I know awhile back someone on here was feeding their basenji Pedigree. Owners need to be educated, educated, educated so they make good/excellent choices for their dogs.
As we all know here, feeding becomes very personal… but these foods with corn and other "fillers" are like feeding your children a complete diet of junk food.... Hopefully people will come to understand the value of a good quality food for their pets.
I heard in the news that arsenic can be linked to certain types of cancer. Still if there are high concentrations of arsenic in rice, it does not makes sense to feed it to your dog everyday.

@Moth:
Have you ever tried an obedience class? It might be a great place to start.
It sounds like your dog is space guarding.

was just going through some old threads, and came across this one-Moth, I like your style and advice-esp this link!
EL D (who will be 6 this December) sleeps (I think) most of the day while I'm at work. In the evenings when the weather was nice he would run around in the yard until it got too dark but now he generally just sits in his bed or on the couch if I'm involved in something, otherwise he's throwing his toys around or snooping in the basement.
