This is the food Joey chose and he gives it 2 paws up! Lol, it was funny when you said it smelled better, most dog foods make me gag, but I love the way this smells! I don't agree with many of the dog food sites that grade food, most of the people doing the grading have had no training in nutrition, and learning about the way vitamins, minerals and amino acids work together, is such an important part. I do like this site, and I think it gives you information on how you can make a good food choice. Here what it says about corn:

Quote:
Myth: Corn and wheat are bad ingredients, they are hard to digest and common causes for allergies."

Truth:
Unless an individual dog is sensitive or allergic to corn or wheat, they are no better and no worse than other cereal grains, as long as they are used as a source of carbohydrates and not as a main source of protein, especially in combination with excessive use of gluten as another main ingredient. Depending on an individual dog's needs, some may be more suitable than others, for example in cases where a dog is gluten intolerant, barley is especially unsuitable, despite generally getting "better ratings" from uninformed sources. If you'd like to see a comparison of nutrients, please click here.
Joey likes the food so much, that I can use it for training, I really think it's important that a dog likes its food.
