Great question! I highly recommend Royal Canin, Hill's Science Diet, Purina ProPlan, or Eukanuba brands of dog food. These four brands have veterinary nutritionists on staff to make sure the food is formulated for a dog's nutritional needs. I personally feed my pets Royal Canin, so I would recommend giving Lucky Royal Canin toy breed adult dog food. I hope this helps!
