The base in meat. That is a 40 pound bag. My hounds get 3 cups and the beagles get 1 3/4 cup. This is good stuff. I've fed expensive feed long enough and was glad to see this come along. They also support our local 4h, schools, and rabbit hunting club. Give it a try, you'll be glad ya did.

They had no Purina in the store at all.

Anyone else heard this?

To the best of my knowledge we couldn't even get the Purina Hi-Pro. All we can get in Purina foods is One, Pro Plan, Beniful and Dog Chow.
We're paying $30 a bag for a 35lb bag of Dog Chow now.

I have been feeding Exceed from Sam's for a couple months now.Very Nice Dog Food. Dogs eat it well, not much stool and never loose any energy.


I also thought the price of dog food went up because of fuel prices.Why has it not gone back down??

I know about the Exceed lamb (pink bag) and chicken (yellow bag) but have not seen Exceed meat base at our local Sam's club, and couldn't find any info about it online. Can you give me more info, maybe a product code number, so I can have our local Sam's club look it up? Thanks!

I just got off the phone with Purina, letting them know how ***MAD*** I am that they discontinued HiPro, and about how I am NOT about to switch from $20/50-lbs. HiPro to ProPlan or ONE at $35/38-lbs. (that's the same as $46/50 lbs. -- more than DOUBLE the price of HiPro), especially not when Exceed is the same **** thing as ProPlan, at $28/44 lbs (same as $31/50 lbs; still too pricey for as much as I use). They told me that they had decided to concentrate on their newer products -- apparently it's just too bad for us faithful LARGE VOLUME CUSTOMERS, the very people who made Purina a household name.

I feed 60+ Labradors about 75 lbs. a day. My dog food bill is already $12,000/year. No way in hell can I afford it to be $27,000/year, which is what it would be if I had to switch to ProPlan. And here in California, we don't have the smaller-label alternatives like Joy and Black Gold, that are price-competitive with HiPro. In MT I used a lot of Tuffy's, but after Tuffy sold the plant it wasn't any good anymore.

Sam's Club "Member's Mark Performance" is similar to HiPro, at $19.80/50 lbs, and adult dogs (especially old dogs) do a little better on it than on HiPro... BUT puppies don't (they're thin and are borderline for rickets) and the stool volume is unbelievable -- I have to mix it 2 parts MMPerf to one part Exceed to get the stool down to something reasonable. And I have to feed the puppies straight Exceed. Not so bad when they're little, but gets out of hand when you're feeding a bunch of half-grown prospects, as I often do.
