Innova is an excellent food!
I have used it on and off(I rotate other brands between using Innova) for about 2yrs now. This is my favorite dry food for them because they all seem to do excellent on it and its hard to find a single food that all 6 of them like and do well on. It is a very calorie dense food and is well worth the price, IMO. A 16.6 lb. bag cost me about $25 and last about 3wks for my 6.

Yup Innova is another excellent food.
Personally I don't always include it in my lists of food because sometimes I forget, and I have heard some iffy things about it.
You know the product not working as well as it should for the products that are in it (quiet surprising). When taken into comparison with some other foods I like.

Not to say that it's bad, just an aweful lot of people I know mostly dog owners have not seen any improvements in their animals while on this food.

Well, I must admit I have heard some complaints from people regarding Innova dog food which almost scared me out of trying it on my dog...luckily I gave it a try anyway and my dog did excellent on it. When my mother got a puppy last year she was so impressed with my dogs coat that she decided to try Innova on her puppy....its been almost a year now and she is very happy with this food. Some dogs do very well on this food, others do not but I have yet to hear any complaints about the cat food. My grandmother has been feeding the cat food for some time now (switched from Friskies) and is quite impressed. Not every dog or cat will do well on every food...so hearing that some have had negative results with certain foods does not neccessarily mean that your pet will have the same results.
Just my 2cents
