2.5, and even the 3.5 variety's first 3 ingredients are "chicken meal, brown rice, rice" -- 1 meat meal & 2 carbs, including a refined carb. Close behind it is "wheat gluten meal" -- a filler...

So frustrated! Contacted another highly recommended (by several folks) local show breeder this morning, and she also feeds Pro Plan. I remember when I was researching which breed to get and I was deciding between dachshunds and french bulldogs. There were many FB breeders who fed quality...

I've been using this site: Dog Food Reviews and Ratings | Dog Food Advisor to judge. The Royal Canin variety they review is pretty bad. Another example: I know that lots of vets recommend Science Diet (because Hill's funds vet schools), but that food is made of crap! I'm looking into...

Ah, yes, I've emailed GrandGables several times & they simply won't give me the time of day :(

Impossible to find a responsible breeder! I can't seem to find a reputable breeder, not just of chocolate & tans, but reds, too! Even after months and months of research. No one wants to answer all my questions, and when they do, they feed crap food like Royal Canin or Pro Plan. Isn't there...

Hi Folks, I live in Brooklyn, NY, and I'm having a hard time finding a responsible breeder who breeds smooth chocolate & tan minis. Does anyone have a recommendation? Thanks! Ilana
