I am looking into buying my dog and cat food at our local feed store. I have not been in there yet to see what brand food they sell, but I wanted to inquiry from those that do shop the feed store as to what brand you have been more successful with. On average (I know it will vary as well) what do you pay at the feed store for pet food? I realize it may be a little more costly but the quality of food is usually better too. Thanks for any help.

We pay about $23.00 for a 50lb. bag of Southwest 21% protein. It comes in a yellow bag.
Wishing you continued success in your quest to purchase from local vendors ... tb

How long on average does it last you? I know it depends on the size of the dog and how many you have but just to give me a rough idea.
We have 3 dogs...2 Rat Terriers and 1 pit bull/lab/blue heeler mix (all of which are big, sweet, spoiled babies.)

Our dog is about 35-40lb. A 50# bag will last us about 8 weeks - we also feed her the table scraps that don't get thrown to the chickens.
