Change of food / Arrival of items

I have changed YuDan's food gradually since last week since his food was running low, from Addiction Salmon Bleu to TimberWolf Ocean Blue which is much more premium when it comes to ingredients as well as pricing.

At first, I wanted to get Timberwolf Wilderness for YuDan which consist of Elk (young kangaroo) & lamb instead of Salmon again but there was no stock with the supplier. I hope he will finish the new packet of  Ocean Blue. I can feel that he's getting sick of salmon! Haha!

Anyway, some information that I read and learn about food ingredients which I'm glad to share with everyone.

Do take note of their first five ingredients and the first will be the main ingredient. Any ingredients that mentioned meal (salmon meal, chicken meal etc) consist of any part of the animal. Example, chicken meal means everything from the chicken including liver, intestines, heart etc. Moreover, I read that only chicken meal consist of even their heads, legs, claws etc. Whereas the rest are just internal organs.

Next, a much better kibble will have their first ingredient as a food, not as a meal.
Lamb = lamb, not lamb meal
Salmon = salmon, not salmon meal
etc

First 5 ingredients
Addiction Salmon Bleu for puppies : Salmon Meal, Potatoes, Chicken Fat (Free from Chicken Protein and naturally preserved with Mixed Tocopherols - a source of Vitamin E), Whole Smoked Salmon, Dried Blueberries...
Timberwolf Ocean Blue : Herring, Ocean Fish Meal, Salmon, Herring meal, Russet Potatoes...

I didn't read up much about food in the past for the start as my main objective is to seek for no grains, no soy, no wheat, no artificial preservation and no food coloring. That made me settled down on Addiction.

Right now, I'm contented with my choice as Timberwolf Ocean Blue consisted of 4 fishes as their first 5 ingredients compared to just 1 salmon meal by Addiction Salmon Bleu. Furthermore, Timberwolf have herbs in their kibbles which is so fragrant! I was surprised when I opened up the pack.

It is very hard to make a decision from all the brands out there in the market. Got to read up more for the interest of your pouch.
