Well, here goes the calculation for Kuma in SG BatM: His weight: 11lbs. His daily caloric need: 220 calories/day Cal/lb of SG BatM: 1940 5 lbs. of BatM according to k9cuisine: $13.14 Total Calories in a bag: 51940=9700 Cost per Calorie: $13.14/9700=$0.0013543 Cost a day for SG BatM: $0.0013543220=$0.298/day Cost a month of SG BatM: $0.298/day30= $8.94/month Cost a year of SG BatM: $0.298365=$108.78/year

	Went to pick up food today and noticed that Orijen is cheaper then I thought it was ($31.75 for a 7kg bag) and Taste of the Wild is more expensive then I thought ($28.5o for a 6.8kg bag). So... TOTW 3750 cal x 6.8kg = 25 500 25 500 / 1475 = 17.28 $28.50 / 17.28 = $1.64 Orijen 4200 cal x 7kg = 29 400 29 400 / 1475 = 19.93 $31.75 / 19.93 = $1.59 Orijen is cheaper to feed then Taste of the Wild! Only by $1.50/month but hey, it's something!

	I went to the Pet Food Warehouse, today, after my conference. I'm beating myself up for not looking up the price of the food. I only realized it when I opened up this forum.

	American foods are more expensive in Canada. Canidae, here at least, isn't really that much cheaper than Orijen. It's still cheaper, but not in a "holy cow that's cheap" kind of way. Edited by author Tue May 13, '08 8:00pm PST

	I should only eat 288 calories per day! Good thing Mom switched me to a reduced calorie kibble. With my new food I am now eating 352 calories per day compared to about 485! We know this wasnt the point of this thread (to calculate daily caloric intake) but we found it useful! LOL

	"wow Baily where do you buy your taste of the wild????? lol! Our bag of TOTW is 15lbs for $22.5o!!!!!! And it is the same, all around us in other states....." Yep, I'm a Canuck. Which sucks from a dog food point of view. Forget the fact that the dollars are pretty much even; we still pay through the nose for American made foods. Taste of the Wild is $28.50 for 15lbs. Canidae is $27.99 for 20 lbs (I think). Orijen is $36.45 for 15.4 lbs (our local seller sells it for $31.75 because Orijen jacked it's price up, but she didn't want to) or $57.75 for 28.6lbs.

	Bailey - bet you can get Petcurean's "Go! Natural" for a decent price. It's a quality kibble. I do see your point though! ETA: Petcurean is based in British Columbia Edited by author Tue May 13, '08 8:38pm PST
