Sportmix Caninex

Post by belleriver » Sat Jun 17, 2017 5:51 am

Just wondering if anyone is using this food and do you like it? If so what are you paying for it? They have 2 different versions 32/25 and 25/25 protein/fat.

I know this is from over a month ago but if you're still wondering the local pet store near me says they sell a lot of it, mostly to pit bull and mastiff owners and breeders, and that they seem to really like it. They had a special on it for a while... $29.99 for a 40 pound bag of either kind (chicken or beef). I think the normal price is $39.99. The gal there pushed for me to give it a shot but I passed. I've had amazing results with Pro Plan, plus I didn't like the fact that the CanineX was grain free.

You should have tried it that is a great price. I quit pro plan years ago when they raised the price and the bag weight got smaller. Actually I think there food is overrated.

Sportmix dog foods are not well rated. They are made to be cheaper and compete with the big box stores.

Why would you believe the ratings when you know nothing about who, how, or why they are being rated? I see several glaring errors in the explanations they have posted which makes me wonder about the rest of their ratings accuracies.

It's not how many breaths you have taken but how many times it has been taken away!

Has anyone noticed common sense isn't very common anymore.

I don't put much stock in any of the dog food ratings. But this was about all I could find on the Caninex formula. Same goes for Dog Food Advisor. I don't agree with most of their ratings. Let's use ProPlan as an example. In any of the dog food ratings ProPlan is generally not rated real high, yet I would guess that the vast majority of breeders, trainers and field trial people feed ProPlan. There are so darn many dog foods out there today it's difficult for the consumer to know what's best for their dog except through trial and error. It appears that the OP is looking for a less expensive dog food. I don't think ProPlan is what I would call expensive. I can buy a 37.5 lb. bag on Chewy.com for around $40 with auto ship. Any time you can get a quality dog food, regardless of brand, for approx. $1 per pound I think it's a pretty good deal. As much money that we spend on our dogs (vets, training, etc.) saving $5-10 per bag doesn't make much sense unless you have a lot of dogs.

For once I agree with you

They did not rate the food I asked about, plus I don't put much stock in there ratings. Chewy ratings are much better on there food and that is from actual customers.

I use 1/2 sportmix black bag and 1/2 raw meat. The combo works excellent.
