Pro Plan vs. Diamond Natural

I’ve been feeding diamond natural for a little while now and I like it, but I’ve been contemplating on switching to pro plan. What do y’all think about the two brands ?

I used to feed diamond naturals. I now feed pro plan, I switch because it seemed diamond had or has recalls every year. My dogs like it. They don't seem to wear down as fast on the pro plan. But that's just my opinion.

Depends alot on which Pro Plan you're talking about. I've read the studies, I've tried them all, and the Pro Plan Sport is simply the best feed I've encountered of any brand, any price for a dog that's really being hunted hard. Now just about any semi-quality feed will keep them looking decent standing in the pen, but I get better weight retention, better coat health, and tons more energy in really hard hunted dogs out of the PP Sport than any I've tried.

pro plan

The last two feeds I have used are pro plan 30/20 and Diamond extreme athlete 32/25.I think pro plan and native are equally the best I have fed .But I have gone back to extreme athlete simply because of cost.I have never been a fan of Purina but I didn't think ex was keeping enough weight on dogs so decided to try pro plan . Ordered some thru Chewy.com.During the time I ordered it until it was delivered the price went up 15%.That made me go back to ex.But if you can afford the price I highly recommend pro plan 30/20.Not sure if that's the pro plan sport,cant remember but what im saying is 30/20 is as good as ive ever fed.
