Yes, and dogs are not pure carnivores, but opportunistic. No one said a dog NEEDED corn, it's a source of carbs, I don't believe a dog food should be 100% protein. It is not difficult to digest if it's cooked. I believe corn got a bad name because some dog food companies used it to boast the total protein count because it's contains several amino acids, but it lacks a couple, so it shouldn't be used as the primary protein in some expert’s opinion.
