I am getting ready to welcome a 7 week standard poodle puppy into our home. After discovering that the Iams I fed my last toy poodles was crap I have spent today and yesterday reading, reading, and reading about dog food. Raw is not an option for me.
It is all so confusing!! too high protein, no grains, feed adult and not puppy food. Grrrrr.
I would feed Orijen large breed puppy food b/c it seems like the best, but I am concerned about the high protein. I have read that it is too high for large breed puppies.
I was looking at Acana large breed puppy food b/c it was lower, but it does have grains, although good, high quality grains per dogfoodanalysis.com.
I was calling around my local pet stores to see who sold what and a lady was telling me about Fromms. The Four Star Fromms seemed promising, but it is an all stage and not sure if a large breed puppy food would be better. They do have a Fromm puppy food, which I believe is a 4 star food like Acana.
Any thoughts or advice.
Thanks!
Kim
