I apologize if anyone is tiring of seeing my many posts regarding food for my babies...I can't help from obsessing over this issue!

I've been researching grain-free kibble. We are in the process of changing our adult maltipoo's food from Pedigree (okay, now I know it's not a good choice

) to EVO. The EVO is our first grain free to try and she is eating it okay (we're still mixing in her old food at the moment). We are hoping to get our two yorkie babies (almost 9 weeks now) off of RC to a grain free as well (we'd LOVE for all three to eat the same food!).

My question...during my research, I have noticed very differing opinions about how much protein is good for a dog's diet. I'm torn on this issue, so please share your thoughts on this with me. If you have articles or websites share those as well.
