above is the guarentee analysis of bot nutro on top and exclusive on the bottom what you get as a guaranteed analysis is more important i feel than actual ingrediants many pet food try to confuse people by listing ppm instead of mg/kg so 1 mg/kg = 1 ppm so in the anaylisis nutro on these items except for lcarnitine are higher (and remember the guaranteed analysis is after the food has been processed not before)

so use a simple conclusion if your dog is doing well on what you have him on then stick with it.
but one thing for sure you ask about food on this forum and regardless of what your feeding it will be junk in others eyes. you'll hear that purina/iams/eukenuba nutro/pro plan are the devils spawn but if your dog does well on them they are good to go and if it wasnt for these above companies doing 90% or better of all the resurch on foods in the past and ongoing the designer foods wouldnt even be here because they do little or no resurch they copy and replace with human grade ingrediants which draw the american dog owner.
