I feed mine mainly Acana Freshwater fish. She’s 11 years old and still looks like and plays like a puppy, she has zero health problems.
BTW, I also give her canned Mackerel 2-3 times a week

why isn’t the CARNA4 venison recipe not on the list anymore?
LOVE carna4!
I noticed there is not any Hills listed.
It is what my Vet recommended and of course sells.
I need to have my Westie on a low fat food due to borderline pancreatitis.
Would someone please investigate appropriate protein levels for healthy adult dogs? My veterinarian and my dog’s breeder both said 22% -26%, with a stretch to 28%. Even some trainers will tell you that high protein levels can affect a dog’s behavior. Why then are there so many approved foods well over 30%? Two dogs ago, I fed a food whose protein levels have skyrocketed to 32% – 36%. For now, I’m following the vet’s and breeder’s advice, feeding a food with a 24% protein level. But I’d like to have a definitive answer.

I too, am curious about Blue Buffalo. It was, at one time, on the WDJ list of approved foods but has been absent in recent editions of this list. Way back when, we made the switch to Blue Buffalo based on the WDJ recommendation. Is Blue Buffalo the company that Melissa Paul is referring (in terms of good advertising0? Now we are simply confused. This list of “approved” foods could be more concise. And what about hydrolized foods for dogs with allergies?
Are freeze dried raw foods a scam?
I’m concerned because I just re subscribed. I had stopped before for the reasons stated above. I worked in veterinary medicine for 40 years before retiring. I saw all the fad diets come and go. I went to a lecture recently by a veterinary geneticist who stresses that today’s dogs are NOT wolves. Our pet dogs have evolved and need healthy grains in their diets.
If the product package has a wolf I run the other way. I am looking for a dry dog food made of ingredients from the US and made in the US. No fly by night brands. I want to know the number of recalls the plant has had. And no raw food. Is anyone else looking for something like this? Or has found it?
Unfortunately I see there are many brands listed that may or do source ingredients (usually vitamin/mineral mixes) from China. With all of the issues and recalls due to ingredients from China, I find that piece of information to be very important when choosing a food for my dogs. It would be helpful for that information to be noted on the list.
