I'm amazed at the eye boogie problems with Wellness! I thought we were the ONLY ones with this issue.
Nature's Recipe is not bad at all. It's one of the better foods you will find at Petsmart for sure. If I had to pick between foods that Petsmart sells, it'd be that or Blue Buffalo. Nature's Recipe is a bit grain-heavy and not as much meat protein as I would like but some dogs do fines with grains.
I feed Nature's Variety Instinct and Jackson (my picky eater) LOVES it!
