What about Canidae? It's the best dog food on the market, in my opinion.

Yea, the protein is pretty high. It's wheat and grain free. They only get 1/4 to 1/2 cup. I have had no problems with weight gain in either of them, good stools, cleen teeth, shiny coats, etc.

Innova Evo is a good food but it's not recommended for puppies bc of the high protein content. It's a good choice for adult dogs, though.

My Gracie Lou loves Artemis for Small Adults--the kibbles are the smallest I've ever seen. It was recommended by the vet--when you open the bag it smells like salmon. Gracie just loves it.

Natural Balance Organic. It has fresh human grade chicken in it as well
as all orgainic veggies.

Royal Canin Yorkshire Terrier food. I know that some of you are concerned about Royal Canin, but we have had good luck with it.

I feed wellness and the bites are small enough for Armani. .sometimes if he wont eat them I soak them in just a little water.

Canidae, I did so much research to get mine off of Iams and Canidae was number one in my book. Even better, the company sent free samples AND we switched him right over with absolutely no digestive problems, the reason we didn't do it gradually is because he did so well when i gave him just the samples and I didn't mix any Iams in at the time so i could see exactly how well he liked it and how much he ate!!
