Pet's info: Dog | Black and Tan Coonhound | Male | neutered | 5 years and 1 month old | 75 lbs

I'm trying to find a good nutritional dog food to feed my pet ! I don't want all that garbage food !! My friend gave me some of her food that she feeds her dig , it's call Bill Jac, it says it's made with 5lbs of chicken for a 6lb bag !! But it's all chicken organs only !! Is that safe for a dig to eat !! I'm lost as to what good dog foods are out there , any help would be greatly appreciated , thank you !!! Sandra Stephens

Bill Jac is not my favorite. Natural balance limited ingredient diet is a good food which is grain free. But also the commercial diets that have been around for years like science diet, iams, and royal canine are all great foods. These foods do have grains in them but grains are okay for dogs as long as they do not have a grain allergy. Also, these foods have a lot of research to back them up which some of these newer "fancier" foods do not have that same amount of research. I hope this helps.
