My dogs won't eat dry food after table scraps. What healthy dry food?

Question

My parents have a 15 yr old Lab & a 7yr old German Shepard/Pit mix. Both have been used to table scraps mixed with their dry food. Mom's idea. I'm trying to feed them strictly DRY food now. They don't want to eat. Plse give me at least 2-3 choices of DRY food they will eat. More healthy, tasty for them. Does GRAIN FREE help? I've tried Pedigree, Pure Bal.,Fresh Pet, Gravy Train, Kibbles & Bits. I want them healthy but happy & eating too! Plse help me find a healthy, tasty, solution! Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Medium (23 - 60lb) | Male | neutered | 4 years and 2 months old | 60 lbs

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.
