Real Nature seems to be a very high quality food, it is not one i am familiar with but the ingredient list is quite impressive. if he is doing well on this brand i would probably stick with it. other excelent options include Orijen, Acana and taste of the wild.

Hello. Grain free labeling is more of a marketing to rather than an indication of a good food. I encourage brands that have passed the AAFCO food standards (it would say that on the bag usually by the nutritional information). These brands include Purina, Science Diet, Pedigree, Eukanuba, Blue Buffalo- In changing diets remember that sudden changes can be hard on the GI tract so gradually mixing in the new food is best.

No problem! Happy to help! From what I could research, it appears Bewi's standards for food production are exceptional. All the protein products that come from animals are human grade- meaning they are also approved for human food which is impressive. A lot of dog foods out there do not meet this standard. They also have rigorous quality control testing which is another good mark!

Dry food is the most convenient food for us and also the least expensive, so that has been the most common way to feed dogs. There are a number of companies that now offer fresh food diets to various degrees. One of my favorite options is dehydrated food from The Honest Kitchen which is both convenient and good quality. In general, canned food tends to be a little higher quality than dry food. They are not limited by the restrictions that require enough carbohydrates to be put into a dry food. But feeding canned food alone can be very expensive for a large dog, so most people feed a combination of canned and dry. If you do that, make sure that Leo eats all the food at once and doesn't leave some kibble coated with canned food for later (which can be a problem for bacterial growth). I would also recommend a slow transition with any diet changes. I hope that was helpful. Thanks for using Boop by Petco.

You have a lot of flexibility since she's a young/middle age adult, and I'm assuming she's healthy. Basically any food made by a reputable company is going to be fine for her. There has been more and more evidence coming out recently that grain-free diets aren't healthy for dogs (linked to a particular type of heart failure called Dilated Cardiomyopathy) and raw food also presents risk of salmonella and e.coli to both the dog and family around the dog, so I'd generally recommend staying away from both of those options. The brands I like are Hills, Purina, and Royal Canin because they have veterinary nutritionists on staff, have good quality control, and generally make solid products. I hope that helps a bit!
