It's not the same food/formula that it was when they made a name for themselves. Even if they just change suppliers it changes the food, but going to mass production required a lot of product, supplier and quality control changes.

I wouldn't feed it to mine just because I really don't have a lot of faith in the corporation, they aren't quick to recall if something comes up, and their primary motivation is financial instead of nutritional.

That being said, I know a lot of people who use it will have dogs who are just fine.. I'm just an over protective mommy to my fur baby..
I think that any young and healthy dog will do alright for a few years on something like Eukanuba but it's the years after 6 or 7 that you are going to start seeing problems. You can't feed a dog a mostly corn and other grain diet with artificial vitamins and not end up with side effects down the road. Our dogs are coming down with cancer and diabetes at record rates.
