Instinct contains 42% protein but its top 6 are; Chicken Meal, Tapicoca, Chicken Fat( preserved with tocopherels and citric acid), Pumpkinseeds, Menhaden Fish Meal, and Alfalfa Meal: 3 incomplete proteins in the top 5.

Orijen contains 40% crude protein and its top 6 are;Fresh deboned chicken, chicken meal, turkey meal, russet potato, fresh deboned pacific salmon (a natural source of DHA and EPA), herring meal. Too much chicken and not enough red meat for me, but it does contain quality fish for fatty acids.

Fromm contains 24% crude protein, and its top 6 are; Duck, Chicken Meal, Chicken, Brown Rice, Pearled Barley, Oatmeal, Menhaden Fish Meal. Only 2 complex carbs in the top 5, but not a lot of protein.

Hope this helps you with your decisions.

We have considered the Evo before. I guess what I'm having a hard time trying to decide is it too much to go to a food with 42% protein (nature's variety is around 26% I believe) for their kidneys and what about activity level? I mean they run and play in the yard and house, but I'm not sure what part that should play in the decision.
I appreciate you posting this info!!
