The store where I usually buy my dog food has introduced Dave's Dog Food, a new holistic brand that is very affordable at less than $40 for 40 pounds. It's only available in the northeastern U.S. and New England though, from what I can tell. Has anyone tried it yet?

Here's some info and the link. Oddly, the company owner apparently runs soda and pet shops (combined!) in MA. (Would you like some rawhide with your Pepsi? :-)
