You lost me there for a moment, waterlocke. I'm such a KC fogey that I had to wiki Plummer terrier, though I had guessed it was a working type like, say, a Patterdale is. Well, it will be no great size crossed with a staffy, so the best won't cost you much. Breeders prefer dry food because there's less mess, literally, and a little of it feeds a lot very well, compared...

What breed is the pup?
Pro-plan was fed by the breeder of my last wolfhound pup; since, at the time, she had twenty-nine pups to feed,of the world's tallest breed, she must have thought the cost worthwhile! She uses it for all her wolfhounds.
I'm guessing that you haven't a pup of anything like that size. A small breed pup requires very little, an average one not much. in which case the best puppy food is not noticeably much dearer than the worst. But only buy small bags. Bigger bags are cheaper per unit weight but a false economy because it is difficult to keep it fresh. Sounds odd, but it loses its attraction and the dog may refuse to eat it .
If you can't get Pro-plan, then Eukanuba or Iams will do.

I really believe the best quality you can afford will give you happy healthy and long life for your pet! I know it's easy to get distracted by the cheap stuff... But imagine what you would look like if you lived in KFC!!! Cat food is the same apparently! Whiskas is terrible!
Question to ask yourself... Why does the chicken flavoured dog food never resemble chicken! It's not even white in colour!!!! I can recommend zooplus

My local pet shop sells 1 kilo bags of many of the better dry foods. I can't afford to buy the full size all the time-nor do I have storage for a huge bag-so this is ideal. I find Arden Grange Lamb and Rice suits Sally quite well. Also Chappie-it's one of the cheapest,but many vets recommend it because it's gentle on the tum.
Isla, my Belgian Shepherd was broght up on Royal Canin which is quite expensive, but a little of it went a long way with her and she's grown into a lovely dog with strong teeth and a lovely coat (and bottomless energy!) - we changed after about 15 months to a brand called CSJ which do very good, reasonable priced dry food. http://www.csjk9.com/
