Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Large (61lb +) | Male | neutered | 1 year and 10 months old | 70 lbs
I have two dogs that I am feeing Purina Pro Plan right now - and I know it's not the best for them so my husband and I are thinking about changing their food. Benny (the bigger one) has gained a little bit of weight but now much. He's almost 2. Cash is 8 months and smaller - seems to be holding up in size. I want to feed them the same thing and I wanted to do a NON grain-free food because I am worried about the studies saying it could cause heart issues. What food would you recommend?

Pro Plan is actually a good dog food. So unless your dogs have a problem with the food, I would not change. If you do indeed need to change dog food you can change to Royal Canine, Hill´s or Iams or any other reputable feed brand. Make sure you get a complete food for the size of your dogs. There is so much choice that it would be too much to list. I do not recommend Blue Buffalo as I have seen quite a few dogs on that brand who are not doing so well. Yes, definitely stay away from grain free dog food.
