I spent a lot of money on fancy dog food and honestly can’t tell if it made any difference. Did anyone actually notice a change?

I switched to a more expensive dog food because people kept saying it would improve coat, energy, and digestion. My dog seems fine, but I can't tell if it was worth it.

AI Summary

Users said expensive dog food is not automatically better, but the right formula can help digestion, skin, coat, and energy for some dogs.

Expensive does not always mean better. My dog did best on a mid-priced food that the vet was happy with.

I did notice a difference in my dog's coat, but only after switching from a food that clearly was not agreeing with him.

For us the change was digestion. Less gas, better stool, and fewer stomach issues made the higher price worth it.

I got pulled into the marketing too. Now I ask my vet and read the label instead of trusting pretty packaging.
