Take a forty pound dog, because that is roughly the middle of what walks through our door. Here is what the feeding charts say, for three different ways of feeding the same animal, straight off the...
Two bags, same shelf, same price. One of them costs you more over a year, sometimes a lot more, and the price tag will never tell you which.
This is the single most expensive misunderstanding in pe...
There is a calculator sitting on a lot of our product pages now, under a heading that reads how much to feed, and what it costs per day. Most people scroll straight past it. It answers the question...
The scoop stays the same all year. The dog does not.
By the middle of October around here the evening walk has lost most of its daylight. What was an hour after dinner in July becomes twenty minute...
Most of the digestive upsets we hear about after a food change were not caused by the food. They were caused by the speed of the change.
Somebody buys a better bag, gets home, and swaps the whole b...
No. Dinner Dust is a topper, and the bag says so in plain language: intended for supplemental feeding only. If your dog eats nothing but Dinner Dust, your dog is eating an incomplete diet.

Flip the bag over and look at the feeding chart. If it has two columns, one headed for a complete meal and one for a mixer or topper, then yes, that food can be your dog's dinner. Most of the Stell...
A forty pound dog needs two and a quarter cups of kibble, or twelve freeze-dried patties, or three quarters of a cup as a topper. The arithmetic behind each, and the three things people forget to count.
Two bags at the same price can cost very different amounts to feed. Why calorie density makes cost per bag misleading, how to work out cost per day instead, and the three things people find when they do.
Three boxes on our product pages work out what your dog's food actually costs per day. How to fill them in, why the price field is blank on some brands, and the mistakes that make the answer wrong.
Daylight shrinks, walks shorten, and the scoop stays the same. The third-of-a-difference in calories across the Meal Mixers line, and three things to do this week instead of switching foods.
Most upsets blamed on a new food were caused by the speed of the switch. Stella's seven to ten day window, the three ways people get it wrong, and when the usual advice does not apply.
The bag says supplemental feeding only, and most people never read it. What Dinner Dust is for, how it differs from a Meal Mixer, and why the bacon recipe is built unlike the rest of its own line.
The feeding chart answers it in four seconds. If your bag has a complete-meal column alongside the topper column, it can be dinner. Here is why the two amounts differ so much, and which recipes are toppers only.
