The thing about corn is it's nothing BUT a filler...nothing in it goes to the health of the dog...and since it's been used for so long, many dogs are sensitive to it...allergic...
Yes, I am returning a 17.6 lb bag because of those grain mites. This is the 2nd time I have had problems with them. The first time I thought maybe my container seal was old so I threw it away and bought a new container only to have those mites all over the lid. Purina needs to do something about this.
This dog food has a horrible rating, phrannie has a chart and it show Beneful as being one of the worst rated dogs foods out there. I have great packaging, but is almost all grain. Of course if may have grain mites. I would switch you dog over to a better food.
September 15, 2008 Yes, I have had to return 2 bags of beneful back to the store. I found the problem to be very bad in the 40lb bags.
Thanks magichalo...I thought I was going to have to search that out again...you saved me!! :)
