Hello! The size of a dog doesn't determine whether high protein is "bad". High protein is just fine (better, in my opinion) UNLESS there is a disease state that makes high protein a no-no (liver, pancreas etc). I just reviewed the ingredients - AWESOME! The only downside is that there are quite a few different meats in there - so if he IS sensitive to one, it would hard to determine which one. Pretty clean meats though (altho beef is sometimes a problem for some dogs).
Can you get ahold of Orijen - bc they make a 6-Fish high protein kibble - a really great option for allergies. Dogs generally go bonkers for the taste. I can't speak highly enough of Orijen, as far as kibbles go.
Are you supplementing w/ flax, EFAs or anything? That might help.
