Chicken Soup For the Puppy Lover's Soul Large Breed Formula Review

We have foster puppies here at the moment and man do they love to eat.  When I ran out of food mid-week and was in a major hurry, I stopped at a pet supply store that I never visit simply because it was on my way.  While there, I opted for Chicken Soup for the Puppy Lover's Soul because it had a decent ingredients listing and was $5 cheaper than the brand that I had planned to buy. 

What I actually wound up grabbing was a 15 pound bag of Chicken Soup for the Puppy Lover's Soul Large Breed Formula.  I don't know what these pups are a mix of, and while they are going to be big dogs, I don't think I'd classify them as "large breeds".  In any case, this food has a decent ingredients listing that doesn't include by-products, corn, wheat, or carcinogenic preservatives. 

I've been feeding this food to the foster pups for several days now and, while they like to eat it, I've noticed that their stools have been softer than usual since they've been eating it.  Although it is cheaper than the usual puppy kibble that we feed, it also is a brand that can be extremely difficult to find unless you order it online.  Your typical PetCo/PetSmart doesn't stock the Chicken Soup line.

The ingredients in Chicken Soup for the Puppy Lover's Soul are good, the foster puppies really like to eat it, and the price is reasonable.  Still, they don't digest it as well as they do with other food and it isn't easy to find, so I probably wouldn't buy this dry puppy kibble again unless I was really in a pinch.
