What dog food is the best to feed a bichon frise?

Hi, I am going to get a bichon very soon. I heard many comercial dog food brands are bad and i cant seem to find a good brand. Do you know any great dog food brands? Thanks

The best food for your Bichon is the one you can best afford. Period.

Most large stores like Petsmart or Petco and NO grocery or department stores (like Wal Mart) will carry good foods. The best Petsmart carries is Nutro and Blue Buffalo.

Ask your vet! He will know, but if that is too expensive than i would suggest Purina.

puppy chow or same thing is mad by the one that is mad by them.

You're best bet is to get a food that doesn't contain Corn, wheat or soy. No meat by-products, no animal fat or digest, no meat and bone meal.Dogs cannot digest corn. And the corn, wheat and soy are the leading causes of food allergies. Plus, they are cheap fillers. Animal fat or digest is nasty. They don't specify what kind of animal it is. If you're on a tight budget I recommend California Natural or Chicken Soup. If not, then I recommend Wellness, Natural Balance, Eagle Pack, Innova, Merrick, Wysong, Solid Gold and there's so much more.The foods that I don't recommend are: Science Diet, Iams, Purina, Beneful, Alpo, Pedigree, and anything at the grocery store or walmart.www.dogfoodanalysis.com is a great site to visit. Good luck!

All of the foods from Wal Mart and most well known dog foods have either fillers, by-products, or artificial flavors, colors, and preservatives. Fillers such as corn, wheat, and soy have no nutritional value to them. It is all junk.By-products are the junk in meats. That aren't nutritious plus dead, dying, and cancerous animals are allowed.Artifiacial colors, flavors, and preservatives are cancer causing along with other health problems. Cancer is the number one killer of cats and dogs. You don't want any food that is from Wal Mart or the like. All of the foods there have one or all of these things.All the capitol words are the really bad things, there are also other bad things but I didn’t point them all out.Here is Purina adult complete nutrition-WHOLE GRAIN CORN, POULTY BY-PRODUCT MEAL, ANIMAL FAT preserved with mixed-tocopherols (form of Vitamin E), CORN GLUTEN MEAL, MEAT AND BONE MEAL, brewers rice, soybean meal, barley, whole grain wheat, animal digest, calcium carbonate, salt, calcium phosphate, potassium chloride, L-Lysine monohydrochloride, choline chloride, zinc sulfate, Vitamin E supplement, zinc proteinate, ferrous sulfate, ADDED COLOR (RED 40, YELLOW 5, BLUE 2, YELLOW 6), DL-Methionine, manganese sulfate, manganese proteinate, niacin, Vitamin A supplement, copper sulfate, calcium pantothenate, copper proteinate, garlic oil, pyridoxine hydrochloride, Vitamin B-12 supplement, thiamine mononitrate, Vitamin D-3 supplement, riboflavin supplement, calcium iodate, menadione sodium bisulfite complex (source of Vitamin K activity), folic acid, biotin, sodium selenite.
