Yes, that's a trip :(

Darn and it's not like these dog food brands are inexpensive.  I think a large
bag of weight-control Adult dog food goes for about $20.00 plus now.  We were
buying IAMS brand.. but this article also talks about how many of the brands
are now owned by conglomerates, and therefore quality is not like it was in
the past:

I also found this link from that site above to discuss the best way to make
your own pet food.  It doesn't seem to be that expensive to do so, but the
time involved could be a critical factor since we have 3 cats and 3 dogs :(

Page down a bit and you'll see directions for cat and dog foods made at home.

Take care,
Janis
