What large breed dog food is best for my Great Pyrenees puppy's health?

Question

My Great Pyrenees is turning a year old in less than two weeks and I am raising her with my 2 sisters. I have been doing research the last few months and worry that we have not been feeding her food that is best for a large breed and to help prevent future health problems. She currently eats the Rachael ray brand. So this is the ballpark of about what we would be able to spend on dog food. I heard that Iams for large breed puppies is about the same price. Any advice? how do I talk to my sisters? Pet's info: Dog | Great Pyrenees | Female | spayed | 11 months and 23 days old | 60 lbs

I personally would choose a food like Iams, science diet or royal canin over rachael ray simply because these companies have been around for a very long time and have done a lot of research to back their products. Some of these newer foods or "boutique" foods do not properly research their products and therefore, aren't as high quality as they claim. I would just tell your sisters this and see if they would be willing to switch. If you do decide to switch her to the new food, I would slow transition her from the old food to the new food over a 10-14 day period to prevent an upset stomach. I hope this helps!
