I wouldn't be concerned w/ most of the ingreds highlighted....except for flax - which I think is terrible for allergy dogs - and anyway fish oil is a better source for most dogs, imo; and the legumes is a little much in terms of digestive difficulties.

I like probios for dogs, a lot (as I do for humans too...with all the crap we eat and put our GI through; no different for doggies).

The salmon meal *could* be a concern if it's farm raised. In that case, you may want to consider a rotation diet to break up the fish.

Rosemary can cause probs in certain situations, and people sometimes get super riled up about it. Personally, I'd prefer a natural preservative like Rosemary vs something synthetic.

I think the site you linked to could be helpful in terms of learning about ingreds (taken w/ somewhat of a grain of salt)...but gosh, I can't figure out what the heck she recommends we feed if she thinks every ingred is a killer, ya know? I can't find a link on her site that says "What you SHOULD feed" - so that makes me wonder what the site is really about.

Are your kiddos doing well on this food? Or, are you hoping to change?
