Dog feeds have been discussed extensively here, and I would assume feeding a working beagle would be no different than feeding a working birddog. Therefore, what's the cost of the product and a list of the first five ingredients? That's a start for discussion.

The Redmills Tracker formula doesn't look to have the high protein/fat needed for working Beagles. I would use one of the other formulas. Here is their site.

Each to their own, but I wouldn't want to pay over .85 a lb for their best feed. I assume it may cost a wee bit more since it's imported from Ireland.

I guess if you are Irish and have plenty of money, go for it. I'll stay with American feeds that are likely superior. 8) :wink:

And Diamond, Loyall, Tuffy's, Sportsmix, Pro Plan, and a thousand others. One of the things I always look for in a performance feed is corn. Nothing better to provide a balanced energy for a working dog. Oh and with these you will have enough change left in your pocket to get an ice cream cone on the way home.
