As far as what's in his best interest, his offices do not sell food. I wholeheartedly agree with you about the Science Diet scam that goes on across the country, though.
To be fair also, I talked with the lady who runs the healthy pet food store where we buy our food. She is not a big fan of either Blue Buffalo or Natural Balance. She also advised me against getting the Canidae brand of Salmon & Sweet Potato; she recommends a brand called Taste of the Wild Pacific Stream Formula.
So - I guess that you'll get as many opinions as the number of people you ask. Right now we're doing the best we can for our dogs under the present financial circumstances.

Kudos for you to putting the effort into research. It's already a step ahead of what most people do.
Earlier today, I had a random thought about my above post too. When I was growing up I had a friend that had a dog named "Stinky". Stinky was a wire haired little terrier mutt. The dog never went to the vet, never got sick, and lived to be 21 years old. You know what he ate? Whatever was leftover from dinner, literally. They would scrape their plates into one big pile and dump it on the back patio. And let me tell you, this family wasn't the world's healthiest eaters either. If it could be fried, they did. But somehow the mix kept Stinky happy for longer than any other dog I ever knew.
