Pet's info: Dog | Pomeranian | Female | unspayed | 8 months and 26 days old
I buy Purina Beneful Healthy bites for my almost nine month old pup and she seems to like it but the thing is she eats whenever she wants or I suppose whenever she's hungry and I went to the vetanarian and they say she's healthy and at a good weight so I was wondering if there would be any other dog food that would best suit her breed. I don't want to give her wet food because I don't want her stools to become moist.

If Nala is doing well on the Purina, there's no need to change her food, but if you wanted to try another brand, I recommend Royal Canin, Hill's Science diet, Purina ProPlan, or Iams. Should you make the decision to switch her food, be sure to do it slowly to avoid GI upset. Mix together the old food and new food, and over the course of two weeks, slowly increase the amount of new food and decrease the amount of old food until Nala is eating the new food only.
