While I would probably opt to feed a food moderate in protein (about 24-30%), I also don't know of any research that suggests a higher protein diet will damage the kidneys. If the dog has certain preexisting diseases (liver, kidney, pancreas), lower protein foods may have to be given. It is really personally choice and going by the research that you have found and agree with.
Nature's Variety Raw Medallions are 68% moisture, so they need to be converted to a dry matter basis (the same goes for canned food). So with the water or moisture removed, the Organic Chicken Medallions would be about 41% protein.
