My dog is healthy on Purina. Should I switch to grain-free food?

Question

my dogs are eating just fine and healthy on purina dog chow. is there any reason to switch to a grain free or more expensive type food? Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Large (61lb +) | Male | neutered | 5 years and 11 months old | 66 lbs

Nope, no reason to switch at all! Purina is the best of the supermarket brands, and it's absolutely fine to feed Cletus. I never recommend feeding grain free diets. They are a fad, and it's appearing to be a dangerous fad. Vets are seeing an increase in dogs with dilated cardiomyopathy who are on grain free diets, and the FDA is now investigating that link. Keep him on the Purina. I hope this helps!
