Hey, Char,
You know when I went to pick another food to try it was between Neutro
and Back to Basics. So, let me know how you like the Neutro in a few
months and I'll let you know about the Back to Basics. One immediate
difference is that the kibble size for Back to Basics is tiny; very easy
for small dogs though nothing like chewing on a cookie. <G>
Fondly,
Suze
