Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Usually if the diet you are using is of high quality, it should be ok as a long term diet. That is why I recommend diets made by companies like Royal canin, Purina and Science Diet as they have extensive research on these diets to confirm that they are a good all around diet for a dog. Again, if you are feeding a high quality diet made by a good company, you should be fine. Good luck!
