Help Me, Flist!

The second section of my class started this week and they upped the homework quotient. A LOT. Which wouldn't be such a huge problem except I'm fighting both a bladder infection and an ear infection and haven't slept in days. I expect to spend the weekend curled up in a ball somewhere trying to sleep. Meanwhile, one of the assignments requires me to ask 5 people not related to me questions about what they feed their pets. We have one pet owner in the office this week (yes, I quizzed her) but the others are out, and if I'm too zonked to go out this weekend...

So if anyone owns a cat and/or dog and is really bored in the next few days, I need to know:

Pet - dog or cat, and approximate age
Primary food you give your pet?
Where you buy it?
Why do you choose this particular kind of food for your pet?

Thanks in advance for the help! Now I'll pass out on my desk.

PS If anyone knows of any good articles or books regarding hookworms, I also have to write a report on that.

Dog, around 5 1/2(ish)

Taste of the Wild: Pacific Stream formula (dry food)

Pet Supplies Plus

It's grain free and high quality. It's fish-based (which Dahlia loves) and does not have chicken (which Dahlia has issues with). And when doing a comparison it was less expensive than the others of similar quality.

P.S. Have you asked in any of the dog communities like [livejournal.com profile] thedogcommunity or [livejournal.com profile] allthingsdog? You would get tons of answers there!

Well, I only need 5 people for this one :) I'll keep those in mind if later assignments demand it.

Thanks for the help all!
