dog kibble prices

• dog kibble prices jprinz99 Posted : 3/31/2006 5:55:30 AM Just wondering- have you all had the cost of kibble jump this past year? Around hear ALL decent dog food (dry) has jumped about $10.00 - $15.00 for the big bags (30-40 pound sizes). I currently pay exactly $10.00 more compared to 12 months ago. This seems to be regardless of brand or store. I was wondering why, but I can't get a firm answer. I keep hearing it's the manufacturers, the cost of grain due to drought/floods/Katrina, gas prices, etc. LIKE 9 REPLIES 646 VIEWS LAST POST KENNEL_KEEPER Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• papillon806 Posted : 3/31/2006 8:38:43 AM Right now, I have been buying my parents dog food (for their 11 yr old english cocker), mainly because if it was up to them they would feed him kibbles n bits (lol).  Anyways, since I have been buying the Innova Senior, I noticed that over the course of the past year it had gone up only by about $5 ($40 for a 33# bag vs $35).  Still a raise in price though!   0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• audkal Posted : 3/31/2006 11:21:26 AM What's weird is the prices of dog food in my area if anything have gone down. (Not by much though), the Canidae I buy went from 36.99 to 34.99 (35 lb bag), this was not long after Hurricane Katrina. 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• Dana Posted : 3/31/2006 4:21:35 PM I run a retail natural supply store and I have seen two things jump over the past year: 1) Delivery charges from the distributors 2) yes the cost (wholesale) has jumped up a buck or two per bag as well. 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• kennel_keeper Posted : 3/31/2006 9:22:02 PM I thought the federal minimum wage was $5.35???? At least that's what is was for the last several years when I was in retail management. Anyway, I guess it's time for it to go up, however, the price of goods will have to rise more to compensate for the higher wages. 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.
