My dog used to be on Nutro Natural Choice - recommended by a petsmart clerk... and his stool was always soft-runny and he went maybe three to five times a day. He was also very stinky. I switched him to Innova puppy food and let me tell you... the results were almost instantaneous. In a week, he stopped smelling bad and his stool became hard and he only went twice a day. It regulated his bowels so much I could not be happier. He looks better and has more energy. He will NOT go near the old food. We wanted to know if he had a taste preference as we suspected that he was eating less of his old food right before we made the switch. So we tried mixing the two foods and he would take a mouthful, spit it out on the ground, and only eat the Innova! This food is so great for him! I am so happy. Perfect ingredients for a young puppy. Do yourself and your dog a favor, educate yourself by going to [...]. Don't feed your dog Iams or the other big brands like Nutro, Pedigree, Beneful... They put the worst stuff in their foods!

Clear listing of ingredients and nutritional analyis. Appropriate meat content, high quality grains, fruits, vegetables and probiotics. My pup loves this food! His body must be absorbing all of the nutrients because he has very small "stools". His energy level is great and consistent throughout the day and his coat looks and feel great. This food is worth every penny!!! Made in the USA.

Long story short, I think my puppy is allergic to WHITE rice, which is ironic because that is what everyone tells you to feed your puppy when she has diarrhea. The situation got so bad I took her to the vet. Just want consumers to be aware of this possibility, that upgrading to premium dog food doesn't automatically mean better health for your dog! I've switched to another premium brand that has brown rice (which this does too) but not white rice. There was an *immediate* difference. (There were two other dog foods involved before and white rice was the major difference between the ones that upset my puppy's stomach and ones that didn't.)

I wanted to give 1 star, but to be fair, the problem with the food was interaction between it and my puppy in particular, so I'll split the difference.
