I supplemented with Balance Diet for a while, but had a lot of problems with shipping and area to store. My neighbor had the same problem. Dick Van Patten's foods tend to be a little high in copper, Cockers (my breed) have a tendency to copper toxosis, so I stick to the raw diet with some Raw Instinct to supplement.

The dog I just recently adopted is supposed to be a malti/poo but has ears as long as a cocker so I may have to re-think DVP's food. I will probably get it tomorrow anyway to tide me over until I can get something else since I'm concerned with the Iams dry.

We are very limited here [small town], so I will have to order over the internet.

The only concern I have with the raw food diet is they should be frozen according to the website and I don't have a very large freezer. If I read the info correctly raw foods will tend to mold if you don't freeze or use refrigerated food fast enough. Is that correct?
