“I have been using CSJ Dog Food for many years and all of my young sheepdogs and Alaskan Malamutes were reared on the puppy food and are now thriving on the adult food. The sheepdogs and Malamutes are strong, healthy, full of stamina and have well conditioned coats. The sheepdogs compete in sheepdog trials, and the Malamutes run in sleddog rallies and compete in the showring.”
