Brown rice is fine to use in dogs. I've been using brown rice for almost all of Barney's 11 years and now that he has had pancreatitis twice from Wellness dog food which was about 22% fat-in-a-can, his vet nutritionist still recommends brown rice on the diet she designed for him. She says I can do white as well, or even 50/50. Barney also can substitute his rice for other things like pasta, bread, white potatoes, etc.... He is not permitted to have sweet potatoes with his history.
