I am not familiar with this type of dog food. In general, I tend to recommend Hill's Science Diet and the high end Purina products. My reason for this is because these are the only two brands who do extensive food testing on all of their diets prior to putting them on the market. I also feed Wellness to my own cats and dogs, but this is based simply on my own anecdotal positive experience with this diet. In terms of extra fiber, you can add small amounts of fruits and vegetables. Canned pumpkin is often a good addition that most dogs eat up. Hope this makes sense.

As long as it is a name brand food with an AAFCO label on it. This means it has been tested and meets specific standards. Typically royal canin, Purina, science diet, and Iams qualify for this. Be careful switching foods without suddenly as this can cause diarrhea. It is best to mix them and gradually switch it over a week

Both are good foods. I personally feed my dogs Iams, so if you wanted to switch to that, it's fine to do. It's important to know when switching foods to do it slowly so that Scooby doesn't get any GI upset. Start by mixing 75% old food and 25% new food, and feeding that for a couple of days. Over the course of two weeks, gradually increase the amount of new food and decrease the amount of old food until he is eating the new food only. Other brands I recommend include Royal Canin and Hill's Science diet, but those would be pricier than the Purina One and Iams. I hope this helps!

Iams. Grain free diets appear to have a link to heart disease in dogs (although the connection is not yet figured out). Iams is a good food that is safely made. I hope this helps and please feel free to post any additional questions.

Iams is perfectly healthy dog food! The ingredients in Blue Buffalo may appear different, but both diets are balanced in their nutrients and can provide an excellent diet for any dog. It sounds like your dog likes the Iams, so I see no reason to switch to something that could upset the balance.
