Your dog is so lucky that you want to feed him the very best.
I have been breeding purebred dogs for the past 38 years. Two years ago, I began feeding Canidae. I have tried all the major premium brands of kibble, but since feeding Canidae, I would never want to feed anything else. My old dogs became younger, my pups grew better than ever, and the in between are robust with good health. My dog’s teeth don’t need cleaned, and they have Sweet breath.
Take a look at the ALL HUMAN GRADE ingredients, and notice that ALL users have been happy with it in the survey at the link below.

You won’t find those quality ingredients on any of the kibbles above…. :
Canidae may cost more per bag, but is a savings per monthly cost, as my large dogs eat less and waste(poop) less.
It is available in most good pet supply shops.
Science Diet is the “Cadillac” of dog foods. Iams is also a great food. Stay away from cheaper foods. If you don’t get it, check out the FDA web sight and search for toxins in dog foods. They are finding traces of pentobarbitol in cheaper foods. (stuff the use to euthanise animals)
The best thing for it is premium quality puppy chow, for her healths sake. Yes, they do cost a little more but you end up feeding less because it is all good food, not fillers that create problems. People feed the lesser quality foods then they ask questions like, “what can i give my dog to improve her/his skin, fur, breath? why is my dogs poop so big, soft stinky?” The good foods pretty much take care of all that. Like with people, good nutrition starts with good food. Quality foods and regular health/dental care is a must for a healthy dog. Some of the best brands include: California Natural, Solid Gold, Innova, Merrick and Wellness. Good luck
A good premium quality food will provide the most appropriate nutritional needs for your dog. Science diet dog food are considered to be among the tops (you can get them at most pet stores and a lot of vet clinics also carry some form of the non prescription types). Personally, I feed and like Natural Balance dog food… but that is because my dog has food allergies and their “novel” (or food source not common in other foods) has helped calm symptoms of food allergies. Eukanuba and Iams also have some good formulas on the market. Overall, be aware of foods with fillers… science diet ingredient lists are available I believe on their website… and if you have questions or concerns you can always rely on your vet for their input (many are willing to help, not just push you to buy their foods.)
There are several factors to consider when choosing a food for your dog. There are many very good brands of food out there, but which type you choose depends on the weight, age, activity level, health, and breeding of your dog. My best advice is to talk to your vet, the breeder of the dog(if applicable), or a pet food specialist. Many websites can help you decide also, but you may still want to talk to your vet. Petsmart offers a smart nutriotion selector at Although it only features the brands they offer it could be helpful.
I know there are a lot of fantastic puppy chow, but some of them can be rather pricey. The one I used when my dog, Border Collie, was a puppy was Purina Puppy Chow. Available in a lot of stores, healthy and reasonably priced (included more information in the Source.) When she got older, she loves, the Purina Dog Chow with lamb bits.

I prefer porterhouse steak myself, with a nice burgundy to go with it.
