Hi
There are different ideas about dog food and when it comes to it it's really about finding the right food to suit your dog.
There is a site called all about dog food that's good for understanding the ingredients in dog food and how to read dog food labels which can be a mine field!
I do raw feed Reese now but buy complete raw, his favourite is Luna and me, we have just received a batch from Poppy's picnic which he is seeming to enjoy but he won't eat nutriment (it's more mushy and does contain more blood) I do keep some of his allowance back and feed him a cold pressed dog food called guru for treats etc or in place of raw if I am away. This way of feeding seems to suit Reese best. Healthy, full of energy, glossy coat and firm poos.
I have tried him on other really good food in the past. So much conflicting information I hedged my bets when he was a pup and fed morning kibble and evening meat from wet food to start with then slowly introduced raw. Kibble he had orijen or millies wolfheart and wet food was millies wolfheart or Lily's kitchen. He would eat them all no bother and he still was health full of life and glossy coat but he did have more frequent and soft poo.
We can tell you what we feed but what suits one may not another, I would try to understand labels buy some samples see if your dog likes the food and if it suits him.
