    Its a lot easier to recommand a brand if we know where you live. The OP may not be in the US. There seem to be less quality food options overseas and its harder to find a good one because they have less regulations about which ingredients must be listed in many countries.

    Good point! I am in Oregon. And I did a ton of research and found out she needs a lot more protein than the food she was getting. It was 21% min. But I just got a new bag of all natural food that's 30% min. and I think she will do a lot better on this. How should we do the transition? Is mixing new food in with the old a bad idea? I feel like I heard somewhere that you're not supposed to mix foods. In that case, do we just get rid of the old stuff and start right in with only the new food? Thank you guys again for the feedback, there is something so trustworthy about fellow dog owners

    What you heard was wrong! The best way to transition to the new food is to do so gradually - start with 3/4 old food 1/4 new food, do that for a few days, then half and half, ... you get the idea. There's less of a chance for tummy upset that way!

    My dogs have been eating either nutro or beneful dry and merrick or beneful wet. Been eating a combo of this for years. I've been reading a lot of negative things about the wet beneful food. About it making dogs sick... I've never had a problem with it. My dogs like it. They are 9 and 7 years old now.
