For a previously stray beagle, she can sure be picky.  On other brands, she would eat everything but her food-toilet paper, fuzz, napkins, scraps of fabric.  Whatever she could get her beagle nose around.  With Pedigree she seems more satisfied, and she actually eats it!  Plus, looking at the ingredients, I can pronounce more things on the list than I can on the bargain brand.  I'm glad we made the switch.
