The breeder I'm buying from feeds her puppys Beneful so I bought a bag

Do you guys think it's okay or should I return it and look for something else?

Return it, asap! Beneful is an awful food, chock full of allergens and fillers.

IMO I would return it! The bag is pretty but what's inside is the pits

Do a search here on YT. There are many posts regarding good nutritious
foods. Start with Health and Diet.

The breeder I got Lexie from fed this too. I switched her over RIGHT away and she is doing GREAT!! She used to poo a TON and it was very watery and nasty. Ever since I switched her, she has little poos and it is the regular consistancy of poo. I feed her Ennova Ivo (All Life Stages) so I don't have to worry about her and Beau eating each other's food. She has also gained weight (the vet says she is VERY healthy now) and her energy is UP!

Good luck!

Chances are if you see a commercial on TV for it, it stinks! lol. Go with something like Canidae, Blue Buffalo, Innova, or Solid Gold. Those are the ones that so far I have found are good by looking at the ingredients... I am sure there are many more... but mostly I go by...
1. No TV Commercials... Commercial brands stink... Especially Kibbles & Bits lol
2. No By Product in any part of the ingredients...
3. No corn, especially not as the first ingredient... because its just filler and hard for dogs to digest.
