Hi there! I'm afraid formulating an appropriate diet for a dog with a medical condition like this is quite a complex undertaking, so it's a bit outside the scope of what we can do on a forum like this. I would recommend getting in touch with a veterinary nutritionist for a consult - he/she can help you put together a complete and balanced diet that is also appropriate for his bladder stones. You can find more information on how to do this here: http://www.acvn.org/nutrition-consults/
