Purina Pro Plan salmon, Blue Buffalo salmon/chicken canned dog food plus small amounts of elk and venison for my 8 1/2 year old GSP. She can still quail hunt all day. I do give her Next Level joint fluid and it seems to work.

Dogs shouldnt eat better than us. Most of our plant based foods are based on what is easy and cheap to grow on the industrial scale. With even those being genetically modified to be grown easier and cheaper than the varieties of a century ago. Our pork and chicken is likewise based on breeds that are most feed and time efficient to produce.

My wife and I fed our pooch Purina Dog Chow for years. We did throw in leftovers from our dinner table at times. He was healthy until near the end. He died when he was a bit over 17 years old. If I were to get another dog, I'd probably go back with Purina.
FWIW.

Same experience, lw. Dogs live long, healthy, active lives. Of course they get scraps too.
Never had a food related health issue. But, we have pet dogs, not wild wolves.

My lab had problems, urine crystals and peeing uncontrollably, with high protein "performance" dog foods. The vet said the food is "too hot." Switched him to Hills science diet adult, which has 23-24% protein instead of 30% and it fixed it. He's 75lbs of muscle.
