That is very true!!!! Dogs, especially puppies need lots of protein. Meat, bones and organs are a canine's natural diet. Excess protein will get flushed out with the urine. What dogs don't need are carbs (grain of any kind that includes brown rice). If dogs need veggies is being debated to death. I personally feed Orijen and Evenger whenever I have to board my dogs as the facility unfortunatly does not allow raw or cooked. NO KIBBLE is perfect or even the best way to feed our dogs but if you must, choose one that has NO GRAIN in it. Innova and Orijen have no grain. I prefer Orijen over Innova.
For people in the USA you can go to k9kitchen (dot net) and if your order totals 50 buck then it ships free!
