No offense but I don't really like any of those foods you've listed, and Dog Chow is just crap (IMHO). What about Nutro or another comparable food? You'll find that many foods are high in corn and other undesirable ingreds and many times those ingreds can cause gas and other sensitivities. If you can afford it, feed a human grade, baked food like Wellness or Innova. I know they're expensive and I only feed Millie Wellness. Chester is allergic to everything an the Venison and rice is the best for him and his various problems.

If you can't afford the human grade, at least step up to Nutro or Nature's Recipe. Dog Chow is just full or fillers and you'll find that if you up the grade of the food, he'll develop better muscle tone, have a better coat, less gas, and you'll have less to pick up in the yard, too! Nutro & Nature’s recipe aren’t that expensive.
