Corn is in RC formula for Yorkies too, and if it caused that many problems, you'd think they would take it out. We tend to hear about the dogs who are allergic, and not the ones who are doing ok on it. I've been reading about Blue Buffalo, and it's rated pretty high, but, it contains potatoes instead of corn, and I just would like a good answer on why potatoes are better, or are they just better for dogs who have allergies? Corn is said to be just a cheap filler, but potatoes are even cheaper. So much of what you read, is people repeating what others have said, but not understanding the concept behind it. Not saying i do. You might want to research Blue Buffalo as well as Natures Valley. Anyway, I've been tempted to try it, but I'm a little afraid. I'm not one that believes in switching back and forth. Dogs seem to experience so many difficulties when their diets are altered, and while it's true humans need variety in the diets, we don't vomit and have diarrhea, when a new food is offered. Best of luck with your new puppy.
