Currently using 4health but that made a list for the possibility of heart problems. My dog is very important to me. What should I buy.

Mine gets Fromms Heartland Gold line. I get it through a local feed store but I don't know what their distribution is nationwide.

My dog food was on the list the FDA just put out (Earthborn Holistic). I just changed to a Science Diet product.

Hopefully Science Diet got their act in order. We got some from out vet earlier this year that was later recalled because of toxic vit D levels that killed several dogs. Thankfully we only used it for a few days.

The study basically implicated most grain free diets, although they don't know why.

Quote
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — A recent FDA investigation links several grain-free dog foods to a form of canine heart disease.

More than 500 cases were investigated and 16 dog food brands were listed. Acana had 67 cases, Zignature had 64 cases, and Taste of the Wild had 53 cases. Other brands listed include 4Health, Earthborn Holistic, Blue Buffalo, Nature's Domain, Fromm, Merrick, California Natural, Natural Balance, Orijen, Nature's Variety, Nutrisource, Nutro, and Rachael Ray Nutrish.

Another vote for the Costco Kirkland brand. My colleague is a Veterinarian, and did a 20 year stint in the dog food industry. Had him look over various brands to see what was best for dogs in our program...with an eye on nutrition and value..Kirkland was his pick. I now feed it at home, as do a few others in our circle.

I'm guessing no one keeps up with this stuff since 3 of the recommendations so far are brands implicated in causing heart disease.

We’d transitioned to feeding our Lab, Joe, grain free dog food because he had a grain allergy and just continued with the same food.

mmmmn?

Been feeding Taste of the Wild for a number of years now, no issues have shown up with our dogs.

Anyone have a link to the actual study? Were the cases mentioned dogs with a predisposing factor? Lack of exercise, genetic?

I'll let the wife know as she's the keeper of the dog food pantry.
