Katrina, you may want to do a little on line research and make some decisions for yourself. In google search, put in dog food ingredients and see what comes up. I just did this in the past 2 weeks. Here are three web sites I looked at (along with many others):

http://www.doberdogs.com/menu.html

The doberdogs site does have some comparison charts. you could even include comparison charts in your google search.

I guess each of us will have different priorities. Mine included: I wanted a natural food; I never realized some are human grade, others are not until I started reading some of the sites. (I thought none were!) so I wanted human grade. I didn't like the sounds of that "renderings of companion animals" one bit, so I wanted to stay away from THAT.

I decided on Chicken Soul for the Dog / Cat Lover. Their web site helps you find a dealer. The ones closest to me are pet stores, they sell puppies. I don't do business with those stores. And having rescued Sugar from the puppy mill scene, I just couldn't do it. So I kept looking on the list of dealers. I found one near me that doesn't sell puppies; they carry supplies for farms, and livestock. It is a half hour ride, but I am willing to do that. And Sugar LOVES the smells in the store!

After finding out which dog food I was going to use for the new arrival, then I reconsidered what I am giving my cats. I have owned cats for 12 years, and they have always been on SD. No longer. Switched them over too. Many of the same reasons applied.

Hope this gives you a few ideas how to make your choice!
