Hi I'm a new yorkie mom! I'm feeding Lily Royal Canin small breed puppy. She loves it . I've heard this is a great food? any suggestions? or comments on Royal Canin brand.

I've never used it but I do hear that it's a good food and I've heard that a lot of people do like it

Honestly I have heard that it isn't the greatest. Altho I know a lot of people here do use it and seem to love it.

Most people suggest looking at this link and choosing something on the 5 star list. The foods on the 6 star list are too high in protein.

The bottom line is finding something that they will eat.

I think the reason why some say it isn't that good is because of the corn gluten meal. I have heard that some can have an allergy to it. I know that the beet pulp was a problem for Diesel. It caused his eyes to water really bad. When I switched his food and took out the beet pulp it all cleared up. All dogs are different so if this is working for you then I wouldn't change.
