2. Affordable options...

I am sorry, but I don't have any suggestions other than not to feed them any 'wet' food / canned food. I feed mine just dry food ... I dropped the 'wet' food since my dogs were ignoring the other food (dry) and going solely for the 'wet' food (and going nuts for it). I have heard that the 'wet' food isn't good necessarily for them, so I now stick solely with dry food (had to wean them off of the 'wet' food, they were going nuts for it). I do rotate the brands of dry food to give them variety.

Good luck in finding a 'happy' spot for feeding your babies and affording it. I too, have noticed that the treats I used to get my animals are all going up in price too, so much so that I reduced the amount of treats I used to get my animals.
