Is there any good dog food without alfalfa?

The new dogfood isn't agreeing with Cooper. We've been having bouts of him vomiting. I think there is something in the food causing this, since it's the only new food & the vomiting started after him eating it a couple days. The other 2 dogs are doing fine on it.
Cooper has an allergy to alfalfa. Most all the really good dogfoods have some type of alfalfa in it.
I'm going to get a small bag of the chicken flavor of solid gold tomorrow. It has less ingredients. Suggestions welcome of a good food without alfalfa, please. :)

Sometimes you have to dig for ingredents. It doesn't say which foods it in, but they do use 3 types of alfalfa.
Here's the link:

Thanks for trying.

Nope the fruits, veggies and alfalfa are ONLY in the Innova

We sell all their foods so I should know.

The California Natural is JUST Lamb, rice and sunflower oil or Chicken, rice and oil

The Healthwise has a couple more ingredients but still no potatoes, fruits, veggies or alfalfa
