I have used Fromm for years and always been very pleased with their products. Their Four Star line does have grains in it which doesn't bother me for most dogs, but some people do not like that. I have not used the Nulo line before. In looking at their ingredients, they have very good ingredients. One word of caution though if you have a Cavalier is that they are generally not high energy dogs or athletes, so the Nulo line might have more protein and fat than she needs. If you decide to try Nulo with her, you might select one of the lower fat diets. I always tell clients that there is no perfect food. You have to try it with your pet and see how they do on it. It doesn't matter if it has all the right ingredients, if your dog doesn't do well on it. I think both lines are good foods, so select one and see how Chloe does on it. I hope that was helpful. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.

    Both foods are equally good, both are excellent quality dry foods and you cam chose either of them, you can't go wrong here. it's quite easy to identify a high quality food, just analyze the ingredients and their concentration, with these two foods you can find very high quality ingredients on the top of the list which is the most important.
