here is a great website about dog food brands, and what ingredients to avoid.. This person has done a lot of research on types of dog foods, and i know her from another forum, so if you guys have any questions, feel free to PM me.

WOW! Thanks for the sites! I learned so much on that first site! WOW! Royal Canin only has Chicken meal listed before the 1st source of fat (Chicken meal, rice, brown rice, chicken fat). Which means that there isn't a whole lot of animal proteins in the food.
I think the Chicken Soup for the Pet Lover's Soul looks like it is one of the best. It has SEVERAL different animal proteins listed (before the first source of fat)...Chicken, turkey, chicken meal, turkey meal, whole grain brown rice, whole grain white rice, oatmeal, potatoes, cracked pearled barley, millet, chicken fat.
I've learned what doesn't make RC the best food is NOT the amount of protein or fat (it's 28% protein and 18% fat-recommended for the Yorkie is 28% protein and 8% fat-so I've read). It's the ingredients. There isn't too much protein in the food, it's the ingredients in the food.
Well, I've learned a lot. Thanks for all of the information!
