Once they have settled it and been given a clean bill of health by the vet you can consider changing the food if you choose to. There are certainly better quality foods out there then Eukanuba for not much more money.

If this is your only dog- I suggest you look into a high quality puppy food to start off with. Find a pet store or feed store in your area and see if they give samples out- this is the best way to pick out a food, it allows you to see what your dog likes before you buy a whole bag.

Some brands you might want to look for include: Wellness, FROMM, natures variety, Merrick, Blue Buffalo, Orijen, Acana, etc. These are just a few I can think of, there are plenty more.

Good Luck! Finding a food that your dog both likes and does well on can be a struggle.
Great post!

I would never feed nor recommend Eukanuba. It's what Jackson came to me on and he only ate it for 2 days with me before I switched.

The only foods I'd recommend personally are the ones ArmaniMan listed above... but I'll add one more: Go! Endurance. It's an awesome food, great company, great ingredients, they also make Now! I personally feed Orijen Regional Red and Acana Grasslands, and I would feed anything made by that company.
